Özet:

 

Energy is a requirement of all industrialised
nations, and variations in its availability can be dangerous and disruptive. The
majority of the energy consumed in buildings is spent for heating and cooling
to ensure the thermal comfort of human beings in all parts of the world. Energy
analysis plays a vitally important in the design of heating, ventilation and
air conditioning (HVAC) systems at affordable and efficient cost in residential
areas. Buildings are in need of heating in cold weather. The mean daily outside
air temperature is an important guide in predicting the amount of fuel needed
to heat residential buildings. The amount of fuel required to heat an area, a
city or a region can be accurately forecasted based on the outside air
temperature. One of the well-accepted methods internationally is the heating
degree-day (HDD) method, which is employed for the energy analysis. This paper
considers for İzmit, the capital district of Kocaeli province, which is located
on the western coast of Turkey and aims to calculate the annual heating energy
requirement and natural gas consumption at a base temperature of 15oC
by considering different type of glass, glazing area percentage (GAP), air
exchange rate (ACH), and the number of people (n) living in a prototype building. It was predicted that in the
worst condition (single-glazing), natural gas consumption would be about fourfold
higher than the best condition (triple-glazing) if it is thought that 60 people
live in an apartment building.
