Department of Architectural Engineering

Synopsis:

The course is based on fundamental knowledge in thermal protection of buildings. It is focused on buildings with extremely low energy demand (passive and zero-energy buildings). Environmental performance of such buildings will be analyzed. An extra attention is given to combination of minimized energy demand and application of components with renewable energy use. Methods of estimation of energy demand of buildings and their assemblies suitable for early stages of design processes, for support of strategic decisions at city level and as an input for more general models. Aggregated energy characteristics of buildings are used for mid-time and long-time prognoses considering the changed boundary condition due to climate change.
