Comparison of different methods for estimating the building envelope thermal characteristics | 2013 | English
In this paper, we give an overview of an on-going research work aiming at assessing the benefits that could be drawn from applying advanced software engineering techniques – namely model-driven architecture, component-based approaches and model-ba
Combining a building simulation with energy systems analysis to assess the benefits of natural ventilation | 2013 | English
This article shows the combination of a thermal-airflow simulation program with an energy systems analysis model in order to assess the use of natural ventilation as a method for saving energy within residential buildings in large-scale scenarios.
Indoor environment of a classroom in a passive school building with displacement ventilation | 2013 | English
Indoor air quality and thermal comfort of the passive school buildings should be particularly paid more attentions due to those new passive school buildings adopted highly airtight building envelopes.
A study on the improvement of summer thermal environment at the atrium of Kimhae national museum | 2013 | English
This paper deals with typical residential buildings constructed according to the national energy-efficiency standard in China’s severe cold region.
Building energy and CFD simulation to verify thermal comfort in under floor air distribution (UFAD) design | 2013 | English
Corporate tenants require ever-greater design certainty with respect to all aspects of proposed developments.
This paper depicts a formulation of the global home electricity management problem, which consists in ad-justing the electric energy consumption to the cost and availability variations of the power supply.
Determining heat use in residential buildings using high resolution gas and domestic hot water monitoring | 2013 | English
Residential buildings consume about a third of the UKs total energy and the need to reduce this as part of achieving the 2050 CO2 emissions targets driving the interest the modelling and performance simulation of homes.
