“…When designing natural ventilation systems, it is necessary to consider factors such as architectural and structural features of orthodox churches [9,10,11], the power of heating systems [12,13,14], heat generation from visitors and inhabitants, candles and church lamps [15]. The thermal and air humidity conditions of ancient time facilities could be the issue of saving the unique interiors and the whole constructions [1,3,5].…”

The paper devoted to indoor air quality providing in orthodox churches in Russia. Using the results of theoretical and experimental research made some practical recommendations for design and installation of ventilation systems in orthodox churches. Significant part of research deals with air and constructions humidity controls by reverse osmosis. It is reaffirmed that the rate of dehumidification is directly connected with the air exchange rates and operation of space heating devises in premises. It is very common to use natural ventilation in old churches. It is very easy to install and maintain, but still this way of indoor air conditions providing is absolutely not sustainable. And to avoid the leak of ventilation efficiency for different rooms it is recommended to provide mechanical supply and exhaust ventilation. Another significant issue for providing rapid wall dehumidification is properly operating space heating. It is noted that heating should be combined with an action of ventilation and electroosmotic drying.

The aim of the study is to analyse energy consumption for heating in set of the school buildings. Data analysis includes three data sets – predictions from energy performance certificates (EPC), measured data from heat meters and measured climate corrected data. Data sets were statistically checked and processed and represented graphically. The actual energy consumption differs from the one stated in the EPCs in all cases, which means that schools consume on average 15 % more energy than it is stated in the EPC. Overall, the data reveal that the actual energy consumption differs from the theoretical consumption, with all schools having higher actual consumption than the theoretical values. The differences in the data sets are discussed, and possible improvements are suggested taking into account strong relation between energy consumption and indoor air quality.

The development of energy-efficient technologies at all stages of a building’s life cycle is essential to achieving sustainable development goals. The object of the study is climate-adaptive façade structures with air gaps in the form of a Trombe wall and a double-skin façade. Cases using phase-change materials (PCM) and photovoltaic modules (PV) in climate-adaptive structures are analyzed separately. The research method is aimed to review and analyze the energy-saving potential from integrating the Trombe wall or double-skin façade in buildings. The work systematizes full-scale, physical, and mathematical experiments. Articles from Scopus and Web of Science systems from 2001 to 2022 inclusive were subject to consideration. The article presents a statistical analysis given by the scientific community on the current topic’s dynamics. The study’s significance is characterized by a lack of knowledge on the behavior of the mentioned façade systems in various climate zones and for different buildings types. The results have shown that comprehensive studies on the investigated systems are significant and can serve for further designs and energy efficiency improvements. For the first time, a scientometric analysis of articles on the topic “Climate-adaptive façades” was compiled.
