Seminar 09-1 -- Hot and Humid Schools and Housing: Occupancy Assumptions on Energy Performance Simulation PDF

This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker (recorded presentation), PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3) as noted.

This session assists the attendee to understand how occupancy affects energy performance in office buildings, schools and residences. Assumptions of determining occupancy are analyzed along with other factors, such as dew point, to determine accurate energy consumption models. Regression models are explored and compared for estimating energy consumption. Finally, a design guideline to reduce energy consumption is recommended for low-income, low-energy housing in hot and humid climates.
