A FEASIBILITY STUDY ON SPACE COOLING WITH OUTDOOR AIR USING A DYNAMIC ENERGY SIMULATION PROGRAM PART 2: SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS ON FEASIBILITY OF SPACE COOLING WITH OUTDOOR AIR USING DESIGN OF EXPERIMENT

As a series of our research on energy conservation and thermal comfort of detached houses havingcentralized HVAC systems, sensitivity analysis on feasibility of space cooling with outdoor air wasconducted using Design of Experiment(DOE). Effects of varied parameters on building thermal loadwere examined for five cities such as Tokyo and Osaka that have different weather conditions within themilder climate area of Japan.
