energy performance analysis of adnan menderes international airport

The total number of AHU is 71 and Figure 3.3 indicates how much AHU’s
working capacity was obtained measured data from six months in 2008. These results
were obtained assuming that the AHUs are working at full capacity in a 24 hour period.
as:
Figure 3.3. Energy Consumption Working Capacity of the AHUs in 2008.
The potantional for energy saving depends on the specific characteristics such
• reduce heating and cooling loads,
• appropriate indoor enviremental quality
Total energy consumption of the building decreases by year, because of the
retrofit of the construction elements in ADM building. The electricity consumption of
HVAC equipments is decreased 15% in 2008.
Based on measurements following comments were obtained. While heating and
cooling system pumps were examined, it will be seen that the energy used in both
pumps, which feed heating and cooling for fan coils constitute 10 percent of energy.
Therefore, 90 percent of heating and cooling energy were used for AHUs. While the
pumps that feed AHUs were 303 m 3 /h and 1164 m 3 /h for heating and cooling system
respectively. On the other hand, the pumps that feed fan coils were 30 m 3 /h and 117
m 3 /h for heating and cooling system respectively.
