Climate Sensitive Design and Introduction on Building Energy Simulation
This course is a 1 day virtual training program which will give participants an insight into energy conscious architecture and green building design. The aim of this course is to equip participants with an understanding of concepts such as:
Climatic analysis, solar passive architecture, thermal and daylighting performance, etc.
Software tools such as eQuest, Climate Analysis Tool (CAT) and Climate Consultant will be used to apply these concepts.
Case studies of energy efficient, sustainable and certified buildings will be used to illustrate optimisation techniques.
"Sustainable Architecture is an Opportunity
to Design Better"
The course will be conducted by Ar. Jiten Prajapati
(B.Arch (Bombay), LM SESI, Griha CP. )
Co-author of Handbook on Energy Conscious Buildings
Architect of Education Park - A Zero Energy Campus
Climate Sensitive Design
This session will be on Climate Sensitive Design followed by the demonstration of Evaluation Tools - Climate Analysis Tool (CAT) and Climate Consultant.
Building Energy Simulation
Session 2 is a primer on Buiding Energy Simulation for achieving comfort and conserving energy.
The evaluation tools for thermal performance and daylighting of buildings using eQuest will be demonstrated alongwith hands-on exercises of using the same.
