In buildings, energy is primarily consumed by mechanical air conditioning systems. Low
energy alternatives, such as natural ventilation, are needed. However, they need to be able …

It is of great significance to achieve the prediction of building energy consumption. However,
machine learning, as a promising technique for many practical applications, was rarely …

Our current 1.1 C warmer world is already affecting natural and human systems in Europe
(very high confidence1). Since AR5, there has been a substantial increase in detected or …

This paper aims to investigate the indoor comfort conditions in a typical classroom of a
secondary school in Cyprus and explore the impact of natural ventilation on both thermal …

The climate change leads to periods of extreme events (ie reduction of cold seasons, heat
waves, overheating, urban heat island among others) that affect the performance of …

Cairo is characterized by high temperatures compared to the adjacent rural areas. This
phenomenon is known as Urban Heat Island (UHI). Due to this phenomenon, high …

The article presents the results of experimental research carried out in two real-scale
detached energy-efficient single-family buildings designed to be almost identical with …

This study investigates the potential of PCM and natural ventilation to strengthen the thermal
comfort inside the lightweight relocatable building located in Kazakhstan during the summer …

During the last decade in the European Union, some targets have been set to reduce energy
consumption in buildings, promoting the construction of nearly Zero Energy Buildings and …

As the climate changes globally and locally, the built environment will be subject to different
climatic exposure than in the past. Adaptation measures are required to ensure the long …
