ENERGY SAVINGS BY INSTALLING INSULATION CABINETS

ADVANTAGES OF INSULATION COVERINGS

There are several advantages to installing an insulation covering:

• Reduced operational costs
• Reduced energy consumption
• Lower CO2 emissions

 

CALCULATION OF SAVINGS

The savings by installing an insulation covering can be calculated using this formula:

 

K x T x O = SAVINGS

K = Your price per KWh

T = Temperature difference between the exchanger and the building

O = The surface of the plate heat exchanger

 

EXAMPLE CALCULATION OF ENERGY SAVING 

Price of the energy (K)	0.75 DKK/KWh  (The price you pay for the energy)
Energy saving (T)	4200 KWh/year/m2
Surface of the heat exchanger (O)	2.3 m2  ( 2x(HxB+HxL+BxL) )
Average surface temperature on the plate heat exchanger	70°C  (90 - 60, 80 - 50)
Room temperature	20°C
Average temperature difference	50°C

The savings in this example: 0.75 x 4,200 x 2.3 = 7,245 DKK/year​
