  Advancement level (G1, G2, A): G2

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


  • Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
    Fluid dynamics and heat transfer

    Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

    Supplementary courses:
    Energy Systems analysis, Industrial Ecology, Industrial Energy Systems, Integrated management systems, Impact assessment and project appraisal, International energy markets, Resource effective products

    Organisation:
    The course is given in the form of lectures, tutorials and laboratory work.

    Course contents:
    Energy supply and demand in the built environment, global and national point of view; Energy supply systems; Environmental impact of built environment; Indoor climate and indoor air quality; heat and mass transfer; heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems; energy and power demand; future buildings; buildings in energy systems.
