Field Measurement of Heating System in a Hotel Building in Harbin

Heating energy consumption in winter is an important component of the whole building energy consumption in the severe cold zone in north China. This paper presents a heating water system of a hotel building in Harbin, finishes the testing of its heating energy consumption in winter under operational conditions, and presents an stimation index of the performance of an exchanger, pump and motor. Analysis of device running conditions based on testing data is conducted. Results show that low stream supply temperature and wide-range flow fluctuation mainly lead to unhealthy working conditions of the device and excessive energy consumption, and a corresponding improved method is presented.
