A new method to estimate point thermal transmittance based on combined two-dimensional heat flow calculation [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
A well-insulated, airtight and thermal bridge free building envelope is a key factor for nearly zero energy buildings (nZEB). However, increased insulation thickness and minimized air leakages increase the effect of thermal bridges on overall energy ...

Heat Loss Due to Domestic Hot Water Pipes

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
Domestic hot water (DHW) system energy losses are an important part of energy consumption in newly built or in reconstructed apartment buildings. To reach nZEB or low energy building targets (renovation cases) we should take these losses into account ...

Development of prefabricated insulation elements for buildings with aerated autoclaved concrete walls [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
An extensive need for the refurbishment and renewal of existing building stock has been the focus of consideration for many decades, principally because of the high global energy consumption and pollution levels.
