Mathematical modelling and simulation of a sanitary hot water for a Dormitory using T*SOL software

Session

Energy Efficiency Engineering

Description

Electricity is a necessary prerequisite for a sustainable economic development of the Republic of Kosovo. Therefore, efforts are constantly being made to improve the service to consumers and encourage the construction of new energy capacities. Participation of energy consumption in household is still dominant - about 41.4% of the total consumption in Kosovo, 15% of this energy used for domestic hot water. In this study, using T*SOL software a model of a sanitary hot water has been developed and simulated for a Dormitory nr.8 at student city of Prishtina, Kosovo. The mathematical model is calculated based in demand, means how many liters of hot water are needed for this Dormitory, for this it is necessary to know the number of beds. Based on this the daily average sanitary hot water consumption is 5400[l], knowing that the average sun duration for the city of Pristine is 5.44[h], while the average horizontal irradiation is 3.79[kWh/m²] per day. Two different simulation approaches have been considered, based from simulation, for this system that serv for sanitary hot water, the temperature from 45˚C to 60˚C: the average total solar fraction for Dormitory nr.8 is 54%, the average solar contribution is 51506 kWh, the average CO 2 emissions is 12495.5 kg.
