    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Natural ventilation; Airing; Air infiltration; Single-sided ventilation; Cross flow; Large single zones; Historical Churches; Model evaluation optimization; Field measurements; Wind tunnel; Indoor climate and Energy simulation; IDA-ICE; Tracer gas technique; Pressurization test.; Naturlig ventilation; Vädring; Luftinfiltration; Ensidig ventilation; Tvärdrag; Höga en-zonsbyggnader; Kulturhistoriska kyrkor; Modellutvärdering optimering; Fältmätningar; Vindtunnel; Inomhusklimat och energisimulering; IDA-ICE; Spårgas teknik; Trycksättningstest.; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : Natural ventilation is the dominating ventilation process in ancient buildings like churches, and also in most domestic buildings in Sweden and in the rest of the world. These buildings are naturally ventilated via air infiltration and airing. READ MORE

  4. 2. Influences from Building Energy Efficiency Refurbishment on a Regional District Heating System

    Author : Tina Lidberg; Louise Ödlund; Thomas Olofsson; Urban Persson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; District heating; energy efficiency; building refurbishment; greenhouse gases; primary energy; Fjärrvärme; energieffektivitet; byggnadsrenovering; växthusgaser; primärenergi; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development; Reesbe företagsforskarskola;

    Abstract : Improving energy performance of existing buildings is an important part in decreasing energy use and in turn reduce the greenhouse gas emissions caused by human activity and the primary energy use.To be able to evaluate how energy refurbishment influences the greenhouse gas emissions and the primary energy use a wider system perspective is needed that puts the building in its context.

  5. 3. Optimization of confluent jets ventilation with variable airflow

    Author : Harald Andersson; Mathias Cehlin; Roland Gårdhagen; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Confluent jets; Air distribution system; Air supply device; Ventilation performance; Indoor air quality; Thermal comfort; Experimental study; Computational fluid dynamics CFD ; Variable air volume.; confluent jets; luftdistributionssystem; tilluftsdon; ventilationsprestanda; inomhusluftkvalitet; termisk komfort; experimentell studie; Computational fluid dynamics CFD ; variabelflödessystem; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : In recent years, applications of confluent jets for design of ventilation supply devices have been widely studied. Similarly, numerous studies have been made on the potential and application of variable air volume (VAV) in order to reduce the energy demand of ventilation systems. READ MORE

  6. 4. Environmental assessment of the urban environment

    Author : Anna Forsberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : environmental assessment; urban district; environmental load profile; hammary sjöstad; life cycle assesssment;

    Abstract : This thesis gives a systematic description of theEnvironmental Load Profile (ELP), an environmental assessmenttool developed for the urban environment. The purpose of thework was to improve the stringency of the system boundaries andfunctional units of the tool. READ MORE

  7. 5. On the performance of stratified ventilation

    Author : Ulf Larsson; Bahram Moshfegh; Per Heiselberg; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : People nowadays spend most of their time indoors, for example in their homes, cars, in trains, at work, etc. In Sweden, the energy demand in the built environment is a growing issue. READ MORE
