Abstract

The wide range of people occupancy of multi-function large spaces in annual operation allows the consideration of outdoor air control strategy. Three different controls for outdoor air supply are proposed, namely, the delayed outdoor air control, the outdoor air demand control and the average outdoor air volume control. The Taipei Arena was used as the case study. Due to the dilution effect of a large space less outdoor air supply was found to be feasible while maintaining good indoor air quality in different modes of operation. Therefore cooling load due to outdoor air can be greatly reduced. In consequence much energy can be saved for treating outdoor air. An annual energy simulation shows that for the case study, 9.21% of energy can be saved applying the delayed outdoor air control, 11.58% for the demand control of outdoor air, and 11.56% for the average outdoor air volume control.
