Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation and feasibility analysis on a capillary radiant heating system based on solar and air source heat pump dual heat source
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a solar phase change thermal storage (SPCTS) heating system using a radiant-capillary-terminal (RCT) to effectively match the low temperature hot water, and an air source heat pump (ASHP) as an alternate energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Airborne bacteria, fungi, and endotoxin levels in residential microenvironments: a case study
TL;DR: The amount of ventilation and the types of human activities carried out in the indoor environment appeared to be important factors affecting the level of these airborne biological contaminants.
Journal ArticleDOI
A preliminary evaluation of two strategies for raising indoor air temperature setpoints in office buildings
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented findings from an attempt to improve occupant comfort and reduce energy use at 33 buildings by adjusting internal air temperature setpoints to account for seasonal variations in ambient climatic conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Building sustainability objective assessment in Estonian context and a comparative evaluation with LEED and BREEAM
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared indicators and their levels from Estonian regulations against LEED and BREEAM requirements and found that the gap between the current best practice and the highest score of a sustainable building scheme was not large.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using machine learning algorithms to predict occupants’ thermal comfort in naturally ventilated residential buildings
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors used machine learning algorithms to predict occupants' thermal comfort votes (TCV) and thermal sensation votes (TSV), using 5512 sets of thermal comfort data collected in naturally ventilated residential buildings in fourteen cities in China.
