Description

The project’s goal is improving the performance of the trigineration system that the company Inditex has in its headquaters in Arteixo (A Coruña), as well as the research on air-conditioning demand linked to one of the urban buildings located in the above mentioned complex where several changes and restoration are going to be performed.

EnergyLab’s Tasks

EnergyLab performed the following tasks:

  • Analysis of the present performance of the trigeneration system.
  • Research on the air-conditioning demands in the building to be restored.
  • Development of a simulation model with the Trnsys software.
  • Search for optimal trigeneration system’s performing point according to the possible thermal demands which come from the restoration of inside facilities from the developed performing patterns.
