Abstract

The heating and cooling of buildings with large-scale ceiling systems nowadays is widely used in traditional as well as in new, low-energy buildings. This type of system is being employed in a building of the Civil Engineering Faculty (FCE), Slovak Technical University, in Bratislava. The building’s refurbishment in 2010 included the complete replacement of the building’s envelope. The replacement is a lightweight facade with a high percentage of transparent construction. Due to the differences between the type of envelope and the heating system, the operation of the heating system frequently causes thermal discomfort, especially during warm spring or autumn days. The aim of the measurements was to evaluate the control of the operation of the heating output, the appropriateness of the location of sensors measuring the outdoor temperature and possible improvement of the current control system to improve the heating system’s quality.
