Cooling Degree Days for Quick Energy Consumption Estimation in the GCC Countries

open access: yesSustainability, 2022
One of the most useful and simplified approaches in assessing building energy estimates is the degree days method. The heating and cooling requirements can be easily compared for different locations as well as system trends. In this paper, the cooling degree day values for the capitals of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) are presented.

On the variability of cooling degree-days in an urban environment: application to Athens, Greece

open access: yesEnergy and Buildings, 1994
Abstract Knowledge of cooling degree-days is necessary in order to estimate the cooling requirements of buildings in a place, which characterize the overall temperature conditions during the summer period. Exact calculation of the cooling degree-days requires a long time series of hourly temperature data from representative meteorological stations ...

Spatio-temporal analysis of heating and cooling degree-days over Iran [PDF]

open access: yesStochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment, 2021
Abstract Climate change affects the energy demand in different sectors of the society. To investigate this possible impact, in this research, temporal trends and change points in heating degree-days (HDD), cooling degree-days (CDD), and their simultaneous combination (HDD+CDD) were analysed for a 60-year period (1960-2019) in Iran.

Modeling the impacts of climate change on monthly commercial sector electricity consumption: A case of Suzhou, China

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2023
Multiple regression equations are the most common method for modeling the influences of climate variables on electricity demand. However, the multiple regression equations based on time series data often suffer from the problem of serial correlation or ...

Integrating Latent Load into the Cooling Degree Days Concept for Current and Future Weather Projections

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Rising temperatures, increase in population, and dense urban morphology have resulted in increased cooling energy demands. The conventional degree-days method to calculate cooling energy demand considers only the sensible heat load of air and neglects ...

Optimum Thickness of Thermal Insulation with Both Economic and Ecological Costs of Heating and Cooling

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
The energy efficiency of the construction sector should be determined by the cleanliness of the environment and, thus, the health of society. The scientific aim of this article was to develop a methodology for determining the optimum thickness of thermal

Analysis of Cooling and Heating Degree Days over Mexico in Present and Future Climate

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
One simple way to estimate the relationship between air temperature and the energy needed for heating and cooling is to use the concept of degree day. Cooling degree days (CDD) and heating degree days (HDD) are indicators of the energy required to reach ...

An efficient climate index for reflecting cooling energy consumption: Cooling degree days based on wet bulb temperature

open access: yesMeteorological Applications, 2021
Cooling energy consumption of buildings is not only used for decreasing temperature, but for dehumidification. Therefore, cooling degree day (CDD) based on only temperature is insufficient for estimating the cooling energy consumption in buildings.

What is the uncertainty in degree day projections due to different 2 calibration methodologies? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Degree-days are a temperature index used for understanding the impact of climate change. Different methods to deal with climate model biases, termed bias correction or more generally calibration, yield different projections of such indices, something not
