Development of a unique measuring unit for airflow volume within the vertical shaft of naturalventilation system with solar chimney with theresults of laboratory test and on-sitemeasurement is presented.
Shinada, Y.; Kimura, K.I.
A sample of existing double-skin faqade (DSF)buildings distributed across Europe were analysedby means of data clustering.
Matos de, M.; Duarte, R.
Building services create customised, user-oriented and controlled conditions for thevarious activities taking place on real estatesand related premises.This paper presents an outlool< of buildingservices trends in Finland.
Paiho, S.; Ahlqvist, T.; Lehtinen, E.
Recently, a law securing 0.7ACH ventilationrates was enacted in South Korea. As aconsequence, various ventilators have beeninstalled in apartments.
Heo, J.; Choi, C.; Kim, S.; Lee, Y.
International building legislation is setting stronger and stronger requirements for the energy performance of buildings. The most recent example is the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive in the European Union.
Erhorn, H.; Erhorn-Kluttig, H.; Carrie, R.
A numerical simulation is used to evaluate theefficiency of a multi-layer rack composed ofphase change material (PCM) sheets each. Thebuilding, object of this study, is actually underconstruction in Lyon and will be monitored.
Kuznik, F.; Virgone, J.
The purpose of this paper is to proposestrategies of reducing energy consumption forcooling in residences under hot and humidclimate such as Indonesia.
Uno, T.; Hokoi, S.; Ekasiwi, S.N.N.
There is an obvious and indisputable need for anincrease in the efficiency of energy utilization inbuildings.
Schmidt, D.; Shukuya, M.
The case study of a nursery school of Bologna isa pilot example of how hybrid ventilationsystems can be embedded in architecturallysignificant buildings.
L. Guardigli, M.T. Cascella
The purpose of this study is to clarify thecharacteristics of airflow around building roofand to provide the guidelines for design ofnatural ventilation by chimney.
