Southern Alberta Institute of Technology
$25,000.00
Southland Leisure Center Solar Thermal Optimization
FY 2014-15
Summary
DBBS Consulting Inc. will work with the SAIT Green Building Technologies Access Centre (GBTAC) tovalidate a novel hot water tank while optimizing the solar thermal energy collection from a large thermal arrayalready installed on a community pool. This is a new relationship for SAIT. Three years of historical energycollection data will serve as a baseline against which to measure performance improvement resulting fromsystem adjustments and low-cost incremental changes to components. SAIT researchers and student researchassistants will benefits from the opportunity to participate in the validation of a new patented heating,ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) invention while evaluating and improving a large thermal array. Thecompany will gain valuable data and demonstration exposure that will benefit their business development.
