One of the most effective methods to reduce energy consumption in buildings is to install the advanced HVAC equipments and to control them properly.

For the upcoming release of TRNSYS 17, one main focus is the improvement of the simulation of highly glazed large spaces such as multi-story atriums with respect to accuracy, user effort and error-

The energy performance of radiant slab cooling relative to conventional air systems to be clarified for climates from cold and dry to very hot and humid.

In this study, the data related to the thermal performance of a single family house, such as room temperatures, incident solar radiations on external surfaces, form factors between external surface

The main objective of this study is to develop and validate a systematic methodology to model a system of buried pipes, assisted by a solar chimney to promote the natural ventilation, in the whole

This document presents a study for examining the viability of hybrid ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems that use solar thermal collectors as the supplemental component in heating dominated buil

The purpose of this study is to propose an optimal design method for the energy system in apartment house using a genetic algorithm and to examine the possibility for the energy conservation of a d
