Modeling, Design, and Optimization of Net-Zero Energy Buildings (Solar Heating and Cooling)

by William O'Brien Andreas Athienitis

Building energy design is currently going through a period of major changes. One key factor of this is the adoption of net-zero energy as a long term goal for new buildings in most developed countries. To achieve this goal a lot of research is needed to accumulate knowledge and to utilize it in practical applications. In this book, accomplished international experts present advanced modeling techniques as well as in-depth case studies in order to aid designers in optimally using simulation tools for net-zero energy building design. The strategies and technologies discussed in this book are, however, also applicable for the design of energy-plus buildings. This book was facilitated by International Energy Agency's Solar Heating and Cooling (SHC) Programs and the Energy in Buildings and Communities (EBC) Programs through the joint SHC Task 40/EBC Annex 52: Towards Net Zero Energy Solar Buildings R&D collaboration. After presenting the fundamental concepts, design strategies, and technologies required to achieve net-zero energy in buildings, the book discusses different design processes and tools to support the design of net-zero energy buildings (NZEBs). A substantial chapter reports on four diverse NZEBs that have been operating for at least two years. These case studies are extremely high quality because they all have high resolution measured data and the authors were intimately involved in all of them from conception to operating. By comparing the projections made using the respective design tools with the actual performance data, successful (and unsuccessful) design techniques and processes, design and simulation tools, and technologies are identified. Written by both academics and practitioners (building designers) and by North Americans as well as Europeans, this book provides a very broad perspective. It includes a detailed description of design processes and a list of appropriate tools for each design phase, plus methods for parametric analysis and mathematical optimization. It is a guideline for building designers that draws from both the profound theoretical background and the vast practical experience of the authors.

Modellbasierte Produktentwicklung: Kundenbedürfnisse verstehen und tradierte Denkstile überwinden (essentials)

by Werner Engeln

Was sind die Ursachen dafür, dass mit viel Aufwand entwickelte Produkte im Markt scheitern? Die Produkte wurden an den Bedürfnissen der Kunden*innen vorbei entwickelt. Aber kein Unternehmen wird bewusst an den Kundenbedürfnissen vorbei entwickeln. Das vorliegende Buch befasst sich mit der Frage, wie objektiv eigentlich die Bedürfnisse von Kunden*innen ihren Weg in die Entwicklungsorganisation eines Unternehmens finden können und wie objektive sie dort in ein Produkt umgesetzt werden können. Ausgehend von Antworten auf diese Frage wird ein Ansatz entwickelt, mit Hilfe physischer Modelle eine frühzeitige Wahrnehmung der Produktattribute durch Kunden*innen zu ermöglichen, so deren Bedürfnisse genauer zu treffen und damit die Erfolgswahrscheinlichkeit der Produkte im Markt zu verbessern.

Modelling Approaches to Understand Salinity Variations in a Highly Dynamic Tidal River: The Case of the Shatt al-Arab River (IHE Delft PhD Thesis Series)

by Ali Dinar Abdullah

This book reports the first systematic monitoring and modelling study on water availability, water quality and seawater intrusion of the Shatt al-Arab River (SAR) on the border of Iraq and Iran, where causes and concentration levels of salinity have not yet been fully understood, let alone addressed, leading to conflicting perceptions of its origin (external or internal), the natural conditions and the practices that can explain the current critical conditions. Current scientific knowledge on the SAR salinity problem is deficient, partially due to the complex and dynamic interaction between marine and terrestrial salinity sources, including return flows by water users of the different water sectors in the Euphrates and Tigris rivers upstream of the SAR. The development of a new series of monitoring stations and various modelling approaches helped to better understand the interactions between these different sources. The comprehensive and detailed dataset formed the basis for a validated analytical model that can predict the extent of seawater relative to other salinity sources in an estuary, and for a hydrodynamic model that can predict salinity changes. The adaptability of the models to changing conditions makes them directly applicable by water managers. The procedure can be applied to other comparable systems.
