Abstract:

Climate heat waves occurring in urban centers are a serious threat to public health and wellbeing. Historically, most heat-related mortalities have arisen from excessive overheating of building interiors housing older occupants. This paper developed an approach that combines the results from building simulation and bioheat models to generate health-based limit criteria for overheating in long-term care homes (LTCHs) by which the body dehydration and core temperature of older residents are capped during overheating events. The models of the LTCHs were created for buildings representative of old

Abstract:

Overheating in school buildings can negatively affect the cognitive learning performance of particularly young students whose thermoregulation systems are still developing. However, currently, in schools, issues related to overheating have been addressed by limiting the exposure time to thermal discomfort. In this paper, the development of a general procedure that combines building and bioheat simulations to evaluate overheating risk in schools and generate health-based overheating limit criteria that may be applied in Canadian schools is described.

Abstract:

A new set of CIBSE weather files for building performance simulation was recently developed to address the need for better quality solar data. These are essential for most building performance simulation applications, particularly for daylighting studies and low-energy building design, which requires detailed irradiation data for passive solar design and overheating risk analysis. The reliability of weather data becomes paramount when building performance is pushed to its limits. Findings illustrate how principles of good window design can be applied to a case study building, built to the Pass

Abstract:

The death toll of the 2003 heat wave in Europe exceeded 35,000 heat-related deaths. The elderly population were the most affected. The current paradigm within the construction industry in cold-dominant countries is to design/retrofit buildings with high levels of insulation. Whilst thermal comfort may be reached during colder months with this approach, the risk of overheating can be increased during hotter months. This paper aims to examine the impacts of a changing climate on the risk of overheating and energy performance for a UK retirement village. For this study, the buildings within the r

Buildings in Europe represent a significant portion of energy use, necessitating an optimal balance between thermal comfort and efficiency. BedZED set a pioneering example of zero energy design in the early 2000s, yet recent assessments reveal limitations in maintaining its performance over time. This study employs simulation models to examine BedZED’s current and future performance, investigating its response to targeted interventions aimed at enhancing thermal comfort, providing insights for adapting older energy-efficient designs to evolving climate and energy needs.

Abstract:

Overheating in buildings is one of the increasing concerns related to climate change and can lead to an increase in heat-related health issues and higher energy consumption due to the use of air conditioning systems. Literature shows that internal conditions and demand on environmental control systems can vary with height within buildings. However, an architectural trend towards highly glazed façades for tall buildings suggests the vertical gradient of performance is not always considered in the design process. By simulating a high-rise residential building in London, a comparative analysis of

Abstract:

There is growing concern that airtight and well-insulated buildings designed to limit heat loss in temperate and cold climates could unintentionally elevate the risk of overheating in summers. Existing literature primarily uses dynamic simulation to investigate this problem due to the difficulty of obtaining large-scale in-performance data. To address this gap, we undertake a meta-analysis of large-scale indoor air temperature data for 195 UK dwellings, as a study of performance in a temperate climate. Of these, 113 are baseline (i.e., typical existing dwellings) and the rest designed to the h

The façade retrofit market faces some key barriers: the selection of performance criteria and the reliability of the performance data. On the demand side, the problem is approached from an investment perspective which creates "split incentives" between the stakeholders who pay for the investment and those who benefit from it. On the supply side, there is an inherent complexity in modeling these options because of the incomplete knowledge of the physical and cost parameters involved in the performance evaluation. The thermal comfort of the building occupant is an important component of the re

AbstractGround-source heat pump systems that collect energy from thermal borehole fields can produce heat independent of the outdoor temperature, making them ideal for heating cold climates. To reduce the risk of boreholes freezing due to excessive heat drain, the boreholes must be spaced far enough apart from each other. This requires space on the ground, which can be a great challenge in urban environments with limited plot sizes.This study looks into the potential of using residential waste heat to reduce the space requirements of ground-source heat pump systems while maintaining the long-t

Over the last decades, urban expansion and global warming have increased the occurrence of wildland fires propagating at the vicinity of buildings at WUI. In this scenario, ornamental vegetation has been identified as a vector of fire propagation close to habitations, which can significantly increase the risk of damage [1]. In such context, it is necessary to quantify the thermal stress generated by an ornamental plant over a building to predict the vulnerability of construction materials. To this end, numerical simulation is a good candidate to easily multiply burning cases at field scale and
