Within the European research project HOPE, a multi-disciplinary study was performed in nine European countries, by auditing 160 apartments and office buildings, of which half of them can be characterised as having low energy use. The investigating tools we ...
Within the European research project HOPE, 67 office buildings and 97 residential ones were investigated using checklists addressing the building characteristics and questionnaires to the occupants asking their perceived comfort (thermal visual, acoustical ...
Methods to measure airflow rates using tracer gas in single air handling units are well known. In some buildings however, in particular in Singapore, rooms are often ventilated with two or more units and present large recirculation rates. Large recirculati ...
One of the aims of the HOPE project is to develop a method to assess healthiness and energy efficiency of buildings and strategies to optimise their performance towards health and energy efficiency. In this project, a building is defined "Healthy and Energ ...
The paper deals with the main problems to solve in order to simulate precisely the behavior of complex power systems with mixed elements (power components and digital regulation devices). The main features of an efficient simulation tool are described. The ...
Dynamic simulation is an accurate but time-consuming way tu calculate energy and thermal comfort performances of passive solar buildings. Simplified methods, originally developed to evercome their disadvantage, unfortunately do not provide the same quantit ...
Biotrickling filter (BTF) technology was applied for the treatment of waste gas containing a mixture of chlorobenzene and 1,2-dichlorobenzene. An adapted microbial community was immobilised on a structured packing material. The strategy followed was to rea ...
