Aim:
The aim of this course is to provide solid knowledge and computational tools for analysing buildings energy systems from a system view and give an understanding for the building as an energy system. Different kind of buildings are considered, both residential and industry buildings. A top-down approach is used in the course, starting with international view, ending in a study of the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems within the building. The environmental performance of buildings will be covered. After the course the students should have knowledge about the following topics:
Indoor environmental quality (IEQ)
Heat and mass transfer in buildings
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems in buildings
Energy supply systems
Environmental performance of buildings
Future building energy systems solutions
