energy efficiency model compared to ASHRAE baseline model. In summary, the annual energy cost of the energy efficiency model is reduced by 7.75%. INTRODUCTION In a public building, there exist many spaces with quite different functions and structures which will certainly lead to more complicated ...
It is a known fact that fault in the buildings can cause as much as 30% increase in energy consumption. Thus, identifying critical failure modes affecting building energy performance is important. It can lead to actions to eliminate them, but it could as well play a role in designing a sui...
The minimization of life cycle costs for building materials and operational energy consumption of a reference commercial office building model is achieved through the optimization of envelope design parameters by the use of integrated energy simulation and multi-dimensional numerical optimization techniques. ...
This paper gives a short overview of the building simulation program IDA Indoor Climate and Energy (IDA ICE). IDA ICE primarily has been developed to study energy and indoor climate performance. With the additional of the one-dimensional heat, moisture, and air (HAM) simultaneous model, HAMWall...
