Determination of key parameters and control strategies for fabric energy storage (FES) systems for the various climates of Australia. This research will establish the theoretical basis for the use of advanced fabric energy storage (FES) systems in commercial buildings in Australia. A thermal model of a FES will be developed and then incorporated into a full building model, so that the interaction of the FES with other building elements may be studied. The model will be validated against data fro ....Determination of key parameters and control strategies for fabric energy storage (FES) systems for the various climates of Australia. This research will establish the theoretical basis for the use of advanced fabric energy storage (FES) systems in commercial buildings in Australia. A thermal model of a FES will be developed and then incorporated into a full building model, so that the interaction of the FES with other building elements may be studied. The model will be validated against data from measurements taken in a commercial building. A parametric study will be carried out to determine the optimum control strategy options and design parameters for FES systems in various climates in Australia.Read moreRead less
