... shows higher energy consumption for space heating during winter compared to cooling in summer. The regression involving gas used for space heating in winter demonstrated a stronger correlation with temperature than heating, ventilation and air-conditioning electricity in summer for the monthly temporal...

...Yaolin Lin; Wei Yang Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a tri-optimization approach to optimize design solutions regarding the building shape and envelope properties considering their implications on thermal comfort, visual comfort and building energy consumption (EN...

... for energy consumption savings. With this background, the main aim of this study is to generate knowledge to find out to what extent light multi‐layered façades are better, determining which façades are the most efficient and guarantee the comfort conditions of a building, contributing in this way to energy...
