Block morphology refers to critical parameters influencing building energy performance on the block scale. However, analysis of combined effect morphological consumption with real blocks is lacking. In this paper, aim evaluate office in context Hot-summer and Cold-winter zone China. First, a workflow for assessment buildings coupled scale was proposed evaluation tools. Seventy Wuhan were taken as examples then classified based layout typology height. Afterwards, use intensity (EUI) different...
With the accelerated development of subways in China, elevated subway stations (ESSs) capitalize on natural ventilation and lighting to significantly save energy. Nevertheless, their thermal environments are rarely addressed. This study conducts annual environment measurements, surveys, comfort analysis five typical ESS buildings. The results field measurements demonstrate that station’s is influenced by architectural space forms such as skylight ratio, platform doors, openness, form....
PV integration within multiple building surfaces beyond roofs enables us to utilise additional solar energy. One key research interest in the field is on selecting suitable for integrated (BIPV) projects that achieve an optimal techno-economic performance. Current methods using arbitrary threshold-based approaches limit design flexibility and lack ability of evaluating performance specific options which consist different combinations adoption. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel...
