in this paper, dynamic transient method and conventional degree-hours method (static) have been compared to estimate heating and cooling loads of building’s wall. all main wall surfaces of various orientations, i.e.south, west, east, north, and horizontal are considered in the climate of tehran, iran. in this study, a conventional wall structure, which is comprisedconcrete as main wall material...

since the energy consumption has become one of the crisis of modern buildings, modeling the iranian past architecture patterns could be helpful. the shopping streets as one of the main sectors consuming energy locate near the open spaces it seems, therefore, they need more thermal comfort. however, using passive techniques, the iranian traditional bazaars architecture solved the problems regard...

Combined cooling, heating, and power (CCHP) systems produce electricity, cooling, and heat due to their high efficiency and low emission. These systems have been widely applied in various building types, such as offices, hotels, hospitals and malls. In this paper, an economic and technical analysis to determine the size and operation of the required gas engine for specific electricity, cooling, ...

Design of a thermally comfortable indoor environment requires detailed information about distribution of air velocity, air temperature, relative humidity, and mean radiant temperature and about heating/cooling load in a space. This research has developed a coupled airflow-and-energy simulation program to calculate simultaneously the distributions of indoor airflow and thermal comfort and heatin...

In this paper solar assisted heating and absorption cooling system and domestic hot water needs for a hotel having fifty rooms in Antalya have been investigated. First of all, solar radiation and meteorological data for Antalya and heating and cooling loads of the hotel building are given. For the heating cycle, active systems using liquid as the working fluid; and for the cooling cycle, solar-...

In this study, a new proposed multi-generation system as a promising integrated energy conversion system is studied, and its performance is investigated thermodynamically. The system equipped with parabolic trough collectors and biomass combustor to generate electricity, heating and cooling loads, hydrogen and potable water. A double effect absorption chiller to provide cooling demand, a proton...

Abstract: There exists huge differences in climatic conditions and occupant energy-consuming behavior between Berlin and the “hot summer and cold winter zone of China” (HSCW), which implies that the building energy consumption compositions of two regions are completely different. In this paper, dynamic energy consumption simulation for passive houses with Design Builder software was performed. ...
