The nominal heating-cooling capacities were determined according to the peak loads, which are 6.84-2.01 kW, 5-2.96 kW, 3.9-4.6 kW, 3.08-5.02 kW, and 3.4-0.46 kW in the ULEB of Harbin, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Kunming, respectively. To ensure both thermal comforts and energy conservation, during the heating season, full fresh air supply is suggested in Beijing and the 1:0.5 MFRR is suggested in Harbin, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Kunming. During the cooling season, the 1:5 MFRR is suggested in Shanghai and Guangzhou, the 1:3, 1:1.5, and 1:0.5 MFRR are suggested in Harbin, Beijing and Kunming, respectively. The PEAHP energy efficiency grades 1~5 are 7.92~11.7, 7.58~11.5, 7.5~11.35, 6.12~9.27, and 4.64~7.03 during the heating season of Harbin, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Kunming, respectively, and are 2.33~3.54, 3.93~5.96, 4.61~6.98, 4.62~6.99, and 2.04~3.1 for the cooling season, respectively.
