“…In this study, the thermal 3D model was generated in IDA ICE 4.8 dynamic energy and climate simulation program [11]. The boundary conditions have been set precisely due to actual condition of the building, before generating the thermal model [12], [13]. The materials specifications for instance the thermal conductivity (W/(m•K), density (kg/m 3 ) and specific heat J/(kg•K) were then assigned for the basement, external walls, internal walls and the roof.…”

Along with its rapid growth in economy, the protection of heritage buildings has recently gained importance and awareness in China. This paper investigates the energy performance of a heritage building (Wang's House) in Shanghai, as well as the thermal comfort of the users, using dynamic thermal simulations. The analysis showed that heating accounts as the highest energy demand, followed by cooling and lighting. The resulting study will help the authors to identify various sustainable strategies to improve users comfort as well as reduce the energy demand of heritage buildings in China.

“…The methodology begins with the analysis and evaluation of the energy efficiency and thermal comfort in five typical traditional houses, representing the decisive residential building typologies in Sabunkaran district, Sulaimani city. The five typologies were elaborated in a former study, preparing the following investigation (Chro, Istvan 2017). Based on the passive strategies orientation, thermal insulation, glazings, infiltration, shading, WWR and building body shape compactness (A/V-ratio) several scenarios were selected.…”

“…The orientation of the building to the sun is considered one of the earliest design decisions essential for passive heating and cooling, which plays a significant role in reducing energy consumption and increasing indoor environment (Chro, Istvan 2017). The certainty of the summer and winter sun's path, take the guess-work out of solar-appropriate design ((Hootman 2013).…”

The passive strategies are one of the most effective strategies for energy efficiency and thermal comfort performance either in newly constructed or in retrofitting existing buildings. The optimization is a process or methodology of making a system or decision as advantageous as possible, considering all relevant influencing factors. In the optimization process, a special decisionmaking tool should be properly set in order to cover the described configurations. This paper presents approaches to explore reducing energy consumption and increasing the thermal comfort in five typical residential buildings in Sulaimani city in Iraq, through investigating the optimization of different passive refurbishment strategies. The approaches are supported by simulation of different scenarios, applying computational techniques. In addition, an own developed decision support tool was proposed to assess and complete the optimization process. The most convenient passive strategies for optimization were summarized and the optimum models were proposed. The results revealed that improvement of energy efficiency and thermal comfort in the investigated buildings depends mostly on construction technique, materials used, and design of building body shape (A/V-ratio) and natural ventilation .

“…To contrast, the shapes of those nine types of yurts, the orientation of the yurts were set identical, and identical climate station weather data in a whole year period was applied [7]. The floor areas are set same, albeit volume, 'top' opening, and door dimensions are different, following the shape form of the yurt.…”

The yurt is one of the ancient living units for the nomadic cultural country. The yurt is a nomadic vernacular architecture, which has been developed for 3000 years. There are 31 counties using the yurt, out of which 13 of them use their traditional yurt around the world. Basically, the yurt was used as residential housings and today, also to some extent, for commercial and touristic purposes under different climates. Analyzing existing literature, as well as scientific publications it is apparent that besides architectural and structural topics, there is no existing investigation or published paper about building physics analysis of these buildings. Current research aims to create a database about energy and climate comfort qualities of traditional yurts using dynamic calculation tools. As a result, to intend to learn from the traditional yurt technology and to develop a completely new and modern building prototype based on the yurt-experiments in next step of research. Firstly, finding optimal solutions for a contemporary yurt-building' should be applied under Mongolian climate conditions, since this form of housing is still used in this country, and, in addition, the comfort and energy performance of the yurts were surprisingly satisfactory under extreme weather conditions, by temperature differences between summer and winter of approx. 80 K.
