Learning objectives
The student should acquire basic knowledge of building energy efficiency.
Learning outcomes
Students will acquire the necessary knowledge in various areas related to energy efficiency in building construction and will be trained to conduct techno-economic assessments and propose necessary measures to address issues of efficient energy use in construction. They will also be capable of using hardware and software technologies in the analysis of building energy efficiency.
Content
The concept and principles of energy-efficient construction. Low-energy and passive standards, experiences of the EU and neighboring countries. Heat transfer. Diffusion and condensation of water vapor. Building lighting. Comfort and energy efficiency parameters of the building envelope. Energy balance of a building. Energy audits and certification of buildings. Energy efficiency measures in construction. Examples of successful practices worldwide and in the region. Software packages.
Teaching Methods
Lectures, auditory exercises, consultations, tasks and seminar work, written and oral exam.
