Monthly model of hot water consumption

The article presents a statistical analysis of the monthly consumption of hot water in apartment buildings. On this basis, a monthly model of hot water consumption in multi-family buildings was proposed. This model consists of two sub models: model of average daily consumption of domestic hot water and a model describing changes in consumption of hot water in individual months of the year. To construct the model of average daily consumption of hot water, data on the consumption of hot water was used out of 16 multi-family buildings from the period of two years. The data was supplemented with information on the housing structure in the building. The study of changes in hot water consumption in the following months was based on data obtained from 30 buildings. Statistical analysis showed a strong correlation between the monthly consumption of hot water, the outside temperature and holiday period.
