11 SYSTEMS EXAMINED BUT NOT USED Transpired solar system: preheat doesn't usually provide economic benefit if heat recovery is present! Direct solar gain: night losses & summer gains made it less economic than PV! 11

12 SYSTEMS EXAMINED BUT NOT USED Natural Ventilation Not used. The summer night time temperatures are good for nocturnal pre-cooling, but the local particulate count is high! 12

22 NREL RSF I - MODELING PROCEDURES equest has been used to account for most of the energy uses in the building. Thermal effects of construction details analyzed using 2D heat transfer software to appropriately de-rate the envelope. Daylighting schedules were developed by in radiance simulations by AEC. Thermal effects of natural ventilation strategies in the building were analyzed with IES VE. An hourly air heating capacity calculation was developed for the transpired collectors. A finite difference model of the remote mass labyrinth beneath the building was developed to determine the ventilation preheating benefit of the labyrinth. A combined heat recovery calculation was created to integrate the transpired collector, data center, labyrinth, and exhaust air heat recovery components of the building 22
