In recent years with the sustainable development of economy, the energy consumption of air conditioning system has accounted for over 40% of the total of buildings in China. Energy conservation has become an important issue. Various energy wastes exist in the operation process of central AC systems. So the central air conditioning system of energy saving has great potential. Central air conditioning load changes with time-varying characteristics, the load and operating conditions are influenced by various factors such as season, weather, traffic and environmental conditions changing and so on. They are always changing, and always fluctuating. Even in the day, morning and evening have temperature changes. According to statistics it is only a short time for the occurrence of most buildings’ maximum load time, and air conditioning systems are running at part load conditions in most time. If air conditioning system operating control way cannot change load according to the dynamic adjustment, which necessarily causes enormous energy waste. In this paper, with the help of a typical building located in Baoding, China, the simulation of a central air-conditioning system was carried out. First, the simulation models of main equipments of a central air conditioning system are established. Second, according to the actual loads, simulation of the different energy control modes and the operation schemes were carried through. Third, the simulation curves were obtained. Finally, based on the comparison of simulation curves, the optimal energy saving control mode and the operation scheme of the central air conditioning system were analyzed, the energy saving potentials existing in the actual operating process were proposed. All these above will be very important for the AC system operation optimization of building energy-efficient and air conditioning system operation and management.

For ocean-going vessels sailing in different areas on the sea, the change of external environment factors will cause frequent changes in load, traditional ship air-conditioning system is usually designed with a fixed cooling capacity, this design method causes serious waste of resources. A new type of sea-based air conditioning system is proposed in this paper, which uses the sea-based source heat pump system, combined with variable air volume, variable water technology. The multifunctional cabins’ dynamic loads for a ship navigating in a typical Eurasian route were calculated based on Simulink. The model can predict changes in full voyage load. Based on the simulation model, the effects of variable air volume and variable water volume on the energy consumption of the air-conditioning system are analyzed. The results show that: When the VAV is coupled with the VWV, the energy saving rate is 23.2%. Therefore, the application of variable air volume and variable water technology to marine air conditioning systems can achieve economical and energy saving advantages.

Due to energy reserves reduces gradually and uneven distribution, all countries pay more and more attention to energy saving and improve the effective utilization of energy, China also attaches great important to this. Energy saving of buildings is a necessary development trend. Air conditioning system as a large important part of building energy consumption has a huge energy-saving potential. This article mainly introduced the related strategies of energy saving in central air conditioning water system from the following three points of view: the water treatment, the cooling tower, and the variable frequency pump.
