Scope
Defines how thermal energy need will change in the future in Helsinki metropolitan area. Calculations are done by day degree method which is explained here; Heating consumption of buildings.
Definition
Data
Consumption of district heating in Helsinki metropolitan area in year 2007 [1].
. | Consumption of district heating |
DISTRICT HEATING COMPANY | GWh |
Fortum Power and Heat Oy, Espoo | 1 882,5 |
Helsingin Energia | 6 409,8 |
Vantaan Energia Oy | 1 556,6 |
Building stock of Helsinki metropolitan area [2].
Helsinki Metropolitan area Council's (YTV) report of floor area and population changes in Helsinki metropolitan area to 2025 [3]
Global warming and changes in outdoor temperature.
Causality
Unit
GWh
Formula
Qh = U * A * (Tin-Tout) * t where Qh = Heat flow from building to surroundings, U = Buildings overall heat transfer coefficient, A = Buildings total surface area (floor, walls and roof), Tin = Indoor temperature, Tout = Outdoor temperature and t = Time period of the transfer.
Thermal energy what is needed for warm tap water can be calculated as
Qw = cp,w * pw * qm,w * (Tw,warm - Tw,cold) * t where Qw = Thermal energy needed for warm tap water, pw = Water density, cp,w = Specific heat capacity for water, Tw,warm = Temperature of warm tap water and Tw,cold = Temperature of cold tap water.
Other thermal energy leaks are estimated to be negligible. A city’s need of thermal energy in a year can be then estimated to be sum of single buildings need of thermal energy. Thus a city’s total need of thermal energy can be calculated as
Qtotal = Qw + Qh where Qtotal = Year need of thermal energy in city, Qh = Heat flow from building to surroundings and Qw = Thermal energy needed for warm tap water.
