Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 冷凍與低溫科技研究所 === 96 === Benchmarking the energy efficiency for cooling degree day in buildings is an important tool to promote the efficient use of energy. This paper develops a benchmarking process for energy efficiency for cooling purposes by means of data envelopment analysis and cooling degree hour method. The research begins by using climate data to calculate cooling degree hour and proceeds to build an index of total performance of energy for cooling purposes by linear regression method using energy consumption of building as dependent variable and cooling degree hour as independent variable. Finally, using data envelopment analysis, this study benchmarks the energy efficiency for cooling purposes in buildings with the index of total performance of energy for cooling by removing the effect of building scale factors, such as floor area and number of occupants. An application to office buildings in Taiwan is presented to illustrate the development and the use of the evaluating method.
