As energy consumption for building engineering systems is a major part of the total spent, it necessary to reduce it. This leads need development new solutions control heating, ventilation, and conditioning (HVAC) that are responsive humans their demands. In this review article, existing research technology advancements modern technologies computer vision neural networks application in HVAC stu...

The present work proposes a simulation and control framework for home building automation, focusing on heating, ventilating, air conditioning processes. Control systems based different advanced architectures policies are simulated compared, highlighting performances, energy-saving results in terms of CO2 emissions reduction. Heat, lighting, natural ventilation phenomena were modelized through f...

Anomaly detection for indoor air quality (IAQ) data has become an important area of research as the is closely related to human health and well-being. However, traditional statistics shallow machine-learning (ML)-based approaches in anomaly IAQ could not detect anomalies involving observation correlations across several points (i.e., often referred long-term dependencies). We propose a hybrid d...

Stricter energy efficiency requirements of buildings have raised concerns about their effects on indoor air quality (IAQ). We studied measured and perceived IAQ in three low-energy wooden test using ventilation levels (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 (dm3/s)/m2). measurements included VOC (volatile organic compounds) sampling continuous several indicators. Perceived (PAQ) was investigated with a sensory panel un...

This work evaluates the integral effect of thermal comfort (TC), indoor air quality (IAQ) and Draught Risk (DR) for desks with four personalized ventilation (PV) systems. The numerical study, winter summer conditions, considers a virtual chamber, desk, different PV systems, seats manikins. Two configurations, two upper lower terminal devices (ATD) distance between them are considered. In this s...

The building sector has the responsibility of being a generator high carbon emissions, due to inefficient energy consumption in last decades. For European Union (EU) and sector, this pollution generated great impact concern, establishing objectives sustainability efficiency short term. EU, committed sustainability, established several guidelines, aiming at reducing emissions. reason, directives...

Energy efficiency in museums and buildings that house works of art or cultural heritage appears to be a difficult achievement if indoor air quality has kept at appropriate levels for artefacts’ long-term sustainability. There is gap our scientific literature on the relationship between energy efficiency, meaning there are no numerical data examine both them simultaneously, although this theme b...

Given that performance-based approaches secure maximum energy consumption for new buildings in more and building codes standards, such could ensure ventilation is designed to avoid risks occupants’ health. We have developed a approach assessing indoor air quality (IAQ) performance low-energy houses at the design stage of building, line with regulatory calculations. In this context, whole-buildi...
