Abstract
Highlights
• Dynamic experiments are performed to study energy performance of a new HVAC system.
• Designed control strategies show good utilization of natural ventilation cooling.
• TABS work well with the diffuse ceiling in the dynamic measurements.
• No local thermal comfort problem is found even in the extreme winter case.
• Designed control strategies can be used in the future application of this system.
