Building Energy Simulations & Optimizations
Abstract
Increasingly, computer simulations and optimizations of energy flow inside built environment are being employed to inform decisions in building design, construction, operation, and maintenance. The objectives are improved energy efficiency, minimum life cycle cost, quality life support, and optimised environmental performance. The submitted papers should deal with different simulation and optimization tools and techniques for (1) building physics; (2) air conditioning and heating systems; (3) energy supply systems, (4) air movement in buildings; (5) indoor air quality, (6) building services (lighting systems, cold and hot water supply); and (7) environmentally green buildings.Biography of the Special Session Organizer
