Calculate G coefficient with fioul or gas consumption


POWER OF THE MACHINE:
This formula is empiric: we use the G factor
We don't care about a shape factor. We suppose that the surface of the bulding is proportional to the volume
B(W)= G (W/m3.°C) x V(m3) x deltaT (T ambiant - T base)

We are looking for the G factor, so we need to find the power of the oil or the gas boiler with the annual consomption
G (W/m3.°C) = B(W) / ( V(m3) x deltaT (T ambiant - T base) )

PCI means: lower heating value (LHV)
It means that we don't use the power in the steam
The unit is J/Kg or kWh/kg
The number of kilogram of fioul (oil or gas) = Power(kW) x DJU(°C) / deltaT(°C) x kW/kg
"periodical" and "efficency" are two opposite factors: the use of the building and the efficency of the boiler
The consumption is:
Conso. (kg) = ( 24(h) x B(kW) x DJU(°J) x periodical (%) ) / ( deltaT x efficency (%) x PCI (kWh/kg) )

We extract the power of the boiler from the previous formula:
B(kW) = ( conso.(kg) x deltaT(°C) x efficency(%) x PCI(kWh/kg) ) / ( 24(h) x DJU(°J) x periodical (%) )
B = (1000 x 25 x 0.7 x 1000) / (24 x 2200 x 1 )

We put the previous formula in the first one:
G (W/m3.°C) = ( conso(kg) x efficency(%) x 1000 x PCI(kWh/kg) ) / ( 24(h) x DJU x periodical (%) x V(m3) )

DeltaT has disappeared. The calculation is given for a internal temperature of 18°C

When you decrease the efficency coefficient (poorer machine), you can see the G coefficient decreasing (good insulation): that's correct !
It's because you get the same looses with a worse machine, so it means the insulation is very good.

In the second part of the calculation, we need the "deltaT" to calculate the Power needed.
