Typical Load Shapes for Swedish Schools ans Hotels
(1998) In Energy and Buildings 28. p.145-157- Abstract
- In this study, typical load shapes for two categories of Swedish commercial and public buildings – schools and hotels – are presented and discussed. The measurements from 13 schools and 9 hotels in the south part of Sweden were analysed. Load shapes are developed for different mean daily outdoor temperatures and different day-types - standard weekdays and standard weekends. The load shapes are presented as non-dimensional normalised 1-hour load. The typical load shapes give a reasonable approximation of the measured load shapes, although the relative errors exceed 20% of the mean values during some hours. Daytime (9 a.m.-5 p.m.) results are generally good with errors about 10%. Absolute errors remain relatively constant during the year but... (More)
