Enthalpy estimation for thermal comfort and energy saving in air-conditioning systems

[[abstract]]The thermal comfort control of a room must consider not only the thermal comfort level but also energy saving. This paper proposes an enthalpy estimation that is conducive for thermal comfort control and energy saving. The least enthalpy estimator (LEE) combines the concept of human thermal comfort with the theory of enthalpy to predict the load for a suitable setting pair in order to maintain more precisely the thermal comfort level and save energy in the air conditioning system.[All rights reserved Elsevier[[fileno]]2030112010016[[department]]電機工程學
