Energy Conservation in Building
The building sector accumulates approximately a third of the final energy consumption. Consequently, the improvement of the energy efficiency in buildings has become an essential instrument in the energy policies to ensure the energy supply in the mid to long term moreover is the most cost-effective strategy available for reducing carbon dioxide emissions This paper is studying the main objecti...
متن کاملEnergy Conservation using Daylight Energy Transfer through Windows : Case of Office Buildings
The exterior envelope of buildings play a significant role on the amount of energy consumption in office buildings that are located in warm climates. The present study focuses on the reduction of energy consumption by integrating daylight and artificial lights, and by changing the characteristics of exterior envelope of buildings including window coverage and dimension of buildings. Moreover, t...
متن کاملEnergy efficiency in a building complex through seasonal storage of thermal energy in a confined aquifer
Confined aquifers are formations surrounded by impermeable layers called cap rocks and bed rocks. These aquifers are suitable for the seasonal storage of thermal energy. A confined aquifer was designed to meet the cooling and heating energy needs of a residential building complex located in Tehran, Iran. The annual cooling and heating energy needs of the buildings were estimated to be 8.7...
متن کاملEstimating radiation dose from building materials
Background: Natural radioactivity in materials under certain conditions can reach the hazardous radiological levels. So, it becomes necessary to study the natural radioactivity in different materials to assess the dose for the population in order to know the health risks and to have a baseline for future changes in the environmental radioactivity due to human activities. Materials and ...
متن کاملBuilding Conservation through Cycling: Exploring the Relationship between Bicycling and Environmental Conservation
This research reports on an investigation of the relationship between individuals’ biking behavior and their views on environmental sustainability. It was hypothesized that there would be a significant difference between those who regularly bicycle and those who rarely or never bicycle and their sustainable behaviors. This quantitative study used a survey of 169 people from the University of Ne...
