TL;DR: In this article, a literature review on the basic and applied research in RHC systems for the built environment is conducted, in terms of thermal comfort, thermal analysis including heat transfer model, heating/cooling capacity, CFD analysis, energy simulation, system configuration and control strategies.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed an optimized ANN model to determine the optimal start time for a heating system in a building, which is used to map non-linear relationships between inputs and outputs without knowing the details of these relationships.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the important issues involved in the research on RHC system, whereby ten questions and answers concerning the radiating heating and cooling system are discussed, which will help researchers to conduct relevant studies.

TL;DR: In this article, a housing performance evaluation model for multi-family residential buildings in Korea is presented, which is intended to encourage initiatives toward achieving better housing performance and to support a homebuyer's decision-making on housing comparison and selection.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new control method for automated venetian blinds to maximize occupant comfort and daylight penetration into buildings based on occupants' preferences on daylight, which is designed to allow the occupants to define the zone they want protected from direct sunlight.
