Title: A Simple Method to Estimate Public Building Envelope Cooling Load
Abstract: Envelope cooling load is an important part of building cooling load.Traditional calculation methods to building envelope cooling load require a large number of detailed building information.However,the limited information can only be controlled in the urban planning stage,such as building function,building height,floor area ratio and so on.All of that limits the application of traditional methods.In this paper,the public building is divided into 24 types according to the characteristics of urban planning stage,the different values of building shape coefficient and the window wall ratio.A simple method to estimate public building envelope cooling load is proposed.Take Beijing for example,a simple estimation formula for each type of building is proposed.The relationship between building envelope cooling load and the bottom side of building,building height and shape coefficient is analyzed.
