Interest in the topics of energy efficiency and thermal comfort integrated with building
preservation in historic buildings is growing among researchers. Research has determined …

Natural ventilation in hot climates has the potential to save energy by reducing the need to
use mechanical systems. Particularly in historic buildings, it should be considered as a …

This review addresses the use of computational fluid dynamics for the interpretation and
preservation of heritage. Fluid dynamic simulations in the heritage field focus mostly on slow …

The indoor environment and its natural dynamics in small Spanish historical churches such
as the studied here depend on the variations of outdoor climate and the moisture dynamics …

The importance of historical buildings preservation is constantly increasing due to damage
concerns to cultural property. In these buildings, conservation should be a priority in the …

Conservation of historic churches' interior artistic and architectural heritage may be severely
compromised by heating systems that alter indoor microclimatic stability. The modern …

Historical building reuse is aimed at preservation, where buildings are recovered for new
uses connected to cultural activities. This paper presents the analysis of the impact of thermo …

Il “restauro energetico” di una risorsa culturale non rinnovabile: accanimento terapeutico o
indagine necessaria sul patrimonio storico? Nel campo della riconversione-rigenerazione …

In recent times, numerical simulations are increasingly gaining ground for the energy saving
