Abstract:
The proposal of energy efficiency measures in the residential sector in Argentina requires analyzing the architectonic possibilities of building rehabilitation using technologies that reduce energy consumption, that are feasible to implement locally. In regions with high solar radiation levels, as is the case of the city of Mendoza, heat fluxes transmitted inside can be reduced by the natural ventilation of the layers in the envelope, both on facades and roofs, thus obtaining significant savings in consumption for cooling purposes.

Abstract Reducing the energy consumption needed for creating suitable indoor conditions has become a significant issue on a global scale. The building’s envelope and service systems have the most important influence over the amount of energy consumed. This aspect is related to reducing the heat flux across the building envelope in summer conditions and preventing the condensation and infiltration risk in the winter period. The research regarding ventilated façades has advanced taking into account these advantages, which emphasized the need to study and create constructive solutions adapted to

Abstract DTU has established a single-family three-level test house in Nuuk, Greenland. The main idea of the house was to have a relatively small heated area but a split building envelope, where a ventilated space behind the rain screen in some areas could be used as a sunroom. This paper describes the process of transforming the architectural ideas to a test building. Main issues have been how to design the rain screen and how to ventilate the space behind the rain screen.

Abstract:
Abstract The walls in a building envelope have the largest contact area with the exterior environment, and, therefore, a considerable portion of the thermal energy can be lost through the walls compared to the other parts of the building envelope. For energy-saving purposes, the thermal transmittance of walls is typically limited by building energy performance standards at the national level. However, the presence of a ventilated air-space behind the external cladding, which has variable hydro-dynamic behavior, can differently affect the total thermal transmittance of the entire structure.

Abstract:
Abstract A large proportion of the world’s population resides in developing countries where there is a lack of rigorous studies in designing energy efficient buildings. This study is a step in designing a naturally ventilated high rise residential building in a tropical climatic context of the developing country, Pakistan. Karachi, the largest city of Pakistan, lies in the subtropical hot desert region with constant high temperature of average 32 °C throughout the summer and no particular winter season. The Design Builder software package is used to design a 25 storey high rise residential bui

<em>Brazil, with a territorial extension of approximately 8.5 million km&sup2; and diverse climatic conditions, is distributed into eight bioclimatic zones. This study examined the impact of thermal insulation on the envelope of a single-family social housing unit located in bioclimatic zones 3 and 8 in Brazil. Various envelope solutions that incorporate thermal insulation were evaluated to assess the effect on the nighttime energy performance of artificially conditioned bedrooms. The analyses were conducted through computer simulations using EnergyPlus 8.1 software on a housing unit model wit

Abstract:
A large part of the school building stock in Andalusia lacks ventilation facilities, so that the air renewal of the classrooms is achieved through the building envelope (air infiltration) or the opening of windows. This research analyses the airtightness of the classrooms in Andalusia and the evolution of CO2 concentration during school hours through in situ monitoring. Pressurization and depressurization tests were performed in 42 classrooms and CO2 concentration was measured in two different periods, winter and midseason, to study the impact of the different levels of aperture of windows.

Abstract:
A Multiple (MSF) or Double Skin Facade (DSF) is a building envelope system. It has an external and internal layer that contains buffer space used for controlled windy conditions, ventilation and solar protection. Employing a multiple or double-skin facade for natural ventilation is not an innovative idea, but the background on this mechanism and the impacts of these environmental and designing factors on its performance are still unknown and critically needed. Therefore, with this study, the influences of the Multiple or Double Skin Facade with different width air gaps configurations, alongsid

Abstract The building sector contributes to a great part of energy consumption and has a major impact on climate in Europe. Development of climate-friendly and energy-efficient products is required to reach low and net-zero energy buildings and to facilitate the energy transition. The building envelope is critical in defining the demand for space heating and cooling as well as ensuring thermal comfort and indoor environmental quality through proper ventilation.

Currently, in the Republic of Khakassia, much attention is paid to research aimed at reducing air pollution due to fuel combustion. In this aspect, the issue of increasing the energy efficiency of buildings is relevant. The use of ventilated facade systems with an air gap makes it possible to improve the energy efficiency class of buildings and modernize the facades. However, these facade systems have weak points that require detailed and high-quality study. Often, design solutions are used that are used in warm climates without taking into account the peculiarities of a cold climate - frequen

The article shows that a large percentage of the housing stock of Ukraine is represented by panel houses of the mass series of construction in the 1960s-1980s, which were built with understated indicators of the normative requirements for the thermal resistance of the enclosing structures.It is shown that the underestimated indicators of the thermal resistance of the building envelope led to excessive energy consumption per m2 of the outdated housing stock, which exceeds the indicators of the EU countries by 2.0-2.5 times.

Abstract:
Abstract Materials used in the building envelope have to withstand a wide range of varying and harsh conditions over their life cycle. Particular relevance falls upon the materials used for tightening buildings, such as wind barriers and tapes, as air infiltration was found to be responsible for between 10 and 30 % of heat losses of different national building stocks in Europe. However, there is large uncertainty about the conditions a material is exposed to over a building’s service life.
