aking an office building in Guangzhou as an example, evaluates the full-load energy efficiency ratio. Analyses the thermal-physical characteristics, calculates the cooling losses in the cooling storage and for maintaining the room positive pressure during the night, and finally obtains the integrated energy efficiency ratio. The results indicate that the concrete slab radiant cooling system does not have a notable advantage to be employed in the subtropical zone.
