  1. 16. Evaluating the impacts of considering urban microclimate conditions on the accuracy of the Building Energy Simulation (BES) models

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

    Author : Keneth Rwezaula; [2021]
    Keywords : Urban microclimate conditions; Building energy simulations; standard weather files.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Following rapid urbanization and population growth in cities, many recent studies indicate the impacts of microclimate conditions on the energy performance of buildings. However, the methodologies and simulation tools used to evaluate the energy performance of buildings in urban settlements have overlooked the impacts of microclimatic conditions simply by the use of weather station data.
