“…Note that, during its life cycle, the pilot bioclimatic house would allow a significant reduction of the environmental impacts of CO 2 emissions, in particular, the global warming potential and exhaustion of the abiotic resources. Boukli Hacene and Chabane Sari 40 make a comparison between the environmental impact of an ecological and conventional house in the city of Tlemcen (in the north western Algeria). Their results show that the conventional house has a specific emission amount of 8.75 that is seven times greater than the ecological house for natural gas and electricity, respectively.…”

“…However, we can state that our results remain consistent with those of Boukli Hacene and Chabane Sari. 40 Finally, the difference between a pilot bioclimatic house with and without SHS is due to the appropriate choice of heating system. Indeed, the SHS is a passive system that can heat the entire house, emit a homogeneous temperature in the house, and heat the sanitary water tank of the house while using a clean, and free energy, which is the solar energy.…”

Bioclimatic architecture strategies and solar active systems contribute strongly to the reduction of building energy demand and achieving thermal comfort for its occupants over the whole year. This paper deals with the study of the energy performance improvement of a pilot bioclimatic house located in Algiers (Algeria). First, a series of experimental measures are conducted during cold period to show the effect of passive and active solar gains on the improvement of the indoor air temperature of the house. Then, a dynamic model of a solar heating system coupled with a bioclimatic house has been developed using TRNSYS software and validated with experimental data. The validated model has been used to establish the energy balance of the pilot bioclimatic house without solar heating system and to compare them to those of a conventional house. Finally, the improvement of the energy balance of the pilot bioclimatic house has been done by passive and active ways. The passive one includes the increase of south facing windows size and the use of night cooling with the use of shading device in summer. The active one consists of the integration of a solar heating system. Furthermore, an environmental study has been performed. The experimental results show that the energy requirements of a pilot bioclimatic house are very low which is suitable for the use of solar heating system in building. The simulation results show that the application of bioclimatic strategies is a better way to provide thermal comfort in summer and decrease the space heating energy demand of the house with 48.70%. The active solar system will cover 67.74% of the energy demand for heating of the house. These energy savings generate a significant reduction in CO2 emissions. Practical application: This work will enable engineers and designers of modern buildings of buildings in a Mediterranean climate to improve building energy efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions by a conjunction of different passive heating and cooling techniques such as insulation, thermal mass, window shades, night ventilation, and the solar heating system. The paper provides designers an effective strategy in terms of energy savings and indoor thermal comfort while reducing CO2 emissions.

La dernière catastrophe mondiale générée par le Tsunami au Japon, n’est que le résultat d’une politique basée sur le sur-enrichissement des gouvernements tout en négligeant les effets néfastes liés à l’utilisation de l’énergie nucléaire. Le nouveau domaine donc à investir, est le marché des énergies renouvelables. Les gouvernants des grandes puissances semblent prendre les devants en spoliant les pays les plus faibles. Une sélection naturelle semble s’amorcer, le plus fort se développant au détriment du plus faible, le plus polluant au détriment des moins développés. Les pauvres continuent à monnayer le permis de polluer. Changer de mode de vie, rationaliser l’utilisation de l’énergie, gérer l’énergie, responsabiliser les populations sont autant de pratiques que les agences gouvernementales relaient dans le monde. Dans cet article, nous essaierons d’interpréter notre politique qui tien compte de tous les enjeux précités, et les défit a prendre en vue d’entrer graduellement dans l’ère de la pluralité énergétique, et du développement durable, surtout dans le domaine de l’habitat.

The global energy context of the year 2018 makes us pessimistic about the future. The geopolitical, environmental and socio-economic aspects are linked to the political tensions of countries that hold and manipulate the global energy market. These countries are haunted by the population growth, the depletion of fossil resources and the global economic crisis. Each country is trying to find reasonable solutions to deal with this crisis. Unfortunately, these solutions always have direct negative repercussions on the population and on the environment. In this paper we present a case study developed in Algeria and inspired by the current and critical socio-economic situation of the country, in particular, the application of energy-saving techniques to an existing building. The investigation was conducted by using both simulation software and real interventions. We analyse some of the major components, such as building’s orientation and exposure to daylight which have significant impact on energy consumption. We present the concept of Building Performance Simulation Analysis, using Autodesk ECOTECT Analysis and COMSOL Multiphysics software, and give full consideration to various ecological energy-saving methods. Using our models, we present a possible solution for retrofitting a building to minimize its energy consumption. The results are useful for both building energy conversation and creating a comfortable living environment in future.
