The AUDITAC Customer Advising Tool (CAT) to assist the inspection and audit of air conditioning systems in buildings. Presented at: 9th REHVA World Congress, Helsinki, |
Abstract
This paper describes the production of the Customer Advising Tool (CAT), a piece of software to help assess the potential for reducing the cooling demand of Office buildings, as required by Article 9 of the EPBD. It is a practical tool aimed at use by building owners, inspectors and auditors as part of the Inspection and Audit process. The tool was developed by the authors as part of the IEE AUDITAC project. The tool is based on a mixture of monitored and modelled data, and this paper presents the tool’s development, concluding with how the inputs and outputs are simplified down to those required to provide a focus to the on-site inspection and audit. It is anticipated that many Member States will refer to the tool as part of their support for implementing Article 9. The tool can be downloaded from, or used at, the following website: http://www.cardiff.ac.uk/archi/research/auditac/advice_tool.html
