Measurements of indoor pollutants have been performed in 50 residences in Athens. The concentration of CO2, CO, TVOC’s and PM2.5, PM10 has been measured.…
Presently the assessment of the thermal behaviour and the energy efficiency of naturally ventilated double skin facades (DSF) is only possible by using…
In hot and arid climates, evaporative cooling appears to have significant potential to provide thermal comfort and reduce the energy loads of summer season…
In Asian countries under sultry climatic conditions includingJapan, natural ventilation and cross-ventilation at nighttime give very good effects on the…
Many modern office buildings have highly glazed facades.Their energy efficiency and indoor climate is, however, being questioned. Therefore more and more of…
This paper introduces research being carried out to support effective energy efficient design in Egypt. It is based on deriving results of multiple…
A numerical analysis of the natural ventilation in greenhouseswas performed at no-wind and low-wind speeds with the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD…
Considering that natural ventilation is a climatic factor,a renewable alternative, as well as an important source of comfort, it seems to be relevant to…
The purpose of this work is to study numerically the indoorenvironmental conditions in an office. The indoor air quality status has already been studied…
Goal of the study was to investigate the relation betweenthe level of ventilation and the performance of school children in classroomsIn one school in two…
This paper shows the analysis of ventilation impact in the energy behaviour in rural areas. Considering that a large percentage of housing production is…
Energy saving and emissions reduction are both affectedby the energy efficiency of the built environment and the matching between the quality of the energy…
The architectural product is influenced by a series of more general economical aspects such as people’s living standard, which includes not only a relative…
