Modeling atypical building use with commercially available building simulation software
TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-analysis of energy Audits for New Jersey National Guard Armories using eQUEST, a simulation software system that automates the very labor-intensive and therefore time-heavy and expensive process of manually cataloging and evaluating Guard armories.

Dissemination of PV-Battery systems in the German residential sector up to 2050: Technological diffusion from multidisciplinary perspectives
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors employ a socio-techno-economic (SoTeEc) framework to analyse the diffusion process of PV-Batteries in the residential sector and identify scenarios which fulfill simultaneously requirements from both the techno-economic and socio-economic point of view.

Analysis of Load Match in Nearly Zero Energy Buildings
Maurizio Cellura,Francesco Guarino,Sonia Longo,Giovanni Tumminia,Marco Ferraro,Francesco Sergi,Davide Aloisio,Vincenzo Antonucci +7 more
TL;DR: The paper presents the load match analysis of a case study: a modular housing construction built in Messina (Italy), where a parametric analysis was performed considering different scenarios on the generation side to explore the effectiveness of the solutions sets used in current design and plan different solutions for the future ones.

How to design a net-zero-energy solar building (nzesb) for mining or oil and gas projects in china's datong region
Changhai Peng,Wei Shen,Xi Xi +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss an innovative application for implemencing solar energy to mining companies and discuss the application of solar energy in the mining industry. But, they do not discuss an application for mining operations.
Toward cost-effective nearly zero energy buildings
TL;DR: A submitted manuscript is the version of the article upon submission and before peer-review as discussed by the authors, while a published version is the final layout of the paper including the volume, issue and page numbers.

Developing an adaptive model of thermal comfort and preference - eScholarship
Richard de Dear,Gail Brager +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the semantics of thermal comfort in terms of thermal sensation, acceptability, and preference, as a function of both indoor and outdoor temperature, as predicted by the adaptive hypothesis.

Developing an adaptive model of thermal comfort and preference
Richard de Dear,Gail Brager +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the adaptive hypothesis predicts that contextual factors and past thermal history modify building occupants' thermal expectations and preferences, which is contrary to static assumptions underlying the current ASHRAE comfort standard 55-92.
