Resumo O presente trabalho teve por objetivo identificar a razão entre área de janela e piso, associada à iluminação natural eficaz eficiência energética, no trópico úmido. As recomendações pré-dimensionamento mais usadas arquitetos nas etapas preliminares projeto, visando uma eficaz, abordam o tamanho da profundidade do ambiente. Códigos obras brasileiros determinam relações piso para garantir...

A facility based on a photovoltaic and thermal hybrid solar field with seasonal storage tank coupled to water-to-water heat pump is presented in this paper as an adequate energy supply system for building of social homes Zaragoza (Spain), currently under construction. Two types complementary software have been used the complete design, sizing, simulation system. DesignBuilder was determine hour...

Global temperatures have continued to rise for decades, partly due human-caused greenhouse gas emissions and subsequent urban heat island (UHI) effects. This current research examines the benefits of greenery by studying impact green roofs walls a building on thermal behavior transfer in warm humid climate. simulation study discusses importance greening systems improving comfort minimizing caus...

The evolution of the construction sector over years has been marked by replacement high thermal inertia mass constructions increasingly lighter solutions that are subject to greater fluctuations and, consequently, discomfort. To minimize these effects, energy demanding space conditioning technologies implemented, contributing significantly sector’s share global consumption. Enhanced constructiv...

Building information modelling (BIM) is the first step towards implementing 4.0, where virtual reality and digital twins are key elements. The use of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS/drones) to capture data from buildings nowadays a very popular method, so methodology was developed digitally integrate photogrammetric surveys building into BIM, exclusively with drones. Currently, responsible for 4...

This paper discusses the effect of various climatic conditions that pertain to passive design measurements and their relationships with building configurations improve indoor thermal comfort based on different climate zones in Egypt support Egypt’s sustainability agenda 2030. We find most appropriate settings can increase comfort, such as orientation shape. These be modeled using DesignBuilder ...

Students require a comfortable thermal environment for better academic learning and health in general. In Nepal, the majority of school buildings are constructed using local materials, but little consideration is provided to required comfort. Therefore, this study demonstrates advantages passive design measures through simulation that can be used either early stages or as retrofit determine how...

According to the energy crisis in the world, optimization of energy consumption is indispensable. Technological advances in constructions and application of renewable energy resources demand saving energy. Atrium, as one of the construction elements, catches sufficient daylight and acts as a passive solar element and results in a decline of energy consumption. This research seeks to evalu...

The need for production of all kinds crops in high quantities and over the entire year makes agricultural sector one major energy consumers. optimization this consumption is essential to guarantee its sustainability. implementation greenhouses a strategy that allows assurance needs possesses large potential process. This article studies different greenhouse structures by computational simulatio...
