DE-13-C022 -- Energy Analysis of a District Cooling Plant with a Proposed Energy Saving Using Lake as a Heat Sink Substitution PDF

Renewable energy resources and solutions are the main concern, nowadays; lack of energy is the future nightmare .The world HVAC associations are implementing codes from the beginning of the design stage for energy savings. The research paper investigates an existing energy problem in a district cooling plant in Egypt. The existing price for electricity is high which affected the price of the ton refrigerant produced by the district cooling plant which is sold to all the buildings in areas of the district .The research investigates and make use of an artificial lake and propose that the lake is a solution as heat sink instead of the existing cooling towers. The methodology for the above research was carried out by site temperature measurement and energy modeling perspective for a sample chiller of the district cooling plant.
