Energy Efficient Buildings (Energieeffiziente Gebäude)

Bachelor - 5th semester - optional subject -  2 credits

 

Aims:

Aim is to impart the latest findings and technologies in the area of energy effiency in buildings, based on the basic subjects in the 1st and 4th semester. The students should recognize that a high "building performance" is the result of a integrated building and energy concept in which architectural measures shape the indoor climate and the building's thermal behavior substantially. The contents of the module energy efficient buildings include innovative measures for thermal protection of buildings, for passive solar energy and for ventilation technology. With foucs on  non-residential buildings also concepts and technologies for passive cooling and for (daylight) lighting are being dealt with. New methods for regenerative provision of heat and electrical energy point out the course towards emission-free energy concepts.

 

Cycle:

Each academic year, winter term.

 

Academic achievment and examination:

Lecture course and oral examination.
