Abstract:
1. A method for predicting a cooling load of a cooling system for a building, comprising the steps of: calculating, using the cooling system, a sensible heat load and a latent heat load, respectively, of solar radiation heat, conduction heat of the building, heat caused by infiltrated outdoor air and ventilated outdoor air of the building, and internally generated heat for every conditioned space of the building; and adding the calculated sensible heat load and latent heat load to obtain the cooling load of the cooling system for the building so that the cooling system is run at the obtained cooling load, wherein the sensible heat load of the cooling load is calculated by wherein, {dot over (Q)} P {dot over (m)} C T T h h εs is a sensible heat recovery ratio of infiltrated and ventilated air, and wherein the latent heat load of the cooling load is calculated by wherein, {dot over (Q)} {dot over (m)} C h h ε
