Thermal Comfort and Renewable Energy for Low Energy Buildings

The course focuses on thermal comfort and heat production (to supply heating and domestic hot water systems) for low energy buildings. The subject covers solutions based on sustainable design including for example solar thermal collectors, air-to-water heat pumps, energy recovery heat exchangers in air handling units, etc. Students will participate mostly in active forms like laboratory, calculus and simple project. All practical exercises will be preceded by short lectures.
