Solutions for Energy Conservation and Pollution Reduction: Earth-Air Heat Exchangers
Cătălin Teodosiu, Lidia Niculiţă, and Raluca Teodosiu
Abstract—The aim of this work is to evaluate the capacity of
earth-air heat exchanger (EAHX) systems to contribute to
energy and pollution savings for heating and cooling of
buildings. This is fulfilled by means of numerical simulations
(dynamic regime) based on coupled model: “weather file/soil
model/EAHX/ventilation system/building. Detailed results
concerning EAHX efficiency, energy conservation and pollution
reduction (in comparison with classical solutions for winter
heating and summer cooling), are shown for three different
Romanian regions for a single-family separate house.
Index Terms—Earth-air heat exchanger, energy saving, greenhouse gas emission reduction, modeling, simulation, ventilation.
