Part III: Background
Along with the fast growth of economics, chilled water system is widely
used. In the past, the consumer was simple paid by area shared, whether
they used it or not, they must pay the same air conditioning fee, so it would
cause a lot of disputes between owner and user.
To a certain extent this method wasted enormous energy. So, how to
charge the energy consumption billing for chilled water system became a
big problem for the building owner.
AKE developed the first generation of BTU measurement system in 1998
which provide an scientific and reasonable charging basis and solved this
problem excellently. It leads people to establish correct consumed habit to
save energy consciously and have yielded remarkable social and
economic benefits.

◆Energy-based metering
Principle: Calculates the flow rate and temperature of supply and return
water, based on heat transmission formula to calculate the
energy consumption;
◆Time-based metering
Principle: Calculates the efficient running time of high/middle/low speed,
changes the total running time into an equivalent time,
treats total equivalent time as user’s running time,
finally as per rated unit price ($/hrs) to calculate the total fee.
