[en] It is now clearly assumed that solar assisted air conditioning is able to minimize
environmental impact and CO2 production of buildings operation. How to reach
highest energy savings is still a work in progress. In former literature, equipment
control has been point out as a critical feature of energy consumption. Control
becomes more and more important as system is complex. The complete simulation
environment was developed in previous work, it includes the absorption chiller
itself, the rejection circuit (cooling tower), solar panels field, heater, storage device,
pumps, heating-cooling networks, emission system and building. TRNSYS software
modular approach provides the possibility to model and simulate this complete
system. In this article, different strategies are proposed to minimize consumption for
air-conditioning.
