Information exchange requirements for building walk-through energy audits

Number of experiments have been performed on various performance and emission characteristics, effect of biodiesel blends on lubricity and input and output energy distribution in diesel engine fuelled with biodiesel blends. It is also reviewed that energy audit is used in buildings, plants, process and equipments and energy audit method was developed for fishing vessels based on similar systems for land based industries. In land based businesses, industries and households, energy audits are presently used to investigate the use of energy and to identify opportunities for the efficiency improvement and effectiveness in the energy use. Energy audits have been used in various sectors, industries and utilities. This paper is a review paper of energy audit and it is found that there is a vast scope for implementation of standardized energy audit in diese engines fuelled with biodiesel blends. Its objective is to find out a standard energy audit method for diesel engine fuelled with biodiesel blends which evaluate the feasibility of biodiesel blend as fuel and also harmonise the research of biodiesel as fuel.

“…energetica dell'edificio allo stato attuale e che consenta quindi di stimare con attendibilità gli effetti delle possibili misure di efficientamento [7]. Allo stato attuale però ciò che viene richiesto dalle normative è ancora troppo limitato quantitativamente e qualitativamente per essere concretamente utilizzato nelle fasi di simulazione [8]. E questo è tanto più evidente quanto maggiormente approfondite sono le tecnologie con cui viene condotta la diagnosi.…”

“…The audit is aimed at developing a calibrated physical model (baseline) which represents the energy performance of the building at the current state and allows a reliable estimation of the effects of the possible efficiency measures [7]. Actually, what is required by the regulations is still too limited quantitatively and qualitatively to be concretely used in the simulation phases [8]. If the techniques that characterize the most refined diagnostic levels, such as simulation [9], are implemented, the amount of information requires digital management, as well as a close correlation with the geometrical and constructive data.…”

The new paradigm of smart building requires the accomplishment of occupants needs through the analysis of data gathered within the building, which switches from activities host to provider of customized services for occupants. The digitalization supports this new approach, as the implementation of Building Management Systems (BMS) in Building Information Modelling (BIM) environment allows to link the information collected to a database. The contribution is focused on a case study of the University of Cagliari, the Mandolesi Pavilion, and it is aimed at implementing and improving energy audit procedures by the use of Building Information Modelling.

Improving energy use in schools: from IEQ towards energy-efficient planning—method and in-field application to two case studies

Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) and energy conservation in schools are complex challenges. A significant part of the energy demand in these buildings addresses ventilation and temperature indoors. When confronted with money/energy constraints, the tendency of school boards is to cut on IEQ requirements, compromising the comfort of the occupants or worse, their health. Besides local energy production, either electrical or heating, major focus on Building Management Systems' (BMS) operation has been suggested, aiming at developing evidence-based energy conservation measures.Based on two field-studies, a joint approach of energy and IEQ auditing was developed, establishing a stateof-the-art of the current situation of the secondary schools in Portugal. The present study aims at enhancing energy efficiency in schools unveiling that it is possible to improve the HVAC systems' operation and optimize energy use and costs, while maintaining good environmental conditions. This paper also seeks to contribute to the implementation of Energy Efficiency Plans (EEP) in school buildings, presenting a comprehensive methodological approach on energy consumption in this typology of buildings, centered on the fundamental role of BMS and their proper programming. The obtained results show that there is a considerable potential for reducing energy consumption and improving energy usein one of the schools by simply adjusting the BMS operation schedule, a decrease between 20 -36 % of the useful thermal energy consumption is expected (14.1 -24.7 kWh/m 2 ); in other occasions, a significant IEQ improvement is expected due to longer HVAC running period.
