LoginThe installation of thermostatic valves and cost allocators represents the main modernizationmeasure of the heating installation. In this study we determined theoretically andexperimentally their effects upon the energy savings.
Bibliographic database Airbase
AIRBASE is the Bibliographic Database of the AIVC. It contains publications and abstracts of articles related to energy efficient ventilation. Where possible, sufficient detail is supplied in the bibliographic details for users to trace and order the material via their own libraries. Topics include: ventilation strategies, design and retrofit methods, calculation techniques, standards and regulations, measurement methods, indoor air quality and energy implications etc. Entries are based on articles and reports published in journals, internal publications and research reports, produced both by university departments and by building research institutions throughout the world. AIRBASE has grown and evolved over many years (1979 to present day, over 22000 references and 16000 documents available online). For most of the references, the full document is also available online.
Access to the publications is free of charge.
Sitsang belongs to cold Region in china and heating energy consumption in winter is very large.
Novi Sad is capital administrative center of the Province Vojvodina, one of two towns with active oil refinery crossroad of transit traffic artery and until recently great industrial town!
In mid-2002 the Friedberg architects’ bureau Bremmer, Lorenz, Frielinghaus, which had been successful in the architecture competition, was commissioned to plan the new construction of the main branch of the Hagen Sparkasse (savings bank).
The use of bioclimatic solutions in architecture has been for a long time in Europe aconsolidated procedure, especially developed in northern countries.
A growing interest has been addressed to multi-energy systems in buildings that involve theintegration of different energy sources to cover the thermal and electrical loads of thebuilding.
The simulation of a building as a whole offers an image of its behaviour, reflecting thecomplex relation established between the outdoor environment factors, the buildingcharacteristics, the use by its occupants, and the parameters which intervene
The paper discusses the newly revised ASHRAE GreenGuide, particularly as it relates to thetopic of indoor environmental quality.
A global methodology is developed to optimize concepts for extremely low energy dwellings, taking into account energy savings, environmental impact and financial costs over the life cycle of the buildings.
This paper deals with the use of passive solutions to reach thermal comfort conditions in aneducational building under specific tropical climatic conditions.
The discussions around the implementation of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) [1] – not only in national legislation but also in real practice – have revealed open questions and caused different interpretations.
This study investigated the impacts of lifestyle in terms of family patterns, life schedules and climate factors upon household energy consumption, as well as to unfold the main causes of household energy consumption under various climatic lifesty
In this paper insight is given in the potentials for energy efficiency and renewable energy sources, specifically when applied to the built environment in the Netherlands.
The energy utilization of a country can be evaluated using exergy analysis, which is a way to asustainable development, to gain insights into its efficiency.
The climate in southern Brazil is characterised by mild winters and hot-humid summerswhich requires the design to be adaptable to the often conflicting summer and winterrequirements.
The paper presents a comparative study among six different solutions regarding the energysupply of a high-tech building.
HVAC load weighs a large portion of overall building energy consumption. A low storeybuilding of 20,000m2 floor area adopted a task ambient conditioning system (TAC) to reduceHVAC load while maintaining work environment.
The energy consumption and indoor temperature of 9 housing units sited in the northern region of Honshu Island, Japan were investigated for a full two years from Dec. 2002 to Nov. 2004.
The construction of a building with an optimized thermal and energy performance and anaccordingly low energy demand does not necessarily require higher investment costs.
The European research project “EULEB – European high quality Low Energy Buildings” intends to provide information about good examples of energy efficient buildings in use, in order to reduce prejudices and lack of knowledge of many key actors of t
