ENERGY ACCOUNT A balance sheet of energy INPUTS OUTPUTS THROUGHPUTS flowing through a site boundary
The INPUT side
The OUTPUT side details the ultimate energy rejection to the external environment via heat transmission through the building fabric heat lost to ventilating air flue gas losses
The THROUGHPUTS What happens inside the building may require microaudits or energy balances over individual items of plant and equipment: furnaces, boilers, refrigerators, compressors, etc. to ascertain efficiencies and to quantify sundry gains

Equation
Fuel Energy Input = Energy losses during combustion + Energy losses during conversion + Energy losses during distribution + Energy losses during utilisation + Energy losses from utilisation
For a heated building, INPUT side Heating fuel energy input + Sundry gains from electricity + Sundry gains from people + Sundry gains from directly-fired process plant and equipment - Sundry losses to cold plant
For a heated building, OUTPUT side = Energy losses in flue gases + Energy losses during conversion + Energy losses from external distribution pipelines + Energy losses via fabric transmission + Energy losses in ventilating air + Energy losses in process materials directly rejected to the external environment
Heat Loss = Fabric Transmission Losses +Ventilation Losses
Heat Loss (W) = U A DT + m c p DT U = Overall U-value (W/m 2 K) A = Area for heat loss (m 2 ) m = Ventilating Air (kg/s) c p = specific heat of air (J/kg K) DT= Temperature difference between inside and outside ( o C)
Mean Annual Heat Loss (W) = U A DT + m c p DT m = Ventilating Air (kg/s) = number of air changes per second (1/s) x building volume, V (m 3 ) x density of air, r (kg/m 3 )
Mean Annual Heat Loss (W) = U A DT + m c p DT m = Ventilating Air (kg/s) = number of air changes per hour, n (1/hr) x hours/second (1/3600) x building volume,V (m 3 ) x density of air, r (1.2 kg/m 3 )
Heat Loss (W) = U A DT + m c p DT c p = specific heat of air (= 1000 J/kg K))
Heat Loss (W) = U A DT + m c p DT = U A DT + (r V n/3600) c p DT = U A DT + (1.2 V n/3600) x 1000 DT = U A DT + (V n/3) DT = (U A + nV/3) DT
Fuel Burnt by Boiler (W) = ((U A + nV/3) DT) / h where h is the boiler efficiency (%) expressed as a fraction
Annual Heat Loss (kWh/annum) = (U A + nV/3) DT x heating hours per annum/1000 where DT = mean annual temperature difference between inside and outside ( o C)
Monthly Heat Loss (kWh/month) = (U A + nV/3) DT x heating hours per month/1000 where DT = mean monthly temperature difference between inside and outside ( o C)
