Rational using of energy in buildings B37311

Course content: Calculations of the seasonal demand for heating of a building in a standard heating season. Heat balance and the contribution of individual components, depending on the shape of the building and its technical condition. Opportunity to influence the individual components of the heat balance through rationalization of energy use in the building. Evaluation of energy efficiency, economic and environmental undertakings rationalizing energy consumption in the building. The effectiveness of the energy efficiency of heating and ventilation depending on the type of heat source, energy source and heating system.

Learning outcomes: Ability to evaluate different ways of building energy efficiency and to determine their effectiveness.
