Application of ISO/DIS 52016-3 for Dynamic Shadings in an Office Building
Norouziasas, Alireza; Rahif, Ramin; Mohamed, Mohamed Hamdy Hassan; Attia, Shady (Journal article, 2023)Adaptive building envelope technologies can improve buildings' energy efficiency while maintaining a comfortable indoor environment. However, with the growing trend of developing new technologies for building performance ... -
Application of Simulation-Based Framework to Evaluate Performance of an Optimized Nearly Zero Energy Dwelling During Heatwaves in Belgium
Rahif, Ramin; Norouziasas, Alireza; Mohamed, Mohamed Hamdy Hassan; Attia, Shady (Journal article, 2023)This study examines three optimal solutions for mitigating overheating caused by disruptions in the cooling system amid heatwaves in Brussels. For this aim, the three highest maximal temperature heatwaves are selected ... -
Evaluation of occupant’s adaptive thermal comfort behaviour in naturally ventilated courtyard houses
Pilechiha, Peiman; Norouziasas, Alireza; Ghorbani Naeini, Hoorieh; Jolma, Kasmir (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Purpose In vernacular buildings, many climatic and passive solutions have been used to create indoor thermal comfort. Seasonal occupant movement is an example of a traditional response to increasing thermal comfort. ... -
Impact of building envelope parameters on occupants’ thermal comfort and energy use in courtyard houses
Hamdy, Mohamed; Ghorbani Naeini, Hoorieh; Norouziasas, Alireza (Journal article, 2023)Courtyard houses constructed recently with air-conditioning systems need to increase efficiency by simultaneously reducing thermal load and improving thermal comfort in all seasonal zones around the yard. The envelope ... -
Impact of climate change on nearly zero-energy dwelling in temperate climate: Time-integrated discomfort, HVAC energy performance, and GHG emissions
Rahif, Ramin; Norouziasas, Alireza; Elnagar, Essam; Doutreloup, Sébastien; Pourkiaei, Seyed Mohsen; Amaripadath, Deepak; Romain, Anne-Claude; Fettweis, Xavier; Attia, Shady (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Global warming is widely recognized to affect the built environment in several ways. This paper projects the current and future climate scenarios on a nearly zero-energy dwelling in Brussels. Initially, a time-integrated ... -
Impact of Positioning Phase Change Materials on Thermal Performance of Buildings in Cold Climates
Norouziasas, Alireza; Yin, Hang; Hamdy, Mohamed (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The building envelope, an essential component of any building, plays a critical role in meeting energy efficiency and thermal comfort requirements. Incorporating phase change materials (PCM) into the building envelope can ...
