“…Increased airtightness of buildings has a chain effect on the amount of pollutants in the building and human health ( Figure 2). Due to the wide variety of pollutants, pollutant monitoring technologies should play significant role in the very near future as the technologies of lower cost sensors evolve fast [19][20][21]. to the space, but also on the position of air inlets and outlets devices, and air supply pattern or air supply velocity ( [18].…”

Inevitably, the 21st century has initiated a series of developments in the construction industry, leading to its digitalization and resulting in a series of innovative approaches and practices. At the same time, the construction industry, being one of the main global environment polluters, should fulfil well-established, as well as novel, sustainability requirements in order to evolve in harmony with the rising concerns on the availability of natural resources. This overview study aims to present the main developments, research, and scientific challenges in the field of sustainable construction, emphasizing the field of energy. The study aims to present a state-of-the-art scientific discussion on the sustainable built environment topic by analyzing cutting edge topics in the fields of building elements and whole building energy assessment, of indoor air quality and low carbon buildings, as well as on sustainable energy systems and smart buildings. The study also presents the state-of-the-art in existing tools which are adopted for the assessment of the sustainable built environment, including the use of digital tools and building information modelling for the energy assessment of the built environment, as well as the application of Life Cycle Assessment on building-related processes. Cross cutting issues related to the analysis of the building sector in the Industry 4.0 era, such as sustainability management topics and environmental geomatics are also discussed. The study concludes in those fields which will be of interest of the scientific community in the following years, towards achieving the goals of the sustainable development of the building sector.

“…A climate chamber replicates the frame temperature. The use of a climate chamber is adopted in a number of studies that focus on the validation of physical models [69], [70]. Finally, the model-estimated values of selected performance parameters has been compared to the experimentally measured ones.…”

European legislation on building performance and energy efficiency pushes the shift towards minimizing the environmental footprint of buildings. Buildingintegrated photovoltaics (BIPV) is a promising technology that can accelerate the transition to energy-neutral buildings. Quantifying the potential of BIPV is crucial and one means of obtaining those results is through simulation. The state-of-the-art tools offer either thermal or electrical specialization; in particular, balance of system components (BOS) such as power converters have not been studied in detail within the building simulations BIPV domain. In this paper, a multi-physics model of a BIPV integrated DC/DC converter is developed in the Modelica language, taking into account the thermal and electrical couplings inherent to power electronic systems. The model has been validated using representative outdoor BIPV measurements and a DC/DC converter prototype. It has been found that the proposed model provides reasonable accuracy and outperforms an equivalent power conditioning model in TRNSYS. To demonstrate the model's functionality, two case studies are performed. First, the temperature-dependence of the converter's efficiency and losses is quantified and analyzed and, second, the prominent contributors to the converter losses are identified and discussed.

“…Lee et al proposed a method to measure the indoor mean radiant temperature by using a pan-tilt camera to detect the interior surface temperatures [ 34 ]. Fokaides et al used infrared camera to measure the indoor air temperature by placing mock target material interior the test room [ 35 , 36 ]. They experimentally proofed that the surface temperature of the mock target can present indoor air temperature when thermal equilibrium is reached.…”
