The Professorship of Architecture and Building Systems (A/S) researches on active and passive systems for building climatization and energy supply, spanning from components to neighborhoods, from design to operation. The motivation and aim of research is to realize a CO2-neutral built environment that efficiently consumes and produces energy while providing high user comfort. The research is focused on efficient systems that operate in synthesis with architectural / urban design and construction, adaptive to the occupants and the exterior climatic conditions.
The methods used in this course were strongly based on modeling, simulation and data analytics. 3D models were used to experiment and evaluate novel concepts utilizing this real-world case study on both building and neighborhood/cluster scale. The fotos show radiation analysis with the ladybug plugin for rhino, as well as concept drawings concerning wind and cross ventilation cooling.
The active systems and photovoltaic systems integration is also further described in the PDF with the Semester Paper for the Integrated Discipline.
