The natural ventilation and the energy consumption are very important characteristics in buildings. Representation of the patterns for better natural ventilation performance versus lower increase in energy consumption is significant and useful. This study is simulating an office building in the temperate and humid climate of Rasht in Iran, and calculated the annual ventilation and the energy co...

Nowadays, energy consumption management is a vital strategy for societies to optimize energy consumption. Considering the widespread functions of electrical energy in human lives,a high proportion of consumption management procedures deals with the management of electrical energy consumption. It is important to study the state of electrical energy and provide managerial and optimal management s...

this paper surveys economic growth and energy consumption relationship by new econometric methods in different sectors of iran. this study uses panel error correction model and panel co integration and causality tests to investigate short run and long run relationship between energy and value added growth in different sectors of iran’s economy with regards to energy price in the time period of ...

drying of agricultural products is a sophisticated process with high energy consumption. energy needed for sustainable development, is one of the biggest challenges facing humanity. the performance of a heat recovery assisted solar dryer was evaluated in this study. drying time, collector efficiency, energy consumption, solar fraction and energy recovery fraction were investigated at different ...

this paper studies the modeling and optimization of energy use and greenhouse gas emissions of eggplant production using artificial neural network and multi-objective genetic algorithm in guilan province of iran. results showed that the highest share of energy consumption belongs to diesel fuel (49.24%); followed by nitrogen (33.30%). the results indicated that a total energy input of 13910.67 ...

in order to examine the hypothesis of this research, an accidental sample of 122 students have been appointed from among the community of female students who were studying at the last year of primary school in isfahan . the sample was divided into four groups, cognitive group, behavioral group, cognitive- behavioral group and control group. the impacts of independent variables have been assesse...

in this study, green pepper was dried by a laboratory scale microwave-convective dryer. the effects of microwave power on drying rate, effective moisture diffusivity, and energy consumption of green pepper were studied at four different microwave powers of 180, 360, 540, and 720w. the drying data were fitted to the four thin-layer drying models. the moisture reduction of the green pepper sample...

in this study greenhouse tomato production was investigated from energy consumption and greenhouse gas (ghg) emission point of views. moreover, artificial neural networks (anns) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (anfis) were employed to model energy consumption for greenhouse tomato production. total energy input and output were calculated as 1316.14 and 281.1 gj/ha. among the all ener...
