Energy consumption of HVAC system play a big role on the whole building energy usage. Recommissioning on HVAC system can improve build comfort and its performance. Taking the recommissioning of public office as an example, the issue of the energy consumption of HVAC system was found, control scheme of chilled and hot water system and AHUs was optimized, the new energy saving control scheme was determined, and the actual energy consumption was analysed. The result show that recommissioning for the public office building achieved obviously effect, and the rate of energy saving is 18%, 33% and 10% for chilled water, hot water and electricity, respectively.

In a highly developed living, people are always looking for a comfortable indoor environment with minimum energy use. Individual air-conditioning system (IACS) can create an individual thermal environment control in a workroom which can contribute to save air-conditioning energy. In this study, we analyze the airflow circulation cell of the IACS with varied outlet port opening and outlet port position dimensions using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique. We created an IACS, two workstations, lightings, and a cabinet in a 3-dimensional room. The fluid was assumed to be Newtonian, unsteady, and incompressible. A Bossinesq approximation was determined in order to consider the buoyancy effect. We examined the effects of the outlet port opening and outlet port position on airflow circulation establishing process. Air temperatures along the various midline of the occupied zone were predicted and compared for a range of outlet port opening and outlet port position by using non-dimensional form. We also showed the occupied zone temperature at various planes in the workroom. Results will indicate the suitable outlet port opening and outlet port position for maintaining individual satisfied occupants’ requirements and improving energy saving potential.
