ABSTRACT
Jakarta as a metropolitan city of Indonesia has its peak
load of energy consumption in the evenings. During the time from 6 PM to 10 PM the price of electricity is double compared to other time. Similar as other sectors, air conditioning system is the main primary energy consumption.It consumes about 60% of the total energy demand of the building. In response to the World oil crisis and to the limitation of energy availability, a paradigm on development of HVAC in cluster of high rise buildings is proposed to minimize investment, operation, and life cycle costs.
In this paper, four different optional systems of air conditioning are simulated. Those systems are centralized air conditioning system for individual buildings, centralized air conditioning system without TES (thermal energy storage) for cluster of buildings, centralized air conditioning system with TES for a cluster of buildings, and hybrid centralized air conditioning system with TES for a cluster of buildings. The investment, operation, and life cycle cost for each option is compared in analyses efficiency of the systems.
As the result of the simulation, in point view of investment, operational, and life cycle cost as the main criteria for the choice of the proposed system design, option 2 is the best choice. In fact, considering the sustainability of national electric power availability which predominantly depends on fossil fuel as primary energy resources and the price of energy that is very dynamic and tends to increase every year which is not agree with this assumptions used in this calculation, it is expected that within 10 years system operation, option 3 could be better than option 2. Furthermore, when there is an application of cooling thermal storage, it is important to consider about the benefit of the condenser waste heat recovery. A huge amount of heat rejected from the condenser can be used as preheating
hot water supply to the building or in other purposes.If it is the case, option 3 is still interesting to be considered as the proposed option.
INTRODUCTION
HVAC system maintains a desired air condition in a space. Cooling equipment consumes about 60% of the total energy demand for building. Since energy supply availability is limited, a paradigm on development of heating ventilation and air conditioning system in cluster of high rise building is proposed to minimize investment, operation, and life cycle costs. Using ofTES for shifting HVAC loads from on peak cooling load to off peak cooling load hours has truly allowed the building management system to manage the time when the energy is used to avoid expensive peaking cost. Any saving in electricity cost provides by TES is based on the pricing policy of the electricity utility. Jakarta has a new tariff energy policy. The price of electricity from 6 PM to 10 PM is around 1400 Rp/kWh while other period of time the electricity cost is around 700 Rp/kWh. This paper aims to minimize the energy consumption of air conditioning system for a cluster building in order to reduce the operation cost of the system. Four different systems are considered in these simulations.The result of each simulation gives a facility of selecting an effective system to match with the design condition.
COOLING LOAD ESTIMATION AND ANALYSIS A cluster of high rise building consists of twelve towers
situating in Jakarta. The buildings lie on the land about56000 m . The building serves for several different purposes such as apartment, hotel, school, club house, hospital, restaurant, shop, mall, and sport area, etc.

low temperature of condenser represents high performance of the system compare to which operate at high temperature of condenser.
Part load ratio during the operation: It is desirable to
optimize chiller size within a chiller plant to prolong their operation near full load and to decrease overall electricity consumption.
Capacity of the chiller: Basically, the chiller which has
big capacity always gives high performance during compare to which has small capacity.
These four basic considerations are used to selection the
chillers for this design simulation to match with design gold criteria.
Centralized Air Conditioning System for Individual Building (Option1)
Centralized air conditioning systems as illustrated in Figure 3, are proposed to remove the cooling to the individual building in the cluster. The conventional chillers are selected to match with cooling load demand for each building after gotten the cooling load demand profile from the computation in HAP program. In this option, three equal capacity chillers are propose to remove cooling load of the building while two are operate and one is duty. Chillers are setting to operate at normal condition which is 30oC of condenser water temperature and 7oC of chilled water temperature.
Figure 3Schematic diagram for centralized air conditioning system for individual building
Centralized Air Conditioning System without TES for Cluster of buildings (Option 2)
Centralized air conditioning system features has some of the criteria associated have to be considered to reduce the installed equipment capacity and to offers some attractive initial cost and operating cost benefits. In this optional system, since the cluster has maximum peak cooling load up
to 35098 kW, five equal capacity chillers are propose to remove cooling load of thecluster buildings in each hours while one chiller is set for duty to reserve for any failure chiller. The system will design to operate twenty four hours per day.
Figure 4Schematic diagram of centralized air conditioning system without TES
Centralized Air Conditioning System with TES for Cluster of buildings (Option 3)
Thermal energy storage (TES) in which such as used in a conventional chillers system, with the additional large container that stores cooling in ice, chillers water, or some others material. TES is analogues to an electrical system of an automobile. The chiller is similar to automobile generator and TES is the automobile’s battery. At different times, the cooling load of the facility maybe serves by the chiller directly, by the cooling storage unit, or by both. In this optional system,as illustrated inFigure 5, the system is separated into two parts which are conventional chiller system and ice chiller system. In conventional chiller system, five equal capacities chillers are selected while four chillers supply direct cooling to the cluster of buildings at low price of energy supply time and one chiller is duty. In ice chiller system, one ice chillers is proposed to shift cooling load to the TES and other ice chillers used for duty. In this option, TES is installed for full load charge and discharge. Conventional chillers and ice chillers are operated only at low price energy supply time. In the evening from 6 PM to 10 PM, the price of electricity is double from other period, all the chillers are turn off and TES is starting to discharge to supply the cooling to the building. For pump and cooling tower will be used same characteristic equipment as in option 2.

Figure 5 Schematic diagram of centralized air conditioning

Hybrid Centralized Air Conditioning System with TES for Cluster of buildings (Option 4)
Four equal capacities ice chillers are proposed to remove cooling load from the building and to charge TES simultaneously while other one chiller is duty.When the cooling load demand is lower than the installed chillers capacities, the demand is satisfied by the chiller alone; one part is shifting in TES. During on peak cooling load demand, the total cooling load of the conventional chillers plus some part of cooling in the storage are used to remove cooling from the building. The price of energy supply is high from 6 PM to 10 PM, all the chillers are turn off and TES is discharging shift cooling to the building. In this case, the size of TES is bigger than TES in option 3 but capacities of chillers is smaller.

RESULT AND DISCUSSION
Basic Data for Efficient Cost Evaluation The efficient of the systems is evaluated base on the
investment, operation, and life cycle cost. The investment cost refers to the optional system which is cost less. The operation cost of the system are contributed of chilled water power consumption, chilled water primary pump power consumption, condenser water pump power consumption, chilled water secondary pump power consumption, cooling tower fan power consumption, condenser heat rejected cost, and makeup water evaporated in the cooling tower cost which base on electrical tariff in Jakarta. The life cycle cost evaluate base on the efficient of the system during the whole economic life cycle.
Investment Cost Evaluation
The initial cost of the system is evaluated based on the
market price survey of the air conditioning equipment in Jakarta. In each option even though the system is proposed to supply cooling to the same cluster of buildings but the numbers and the capacities of the unit are different as shown inTable 2.

By comparing in the investment cost, centralized air
conditioning system for cluster of buildings can save up to 16% from option 4, 23% from option 1 and 27% from option 3 respectively.
Operation Cost Evaluation
Chiller:Chilled power consumption can be evaluated
with the formula: = ×C eff LW C Q (1)
For this design simulation, the energy consumption of the chillers calculates in two different conditions. For base conventional chiller, the calculation is done with chilled water leaving temperature 7oC and entering condenser water temperature 30oC. For ice chillers, the calculation is done with chilled water leaving temperature -6oC and entering condenser water temperature 30oC.

Cooling Tower:Cooling tower fan power consumption for a standard assumption:
0.03= ×CT HW Q (2) During the operation of cooling tower, small term of
water lost to evaporation is 1% to 4% of the water through flow. For this case study, makeup water flow rate for cooling tower is assumed to be 3% of the through flow and the water price is Rp3000/m3. The amount of make-up water flow rate can be illustrated as:
0.03= ×EV CDWV V (3) Pump:Pumps power consumption is done for condenser
water pump, chiller water primary pump, and chiller water secondary pump. Power consumption of the pump can be evaluated with the equation (4):

Operation Cost Analysis
Same as describe in capital cost analysis, the operation cost will done for four options of central air conditioning system which is mentioned as option 1, 2 3, and 4. The operation cost contains energy consumption cost of the chillers, pumps, cooling towers, and also include the cost of water evaporated in the cooling tower.
Chiller Energy Consumption: Figure 7illustrates the
different characteristic of daily chiller energy consumption of each optional system.
Figure 7 Daily chiller energy consumption in the different
months of the year
As shown in Figure 5-1, chillers in option 4 (hybrid
centralized air conditioning system for cluster of buildings), consume the most energy among four optional air conditioning systems. This is because of the reduction of the chiller performance at low temperature of chilled water. Option 1 consumes energy less than option 4 of about 15% but still leads option 3 and 2. This is because of the low performance of the small capacity unit which is increased in
energy consumption of the equipment. In Option 3, the combination of conventional chiller and ice chiller cause the system increase slightly in the energy consumption compare to option 2. Option 2 is the least in the energy consumption compare to other three options. This is because the entire chiller in this option has big capacity and operates at high evaporator leaving temperature which increases the performance during the operation. Figure 5-1 illustrated that during the operation of the system, chiller in option 2 can save in energy consumption about 10% from option 3, 20% from option 1, and 30% from option 4 respectively. It is reasonable to select the chiller with the maximum capacity possible to increase the performance of the equipment during the operation and also to reduce the energy consumption of the equipment.
Cooling Tower Energy Consumption: Similar to the
curve characteristic of the chiller energy consumption, when the energy consumption of the chiller increases, it will cause the capacity of the cooling tower increase. As illustrated in Figure 5-2, the cooling tower in option 2 consumes less in energy consumption since high performance of the chiller decrease in condenser heat rejected. Option 1 and 3 have similar curve of energy consumption. These two options take about 2.5% of energy consumption higher compare to option 2. This is because option 1 cause by the small capacity chiller and option 3 caused by low operating temperature of evaporator. Option 4 consumes about 10% higher in energy consumption of cooling tower compare to option 2.
Figure 8Cooling tower energy consumption curve
It is reasonable when the chiller performance decreases
it causes the heat rejected from the condenser increases and also leads to the increase of cooling tower energy consumption.
Chilled Water and Condenser Water Pump: The
characteristic of the pump energy consumption profile is different from those in chiller and cooling tower energy consumption, as presented in Figure 5.3. In option 1, the system has short cycle piping can give a benefit in the operation cost. In option 2, 3 and 4, the centralized chiller system for the whole cluster of buildings extrude the pipe

length compare to option 1 cause to increases the pressure drop of the piping system. This increasing will cause the energy consumption of the chilled water pump increase significantly. Anyways the increase in condenser heat rejected will increase condenser water flow rate and leads consequently the increasing in condenser water pump energy consumption simultaneously. Moreover, the additional TES tank will cause more pressure drop in the system in option 3 and 4.
Figure 9 Pump daily energy consumption
Figure 5-3 illustrated that during the operation of the pump, option 1 can save about 15% from option 2, 20% from option 3, and 25% from option 4 respectively.
Total Energy Consumption:The curve of the total
energy consumption of the system is similar to the curve of the chiller energy consumption. This is because chillers consume the most energy among air conditioning system equipment. The selection and the operation of the chiller will influent to the whole system. As illustrated in Figure 5-4 that the most saving in energy consumption is option 2 (centralized air conditioning system for a cluster of buildings). In option 2, during the operation, it can save in energy consumption about 7.5% from option 3, 12% form option 1, and 26.5% from option 4 respectively.
Figure 10 Averaged daily total energy consumption
Cooling Tower Makeup Water Evaporated: The water evaporated in the cooling tower also costly in the operation of air conditioning system. As sketching in Figure 5-5, daily payment cost for the water evaporated is reach to 10.5 million rupiah per day and this payment is equal to 10% of the total operation cost of the system. As shown in Figure 11, option 2 spends less for makeup water evaporated in the cooling tower.
Figure 11 Daily makeup water consumption cost
During the operation of the system, it can reduce the expanse up to about 5% from option 3, 8% from option 1, and 10% from option 4 respectively. The payment for the makeup water evaporated in the cooling tower would be reduced or eliminated from the operation cost of the system when applying the heat recovery system to the condenser heat rejected.
System Operation Cost:When applying electrical tariff
to the operating system, the curve is totally change from what it was in energy consumption profile as mentioned in Figure 5-6. In this case the advantages of the thermal energy storage system exist. However the optional of the TES system is needed to compare the efficiency of the system.

system. During the operation of the system, option 3 can save the operation cost about 7% from option 2 and about 20% of option 4 and option 1 respectively.
Life Cycle Cost Analysis
The overall estimated cost for a system alternative over the time period corresponding to the life of the system, including direct and indirect initial costs plus any periodic or continuing costs for operation and maintenance is called life cycle cost. In this case study, life cycle cost of the system equal to the summation of investment cost, interest of the investment cost, and the operation cost during the economic life of the system.
The annual payback of the system can be obtained with the equation (5).

The annual operation cost can be evaluated with the equation (6).
Energy cost = Load × hours operation ×efficiency× electrical tariff (6) In this paper, life cycle cost is evaluated with the
assumptions below: o Chiller, cooling tower, and pump have economic
life for ten years operation. o Electricity tariff is fixed o The efficiency of the equipment are fixed during
ten years operation o The interest rate of this calculation is assumed to be
at constant value equal to 10%. The analysis of the life cycle cost is used to predict the
income of the system and the efficient of the system that could be proposed to the cluster of buildings. Table 3 shows the capital cost and operation cost per year of such each option in this study.

Finally, by using the interest of the loan equal to 10%
and economic life of the equipment equal to ten year, option 2 is the most suitable air conditioning system which can save 20% from option 1, 18% from option 3, and 15% from option 4 respectively.
Condenser Heat Recovery Saving Cost
The saving cost in heat recovery system not only the heat that is taken from the condenser to pre-heat the water but also the cost saving in cooling tower operation cost and water evaporated cost. For the most accurate system, when the demand of the hot water supply is happened simultaneously with the demand of cooling in the building, the heat rejected by condenser will be absorbed by the water. In this case the cooling towers are not operated and there is finally no water evaporated in the cooling tower. The power input for active electric heat can be define by equation (7).

Suppose that all the heat has been recover and the efficiency of the heater is 95%. The annual saving cost of the heat recovery system is shown in Table 5.

CONCLUSION
An analysis of the energy consumption indicates an opportunity to design an efficient air conditioning system for a cluster of high rise buildings, including the utilization of thermal energy storage (TES) system to minimize the size of equipment chiller and also to shift the cooling from low price to high price energy time. As in this case study, four

optional air conditioning systems are proposed to overcome cooling load requirement of this cluster of buildings in Jakarta with respect to the electrical tariff. Those four optional systems are centralized air conditioning system for individual buildings (option 1), centralized air conditioning system for cluster of buildings (option 2), centralized air conditioning system with TES for a cluster of buildings (option 3), and hybrid centralized air conditioning system with TES for a cluster of buildings (option 4).
As the result of the simulation, if the investment cost is used as criteria, option 2 is the best among the proposed options. This option requires investment cost lower of about 16% than option 4 or 23% lower than option 1 and also 27% lower than option 3. This lowest investment cost is maybe very advantageous for the developer of these properties. However this option gives direct impact on operational cost that will be paid by user, tenant or occupants of the buildings. Furthermore, the higher operational cost which is due to higher electric consumption implies to the national energy resources. Higher electric consumption could reduce sustainability of the electric energy availability if their primary energy resource is still dominated by nonrenewable energy.
In point view of operational cost as the main criteria for the choice of the proposed system option design, option 3 is the best system. With the lowest operational cost implies not only for the future sustainability of national electric energy availability but also gives direct impact on the expense of tenant and owners of the buildings. Although this option requires higher investment cost, but this could be calculated and compensated by the sale or rental prices. Moreover, with this option the operational cost that should be paid by tenant or owners is lower of about 7% than option 2, or around 20% lower than both options 1 and 4.
However, in the design consideration including economic aspect, life cycle cost is normally used as the criteria. According to the results of the simulation based on life cycle cost that assumed as 10 years, option 2 is the best choice. In fact, considering the sustainability of national electric power availability which predominantly depends on fossil fuel as primary energy resources and the price of energy that is very dynamic and tends to increase every year which is not agree with this assumptions used in this calculation, it is expected that within 10 years system operation, option 3 could be better than option 2. Furthermore, when there is an application of cooling thermal storage, it is important to consider about the benefit of the condenser waste heat recovery. A huge amount of heat rejected from the condenser can be used as preheating hot water supply to the building or in other purposes. If it is the case, with the modification of electric tariff assumption that, in fact, always increases every year with additional
consideration on condenser heat recovery for pre-heating hot water that could also reduce cooling tower fan power consumption, option 3 is still interesting to be considered as the proposed option. REFERENCES
