1. Building-Integrated Thermal Energy Systems (BITES)
Professor Ian Beausoleil-Morrison Mr Chris Weissflog

2. BITES Focus on low-rise MURBs.
Design and optimization of integrated energy system :
Passive solar architecture.
High-performance envelope.
Multi-function heat pumps.
Heat recovery.
Geothermal storage.
Control strategies.
Goal : NZER performance at 10-year economic payback.

Analyze performance of prototype and identify opportunities for improving design.
Develop design of HRV.
Develop design alternatives for heat pump.
Year 2 :
Fabricate and test HRV prototype.
Optimize HRV design.
Develop detailed design for heat pump.
Team structure :
HRV
Heat pumps
