Abstract
SUMMARY In this paper the economic analysis of the energy recovery in all-outdoor-air HVAC systems for the Italian climate is performed. The energy recovery device considered here is the same for both heating and cooling periods. During the summer season, the energy saving is achieved by evaporative cooling. The performances of the hybrid innovative HVAC system and the traditional system are calculated hour by hour by following the test reference year (TRY) prole. Such analysis is carried out taking into account simultaneously, the trend of some climatic indexes computed in order to (i) better understand the in#uence of climate on the HVAC system behaviour, (ii) obtain a swift feasibility analysis of the energy recovery system and (iii) perform a rough operating cost estimate of the traditional HVAC system.
