The course provides the basics of energy analysis of buildings and associated thermal plants, illustrates the actual European and national regulations and approaches the dynamic simulation of buildings with a software open-source.
At the end of course the student is expected to be able to:
understand engineering problems related to the building and its thermal plants;
estimate the thermal loads of the building;
approach the sizing process of the thermal plants.
Lectures
Building shell: losses and gains through opaque and glazed components, requested minimal global heat transfer coefficients, thermal bridges, Glaser analysis; solutions to improve the efficiency of opaque and glazed components of the envelope; infiltration and ventilation loads; internal gains.
Thermal plants: fundamentals of thermal comfort; fundamentals of psychometry and air conditioning; chillers and heat pumps; all-air plants and air handlers sizing; furnaces; plants efficiency.
Plant-building interactions: Determination of primary energy requirements in buildings; high efficiency plants solutions.
Introduction to the open source software EnergyPlus for the dynamic energy simulation of buildings.
