This Future weather dataset is used for assessing the risk of overheating and thermal discomfort or heat stress in the free running buildings. The weather files are in the format of .epw which can be used in the building simulation packages such as EnergyPlus, DesignBuilder, IES, etc.

The use of vegetation for the energy efficiency buildings is an increasingly widespread practice; therefore, possibility representing these systems correctly with simulation software essential. VGS performances have been widely studied, but currently, lack a unique method to assess different types and absence studies evaluating all available, proposing models each them, leads incomplete represe...

In the future, number of electric vehicles will increase significantly, promoting integration renewable energy into buildings and vehicles, which helps to achieve greening in transportation architectural fields. The system includes energy, buildings, storage systems. this paper, mathematical model each is established, electricity consumption building power generation PV panels are predicted by ...

This study aims to evaluate the 50 duplex dwellings of El Miniawy brothers in M'Sila, using methods analysis environmental strategies order verify their application by architects construction these dwellings. A dwelling was selected undertake an a mixed methodological approach, combining qualitative and quantitative method, some whose were evaluated EnergyPlus software validated situ measuremen...

The paper analyses the benefits of energy analysis application in early-stage design. The research highlights the barriers that prevent this early integration and finally proposes the development of a simplified software tool tailored around the optimization of energy efficiency during early-stage design. Generally, the research aims to identify (a) the accuracy in results obtainable through pr...

We consider two problems in the design and operation of energy-efficient buildings. The first is the prediction of energy consumption of a building from that of similar buildings in its geographical neighborhood. The second problem concerns the localization of faults in building sub-systems with a focus on faults that lead to anomalous energy consumption. For both problems, we propose algorithm...
