Abstract
The heat metering of heating is a main link in energy conservation of ventilating air-conditioning (VAC) heating. It is of great practical significance to study the heat metering of heating. However, not many scholars have estimated the heat index based on building heating area, in the light of thermal comfort. Therefore, this paper estimates the heat index of VAC heating area considering thermal comfort. Firstly, we analyzed the various factors affecting human thermal comfort. Then, four environmental factors were selected, namely, indoor air temperature, relative air humidity, mean radiation temperature of envelope surface on human body, and indoor vertical air error. In addition, we selected suitable thermal comfort indices to predict and assess the thermal environment under indoor VAC heating. After that, we analyzed the indoor heat flow under VAC heating, examined the components of energy consumption of indoor VAC heating, and estimated the heat index of VAC heating area. Next, a mathematical model was constructed for heat metering, according to the heat consumption of the building VAC, and the composition of the heat consumption of occupants. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed thermal metering model.
