Dear all, I have created a very simple ideal source of energy for building energy simulations, and I was now wondering: how would you define the energy required by a building when an ideal source of energy is responsible for heating/cooling of outlet water to reach the inlet water temperature? Basically, this ideal source of energy would just use the following expression: Q=m_dotcp(T_in - T_out) for heating Q=m_dotcp(T_out - T_in) for cooling
Could I define this as energy demand? Thank you in advance for your attention! Alessandro
