本文采用寿命周期成本(LCC)的概念，提出了一种适用于泰国的空调系统能效评价方案。所开发的方案将性能划分为三个级别：良好、非常好和优秀，其中优秀对应于提供最小系统生命周期成本的性能。该方案的最低性能水平与泰国建筑能源法(BEC)中公布的空调系统的最低性能要求相对应。在这项研究中，空调设备的资本成本是从国内主要的制造商和经销商那里获得的。运行成本是通过使用成熟的软件DesignBuilder模拟系统的年电能消耗得出的。分析结果表明，在大多数情况下，市场上性能最好的冷风机提供了最低的生命周期成本。
This paper adopts a concept of life cycle cost (LCC) to develop a scheme suitable to rate the energy performance of air-conditioning systems for Thailand. The developed scheme arranges the performance into three levels: good, very good, and excellent by which the excellent corresponds to that that provides the minimum system life cycle cost. The lowest performance level of the scheme is assigned corresponding to the minimum performance requirements of air-conditioning systems announced in Thailand's building energy code (BEC). In this study, the capital cost of air-conditioning equipment was obtained from the main manufacturers and distributors in the country. The operating cost was derived from the annual electrical energy consumption of the system simulated using a well-established software named “DesignBuilder”. The analysis results show that in most cases the best performance of chillers available in the market offers the minimum life cycle cost.
