Abstract

See full text

A system for determining the relative space heating energy contribution of different tenant spaces in a multiple tenant building that is heated via a central steam piping distribution system. A steam piping distribution system is connected to a central heat source such as a steam boiler plant or a local utility district steam service. The steam distribution system includes terminal units located throughout the building which deliver heat to different spaces. Data collected at regular intervals from sensors located throughout the building are analyzed by a computer in order to calculate the fraction of the overall building's steam use that is delivered to particular tenant spaces over a given interval in time.
