Optimum Thickness of Thermal Insulation with Both Economic and Ecological Costs of Heating and Cooling

Energies, 2021
The energy efficiency of the construction sector should be determined by the cleanliness of the environment and, thus, the health of society. The scientific aim of this article was to develop a methodology for determining the optimum thickness of thermal

Analysis of Cooling and Heating Degree Days over Mexico in Present and Future Climate

Atmosphere, 2021
One simple way to estimate the relationship between air temperature and the energy needed for heating and cooling is to use the concept of degree day. Cooling degree days (CDD) and heating degree days (HDD) are indicators of the energy required to reach ...

An efficient climate index for reflecting cooling energy consumption: Cooling degree days based on wet bulb temperature

Meteorological Applications, 2021
Cooling energy consumption of buildings is not only used for decreasing temperature, but for dehumidification. Therefore, cooling degree day (CDD) based on only temperature is insufficient for estimating the cooling energy consumption in buildings.

Country-level energy demand for cooling has increased over the past two decades

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023
Cooling degree days provide a simple indicator to represent how temperature drives energy demand for cooling. We investigate, at country level, the changes in cooling degree days worldwide in a recent twenty-one-year period starting in 2000.

Assessment of vulnerability to overheating at a regional scale through parametric simulation models and cooling degree-days analysis: The case of southern Spanish social housing stock

, 2023
The urgent need to adapt urban environments to extreme weather conditions due to global warming has become a priority when allocating European funds. Current regional retrofitting plans focus on improving the well-being of the most vulnerable families by

Determination of heating and cooling degree-day values and heating and cooling-days in broiler husbandry: central Anatolian case

Engineering for Rural Development, 2018
The general aim of barns is to create suitable environments for animals against adverse weather conditions. Barns should be designed in such a way as to minimize the effect of weather changes and keep indoor conditions at the values of animals' desire.

An optimized solar-air degree-day method to evaluate energy demand for poultry buildings in different climate zones [PDF]

Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering, 2020
The degree-day method is widely used to determine energy consumption but cannot be directly applied to poultry buildings without improvements in its accuracy.
