Vertical vegetation systems are an innovative passive method for decreasing the thermal energy demand of buildings while increasing quality urban life. The main objective this work is to calculate effectiveness in reducing loads analytically. For purpose, performance modular living wall was compared with a traditional double façade construction system evaluate influence using Stochastic Differential Equations models. research carried out experimentally real-scale PASLINK test cell. behaviour...
Lan honetan Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatearen (UPV/EHU) jarduera akademikoaren ingurumen-aztarnaren emaitza nagusiak biltzen dira, etorkizunera begirako eta COVID19aren ondoriozko irakaskuntza-agertokien inpaktuak barne. Erreferentziazko agertokia 2016 urteari dagokio inbentarioa osatzeko UPV/EHUren energia- material-kontsumoen, sortutako hondakinen garraio beharren datuak bildu dira. hiru Campusak (Araba, Bizkaia Gipuzkoa) 2016/17 ikasturte 46,813 erabiltzaileen %96.8 (ikasleak: % 81.9,...
Cities are ought to play a key role in the energy transition low carbon society as they concentrate more than half of world's population and responsible for about 67% primary consumption around 70% energy-related CO2 emissions. To achieve agreed climate targets, efficient urban planning is must. Tools methods have risen model different aspects performance areas. Nevertheless, addressing complexity city system great challenge new integrated tools still needed. This paper presents methodology...
Following the example of national pledges and strategies to tackle climate change, cities are mobilising themselves towards decarbonisation, playing a key role in achievement those commitments due their relevance within energy systems. However, despite ambitions, there is need for coordinating efforts from local scales order ensure effective fulfilment goals at both levels. In this paper method transposition planning level proposed based on downscaling, adaptation, allocation specific...
Abstract Purpose This article aims to estimate the social footprint of a higher education institution (HEI) and its potential contribution Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) under life cycle assessment (LCA) perspective. The organisational (SO-LCA) academic activity University Basque Country (UPV/EHU), in northern Spain, has been performed, order impacts. Method run using openLCA software supported on PSILCA-based Soca add-on for Ecoinvent v3.3 database, covering 53 indicators almost...
This work has calculated the organisational environmental and social footprint of University Basque Country (UPV/EHU) in 2016. First, input output data flows UPV/EHU activity were collected. Next, impacts academic modelled, using Ecoinvent 3.3 database with PSILCA-based Soca v1 module openLCA software. In order to evaluate impacts, CML ReCiPe LCIA methods used. The Social Impact Weighting Method was adjusted for assessment specific impacts. modelling identified some hotspots organisation....
The thermal evaluation of building components composed a base wall with solar passive skin solution, such as vertical/roof greenery system, ventilated façade, reflective painting, etc., is usually performed whole. In this research, it has been proven that, independently the inertia and insulation level, temperature outermost surface layer any component during sunny hours mainly dependent on ambient air relative humidity, incident global radiation behaviour. latter assumption south reference...
The organisational life cycle assessment (O-LCA) and the social (SO-LCA) of University Basque Country UPV/EHU were conducted. data presented in this paper support calculation environmental footprint for year 2016 [1], may be used as a reference future calculations higher education institutions other organisations. This dataset provides detailed information on boundaries considered; compilation quantification inventory (LCI) -which included transport survey conducted summer 2018-; modelling...
The presented work compares two optimization models for combined heat and power (CHP) energy systems scheduling. Both are focused on the evaluation of best operating strategy to run a defined cogeneration system that is dealing with time-variable loads tariffs. simultaneous usage different prime movers in parallel taken into consideration as well their part load performance, influence ambient temperature, storage system. One heuristic adopts an based multi-step approach: it simulates several...
The hybridization of energy systems is based on the combined integration both renewable and non-renewable technologies thermal storage. These hybrid installations improve cost effectiveness efficiency when they are correctly designed operation strategy suitable. Despite relevance achieving optimal configuration, sizing control systems, there no simple generic methodology which allows this type to be optimized in project phase. In response issue, work, a mixed integer linear programming-based...
Accurate forecasting of a building thermal performance can help to optimize its energy consumption. In addition, obtaining the Heat Loss Coefficient (HLC) allows characterizing envelope under conditions use. The aim this work is study inertia developing new methodology based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks. This approach was applied Rectorate University Basque Country (UPV/EHU), located in north Spain. A comparison different time-lags selected catch has been carried out...
This article presents the methodology and results of model created to analyse impact transport habits University Basque Country (UPV/EHU). Based on a survey conducted in 2018, seven environmental categories economic cost have been modelled using openLCA software Ecoinvent v3.3 database. Nine modes considered, analysis incorporates segmentation by campus, trip purpose occupational group.Results show that 47 thousand people university community makes million return trips during year, which...
