  1. 6. Understanding the Building Processes of a Net-Zero Energy Building : A follow-up study on an energy effective campus building and interactions between the occupants and the smart HVAC system

    University essay from KTH/Hållbara byggnader

    Author : Ajaysingh Patil; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Net-Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs) have emerged as a result of rapid advancements in the construction industry and the growing demand forsustainable buildings. However, this progress has led to a potential gap in information dissemination between policy makers and buildingprofessionals. READ MORE

  3. 7. Predicting room occupancy based on carbon dioxide concentration levels : And potential energy-saving use cases in HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) control systems.

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Elias Eliasson Schuhmacher; Markus Ledung; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to explore the possibilities of recording room occupancy based on measured CO2 (carbon dioxide) concentration levels, and potential energy-saving uses in HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) - control systems. Furthermore, this thesis specifically aims to use unsupervised machine learning methods, which removes the need for generating correct occupancy labels and training the models before deploying them.

  6. 10. ROOFTOP GREENHOUSES: Comparison between Farm builder and IDA ICE energy simulation software

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

    Author : Jean Claude Cyubahiro; [2023]
    Keywords : Rooftop greenhouses; Farm builder; IDA ICE; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Rapid global urbanization is a major concern for the food production system, as it is recognized that relying on conventional methods of distant large-scale farming contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. One of the key strategies to address this challenge is rooftop greenhouses (RTG), which are greenhouses built on unoccupied rooftops. READ MORE
