Summary | Energy consumption of residential buildings has been evaluated by using the experimental dwellings, in which occupants' behavior is simulated mechanically. But more detailed data is needed for dealing with new energy-saving equipment, unclear techniques, and a variety of lifestyles. This research has improved the estimation method of energy conservation related to air conditioning system, floor heating, cooling and ventilation. |
