Empirical validation and local sensitivity analysis of a lumped-parameter thermal model of an outdoor test cell
Cattarin, Giulio; Pagliano, Lorenzo; Causone, Francesco; Kindinis, Andrea; Goia, Francesco; Carlucci, Salvatore; Schlemminger, Christian (Journal article, 2018)This paper presents the experimental validation of a thermal model describing the ZEB Test Cells Laboratory, located at the Gløshaugen campus of NTNU and SINTEF in Trondheim, Norway. Besides, a local sensitivity analysis ... -
Energy retrofit for a climate resilient child care centre
Pagliano, Lorenzo; Carlucci, Salvatore; Causone, Francesco; Moazami, Amin; Cattarin, Giulio (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Climate scientists have developed and refined climate change models on a global scale. One of the aims of these models is to predict the effects of human activities on climate, and thus the delivery of information that is ... -
Multi-objective optimization of a nearly zero-energy building based on thermal and visual discomfort minimization using a non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II)
Carlucci, Salvatore; Cattarin, Giulio; Causone, Francesco; Pagliano, Lorenzo (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-07-06)Multi-objective optimization methods provide a valid support to buildings’ design. They aim at identifyingthe most promising building variants on the basis of diverse and potentially contrasting needs. However,optimization ... -
Retrofit of a Kindergarten Targeting Zero Energy Balance
Causone, Francesco; Carlucci, Salvatore; Moazami, Amin; Cattarin, Giulio; Pagliano, Lorenzo (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-11)Old buildings that are severe energy wasters and provide low indoor environmental quality (IEQ) form a large fraction of the European building stock. These buildings represent nevertheless, an asset that should be re-evaluated ...
