Exploring robustness of energy performance of dwellings to occupant behaviour: Renovation and post occupancy

In this paper, we focus on the influence of occupant behaviour on the energy performance of dwellings, before and after renovation process. In this context, ‘ventilation control pattern’, ‘maintenance’, and ‘heating energy demand’ are selected as the key parameters of the study. The aim is to reveal the sensitivity of energy performance of a...

Exploring design support possibilities of building performance simulation tools in building design process

Simulation is claimed to be an effective tool in building design to degrade the systems integration matter into comprehension of designers with either a tool or a process related approach. In this study, pre-design phase is considered with energy performance point of view. Aim of the study is exploring integration possibilities of building...
