Current and future geographical distribution of the indoor conditions for high thermal inertia historic buildings across Portugal via hygrothermal simulation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Meteorological conditions play a major influence on the indoor conditions of buildings, especially in southern European countries, where the hygrothermal requirements are systematically neglected, on contrast to northern ... -
The impact of wind upon the pulse technique measured airtightness of a detached dwelling
(Building and Environment;Volume 215, 1 May 2022, 108955, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-03-14)The novel Pulse technique measures the building airtightness in a dynamic approach, involving a lowpressure pressurisation process, typically in 1-10Pa. It is known that the wind effect is one of the main sources of ... -
Life cycle analysis of GHG emissions from the building retrofitting: The case of a Norwegian office building
(Building and Environment;Volume 204, 15 October 2021, 108159, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-07-16)Through a systematic study, this paper conducted a life cycle assessment (LCA) consisting of evaluation of both embodied and operational emissions of different building retrofitting scenarios for a typical office building, ... -
Temperature-dependent ventilation rates might improve perceived air quality in a demand-controlled ventilation strategy
(Building and Environment;Volume 205, November 2021, 108180, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-07-24)The aim of the Best Vent project was to find the optimal control strategy for demand-controlled ventilation (DCV) without compromising on indoor air quality. In this paper, we discuss control strategies that would ensure ... -
Ten questions concerning positive energy districts
(Building and Environment;Volume 216, 15 May 2022, 109017, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-04-01)Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) constitute an emerging energy transition paradigm, with an ambitious timeline for rapid upscaling to match the urgency of climate mitigation and adaptation. Increasingly networked and ...
