In this paper we propose an algorithm to find optimal design of skylight for a one-storey office building while saving source energy consumption. The algorithm simultaneously couples daylighting with energy performance and compares different ratios of skylight to floor area based on both lighting and HVAC loads. Our method integrates different simulation tools with numeric optimization and exhaustive...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction has obtained worldwide attention due to the global warming effects and the mitigating means such as carbon tax. Among the CO2 emission sources, construction and building related activities consume a considerable amount of energy and produce a significant volume of greenhouse gases (GHGs). This paper proposes an integrated simulation and optimization approach to reducing...
