energy performance analysis of adnan menderes international airport

CHAPTER 4
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The energy consumption of the ADM building is modeled and simulated by
DesignBuilder and EnergyPlus software. Performance improvement measures are
proposed and the results are discussed. In this section presents simulation of ADM
building. Furthermore, the effect of different HVAC system and different orientation of
ADM building are examined on monthly energy requirements. Additionally, the output
results of the program are compared with the values obtained from the measurements
done by BMS and the total energy consumption of the building.
4.1. Simulation of Original Building Orientation
The results of simulations with EnergyPlus described above are reported in the
following figures. These figures show monthly and hourly simulation results.
Simulation of Monthly Results
Comfort data results are reported in Figures 4.1 and 4.2. Operative temperatures
of each floor are reported in Figure 4.1. The maximum operative temperatures have in
the first floor (Arrival) for all months (Figure 4.1). Also, in Figure 4.1, roof used as a
check-in area has the best comfort temperatures.
