Change-over natural and mechanical ventilation system energy consumption in single-family buildings
Abstract
The parameters of the outside air in Poland cause that in winter it is reasonable to use a mechanical ventilation equipped with a heat recovery exchanger. The time of spring, autumn, summer evenings and nights are often characterized by the parameters of the air, which allow for a natural ventilation and reduce the electricity consumption. The article presents the possibilities of energy consumption reduction for three energy standards of buildings located in Poland, ventilated by a change–over hybrid system. The analysis was prepared on the assumption that the air–to–water heat pump is the heat source for the buildings.
