[more ▼] The example presented here concerns the audit of a typical, medium-size, office building erected in Brussels at the end of the sixties. This building is equipped with a classical old fashioned air conditioning system with air handling units and four-pipes induction units. In the first part of the paper, a classical audit procedure is applied. It consists in a systematic analysis of all information available, with help of very simple calculation. In the second part of the paper, an equation-based building-HVAC simulation tool is used to assist the audit. Fuel and electricity consumption are then interpreted and significant energy saving opportunities are identified.

[more ▼] The example presented here concerns the audit of a typical, medium-size, office building erected in Brussels at the end of the sixties. This building is equipped with a classical “old fashion” air conditioning system with induction units. An audit procedure is developed and tested “in way”. It consists in a systematic analysis of all information available, with help of very simple calculation. Not all the orders of magnitudes of the fuel and mostly of the electricity consumption can be interpreted, but very significant energy saving opportunities are already discovered.
