    • Analysis of Heat Charging and Discharging on the Phase Change Energy-Storage Composite Wallboard (PCECW) in Building 
      Yue, H.; Chen, C.; Liu, Y.; Guo, H. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
      This research paper combines the phase change material and the basal building material to constitute a kind of new phase change energy- storage composite wallboard (PCECW), applied in a residential building in Beijing. We ...
    • Application and Design of Residential Building Energy Saving in Cold Climates 
      Li, Z.; Li, D.; Mei, S.; Zhang, G.; Liu, J. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
      Climate is the one of main considerations for residential building design since the green and energy saving building has become the trend in the building industry. China is actively popularizing high energy-effective and ...
    • Design for Energy Efficiency in Residential Buildings 
      Song, M.; Zhang, Y.; Yang, G. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
      This paper presents the thermal design and heating design of an energy saving residential building in Beijing where the owners lived until 2004. Results show the advantages and disadvantages of a household-based heating ...
    • Discussion on Energy-Efficient Technology for the Reconstruction of Residential Buildings in Cold Areas 
      Zhao, J.; Wang, S.; Chen, H.; Shi, Y.; Li, D. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
      : Based on the existing residential buildings in cold areas, this paper takes the existing residential buildings in a certain district in Beijing to provide an analysis of the thermal characteristics of envelope and energy ...
    • Dynamic Simulation and Analysis of Heating Energy Consumption in a Residential Building 
      Liu, J.; Yang, M.; Zhao, X.; Zhu, N. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
      In winter, much of the building energy is used for heating in the north region of China. In this study, the heating energy consumption of a residential building in Tianjin during a heating period was simulated by using the ...
    • Experience on Commissioning of Heating/Cooling System and Thermal/Air Quality Environment 
      Hokoi, S.; Miura, H.; Huang, Y.; Nakahara, N.; Iwamae, A. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2004)
      This paper discusses how the commissioning process should be and the related problems, through a case study of a residential house. The items to be commissioned, measurement methods and the commissioning results are ...
    • Modeling of Residential Buildings and Heating Systems 
      Masy, G.; Lebrun, J. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2004)
      The aim of the paper is to illustrate the possibilities offered by modelassisted commissioning in residential buildings. Three examples are considered: two small detached houses and a large multi-storey dwelling building. A ...
    • Use of Renewable Energy in Buildings: Experiences With Solar Thermal Utilization 
      Wang, R.; Zhai, X. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2006)
      Solar energy is receiving much more attention in building energy systems in recent years. Solar thermal utilization should be based on the integration of solar collectors into buildings. The facades of buildings can be ...
