EnergyConsumption in Buildings • Buildingsaccount for 40% of total energyconsumption in theEuropeanunion • Whatabout Portugal? • In 2010 the final consumptionofservices + domestic sector represented 55% ofthe final energyconsumption • Do youthinkthatthefractionofprimaryenergywouldbehigherorlower? Why?
Energy Consumption in Buildings • Mosteffectivestrategy to reduceenergy use in buildings (Harvey, 2010): • Reduceheatingandcoolingloadsthrough a high-performance envelope • highdegreeofinsulation, windowswithlow U values in coldclimatesandlow solar heatgain in hot climates, externalshadingandlowairleakage • Meetthereducedload as much as possibleusingpassive solar heating, ventilationandcoolingtechniqueswhileoptimizingthe use ofdaylight • Use themostefficientmechanicalequipmentto meettheremainingloads • Ensure that individual energy-using devices are as efficient as possible and properly sized
Energy Consumption in Buildings • Howmuchenergyreduction can weachieve? • Passive house standard: heating 15kWh/m2 per yearcooling 15 kWh/m2 per yearTPE 120 kWh/m2 per yearn50 ≤ 0.6 / hour From 220 kWh/m2/year to 20-40 kWh/m2/year Triple-glazedwindowswithinternalvenetianblinds & mechanicalventilationwith 82% heatrecovery
Energy Consumption in Buildings • Howmuchdoes itcost?
Buildings – High Performance Envelope • Theeffectivenessofthethermal envelope dependsofinsulationlevels in thewalls, ceilingandbasement • Insulationlevelscontroltheheatflowbyconduction & convectionthroughthe exterior andthe interior • U value (W/m2/K), theheattrasnfercoefficient, isequal to theheatflow per unitareaand per degreeofinside to outsidetemperaturedifference • The U valueof a layerofinsulationdependsonitslengthandtypeof material

Buildings – High Performance Envelope • Theeffectivenessofthethermalenvelope dependsontheinsulationlevelsofwindows • Windows offersubstantiallylessresistance to thelossofheatthaninsulatedwalls • Single glazedwindowshave a typical U-valueof 5W/m2/K which can bereduced to to 2.5 and 1.65W/m2/K withdoubleand triple glazingbecauseoftheadditionallayersofair • The U-valueof 2.5W/m2/K ofdoubleglazedwindowscan bereducedto 2.4W/m2/K and2.3W/m2/K withArgonandkrypton • Doubleand triple glazingvaccumwindows can reducethe U value to 1.2 and0.2W/m2/K
Buildings – High Performance Envelope • Theeffectivenessofthethermalenvelope dependsonthegain/lossenergybyradiation • Windows permit solar energy to enterandlossofinfraredradiation • Lowemissivitycoatingsreflect more (reduce SHGC), i.e., reduceheatgains in summerandwinter • Lowemissivitycoatingscan reducelossofheatbyinfraredradiation • Thesolar heatgaincoefficient, SHGC, isthefractionof solar radiationinicidenton a windowthatpasses throughthewindow

RCCTE - Aims RCCTE – Aim • General aims: • Methodology for computingenergyperformaceofbuildings • Set minimumenergy performance standards • ImplementEnergyCertificationofbuildings • SpecificAims: • Limitation of annual energy needs for heating, cooling, domestic hot water and primary energy • Limitation of heat transfer coefficients • Limiting of solar factors • Installation of solar panels
RCCTE – DomainofApplication RCCTE – Domain of application • Buildingsthat RCCTE applies to:
RCCTE – Indoor & Outdoor Conditions RCCTE - Outdoor conditions Reference Indoor conditions • 20ºC in heating season • 25ºC and 50% relative humidity in the cooling season • Consumption of 40 liters of water at 60ºC/occupant . day Reference Outdoor conditions: • Portugal is divided in winter and summer climatic zones
RCCTE – Outdoor Conditions RCCTE - Outdoor conditions Reference Outdoor conditions:
RCCTE – Outdoor Conditions Climate • HeatingDegree-days are: • Where: • Tb is the desired indoor temperature (20ºC) • Tj is the temperature outside the hours j • The Degree-days are calculated for an entire year • For example, to Lisbon, for Tb = 20 º C, heating degree days are 1190 º C.day. Knowing the heating season is 6 months (180 days), the average daily GD (GDI) will be 6.6 º C.
RCCTE – Outdoor Conditions Climate • Outdoor projecttemperature • The outside project temperature is calculated on a cumulative probability of occurrence of 99%, 97.5%, 95% and 90%. • A cumulative probability of occurrence of 99% means that in summer the temperature indicated is exceeded only in probabilistic terms, 1% of the time, ie, 30 hours per year (e.g. Lisbon).
