Description
Summary:博士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 機械工程學系 === 86 === Owing to the failure design of ice-storage chiller and improper operation of ice-storage air-conditioning system, the goal of shifting peak and off- peak power consumption does not achieve well. This thesis consists of three major parts: development a series of design guidelines for ice-storage chiller, establishment of the control strategy for melting process, and evaluation a better operation strategy for an ice-storage air-conditioning system. First, an ice-storage chiller is theoretically and experimentally investigated , and some design guidelines are also provided to serve as a reference for better design purpose. Next, we establish a control strategy for melting process by continuously checking the return water temperature. Finally, general-purpose software for evaluating the control method (chiller priority and storage priority) and strategy (full storage and partial storage) is also proposed. We evaluate these management methods with six different type of cooling load, and discuss with several important factors. Such as: two or three periods of charge, energy and demand charge ratio of peak and off-peak hours, cost of equipments, discount rate and inflation rate, and the design concept of ice-storage chiller (single and dual evaporator). The payback period and total saved electrical costs of 25 years in present value are used as indicators.
