A new approach for predicting cooling degree-hours and energy requirements in buildings
Oktay, Z.; Coskun, C.; Dincer, I. - In: Energy 36 (2011) 8, pp. 4855-4863
This study develops a novel approach to predict the outdoor temperature fluctuations during daytime as a dimensionless temperature variation coefficient. In this approach, the daily outdoor temperature trend is established by using the daily maximum and minimum temperatures. A case study is...
