Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the performance gap in industrial, residential & tertiary near-Zero energy buildings
Nikos Kampelis,Kostas Gobakis,Vagias Vagias,D. Kolokotsa,Laura Standardi,Daniela Isidori,Cristina Cristalli,Fabio Maria Montagnino,Filippo Paredes,Pietro Muratore,Luca Venezia,Μ. Kyprianou Dracou,Alaric Montenon,Andri Pyrgou,Theoni Karlessi,Mat Santamouris +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of energy dynamic and quasi-dynamic models with data from smart monitoring systems, indoor and outdoor environment measurements, power consumption and production data is performed to explore the performance gap between energy efficiency prediction in the design phase and measurements' evaluation in operational phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a model for urban heat island prediction using neural network techniques
Kostas Gobakis,Dionysia Kolokotsa,Afroditi Synnefa,M. Saliari,K. Giannopoulou,M. Santamouris +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the applicability of artificial neural networks (ANNs) and learning paradigms for UHI intensity prediction in Athens, Greece has been presented and tested using Elman, Feed-Forward and Cascade neural network architecture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat mitigation technologies can improve sustainability in cities. An holistic experimental and numerical impact assessment of urban overheating and related heat mitigation strategies on energy consumption, indoor comfort, vulnerability and heat-related mortality and morbidity in cities
Mattheos Santamouris,Riccardo Paolini,Shamila Haddad,Afroditi Synnefa,Samira Garshasbi,Gertrud Hatvani-Kovacs,Kostas Gobakis,Komali Yenneti,Konstantina Vasilakopoulou,Jie Feng,K. Gao,Georgios Papangelis,A. Dandou,Georgia Methymaki,Panagiotis Portalakis,Maria Tombrou +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed and evaluated eight heat mitigation scenarios based on the use of reflective surfaces, additional greenery, an increase in the evapotranspiration rate and several combinations of these factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cool roofs and cool pavements application in Acharnes, Greece
Dionysia Kolokotsa,Gerassimos Giannariakis,Kostas Gobakis,Giannis Giannarakis,Afroditi Synnefa,Mat Santamouris +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the application of cool materials in the urban region of Acharnes municipality in Greece is described, where cool roofs in the form of ceiling tiles are installed on the rooftop of the municipality building while cool paving stones are used to replace conventional pavements.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the cooling potential of cool roofs in cold climates: Use of cool fluorocarbon coatings to enhance the optical properties and the energy performance of industrial buildings
Elena Mastrapostoli,Theoni Karlessi,Alexandros Pantazaras,Dionysia Kolokotsa,Kostas Gobakis,Mattheos Santamouris,Mattheos Santamouris +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the contribution of an innovative cool fluorocarbon coating in the reduction of energy demand for cooling when applied in an industrial building with increased heat gains under temperate climatic conditions is analyzed.
