Building Design for Hot and Humid Climates – Implications on Thermal Comfort and Energy Efficiency
The paper discusses the concept of an adaptive thermal comfort design methodology and its impact on the selection, design and performance of climate control systems for large public spaces with transient occupancy in hot and humid climates. It outlines the design methodology which is based on providing localised comfort conditions to zones within a building based on its occupancy patterns, acti...
متن کاملImpacts of Building Insulation on Energy Consumption in Different Climates of Iran: A Cost Analysis
One of the most important energy-saving of building is suitable choice of insulation with regard to the climatic conditions of each region. In this study, the effects of building insulations approved by the Research Center of Way, Housing and Urban Development with regard to the cost of insulation on energy consumption in the region of Yazd, Tehran and Tabriz was evaluated by software Energy Pl...
متن کاملFactors Affecting Corn Silage Quality in Hot and Humid Climates
Dairy farmers in many parts of the world rely on corn silage as a source of digestible fiber and readily fermentable energy for their cattle. In Florida, Georgia and many tropical countries, such farmers face several climatic challenges that can complicate corn silage production including temperatures that reduce the rate of photosynthesis (Crafts-Brandner and Salvucci, 2002) and reduction in p...
متن کاملAn Intelligent System for Improving Energy Efficiency in Building Using Ontology and Building Automation Systems
Energy efficiency is a keyword that can be found nowadays in all domains in which energy demand exists. The steadily rising energy demand, the consequent energy scarcity and rising prices of energy resources are forcing companies and people to redefine their activities in a more energy efficient way. Besides industry and transportation, the building sector is the most important energy consumer,...
متن کاملEnergy life cycle analysis of a residential building with the help of BIM in different climates of Iran
With energy resource scarcity and energy crisis in the world, energy efficiency has become a subject of great importance. In warm and humid climates as well as cold and mountainous ones, annual energy consumption is too high to achieve desirable living conditions in built environments, and hence energy efficiency measures and practices in such buildings is of utmost priority. Given the direct r...
