Dynamic aggregated building electricity load modeling and simulation
( Elsevier B.V. , 2014 , Article)In order to support the growing interest in demand response modeling and analysis, there is a need for physical-based building load models. This work presents a new approach for simulating electrical power flow in buildings. ... -
Energy consumption and conservation practices in Qatar - A case study of a hotel building
( Elsevier , 2014 , Article)This paper considers energy conservation practices in Qatar with special emphasis on commercial buildings. Energy conservation approaches are classified into five main areas and an Energy Conservation Matrix (ECM) database ... -
Evaluation of thermal comfort and cooling performance of residential buildings in arid climates
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2013 , Conference Paper)In this paper, a parametric study on the thermal comfort and cooling performance of residential buildings is reported. The study was carried out in the hot arid climatic conditions of Qatar. The influence of diurnal variation ... -
Key performance indicators (KPIs) for evaluation of energy conservation in buildings
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2013 , Conference Paper)The main objectives of this paper are to: identify key performance indicators (KPIs) related to intelligent buildings (economical, environmental, reliability, and quality), and; propose a simulation framework for evaluation ... -
Performance evaluation of gas-power strategies for building energy conservation
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)The work provided herein involves a comparison of natural gas and hydrogen fuels for the purpose of energy conservation for buildings via alternative energy generation methodologies. A case study simulation was developed ... -
Risk based life cycle assessment conceptual framework for energy supply systems in large buildings
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)This paper proposes an environmental assessment framework that integrates the conventional life cycle assessment (LCA) with risk assessment for the purpose of evaluating energy conservation systems in buildings from ... -
System approach for building energy conservation
( Elsevier , 2014 , Conference Paper)Energy use in residential and commercial buildings and towers represents more than 30% of energy consumption. The increase in number of buildings and towers in most of the major cities worldwide led to several initiatives ...
