Buildings consume a large amount of energy across all sectors of society, and a large
proportion of building energy is used by HVAC systems to provide a comfortable and healthy …

The heating tower heat pump (HTHP) is proposed as an alternative to the conventional air-
source heat pump (ASHP). To investigate the performance improvements of the HTHP over …

The evaluation and optimization of existing operation strategies are significant for energy-
saving in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. The personalized …

A chiller plant with a water-side economizer (WSE) system is an environmental technology
that utilizes the low-grade natural cooling source to optimize the cooling supply and reduce …

This study investigates the potential energy savings in commercial buildings through
optimized operation of a multi-chiller plant. The cooling load contributes 45–60% of total …

The design, commissioning, and retrofit of heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC)
control systems are crucially important for energy efficiency. However, designers and control …

Minimizing the energy usage of the parallel pump and chiller system is a crucial method for
lowering buildings' energy consumption. The variations in the cooling load of buildings …

Thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) in buildings are ideal resources to provide
regulation services for power systems. As large-scale and centralized TCLs with high …

This study applies the k nearest neighbour (kNN) regression to ascertain optimal operating
strategies for a chiller system, hence lowering its carbon emissions. First, 19 operating …

Various studies have been conducted to develop energy efficient measures for chiller plants.
In these studies, much attention has been paid to equipment retrofits and various optimal …
