RICHARD Architecture sustainability energy performance passive conditioning passive heating passive cooling natural lighting daylighting passive ventilation renewable energy technology sustainbale technology The burning of fossil fuels to produce energy has degraded the environment and adversely affected human health. In order to control and prevent further environmental damage, it is necessary to reduce the fossil fuel consumption associated with energy generation. Architecture may play a large role in this. Architects can design buildings which consume less energy than conventional structures. This is the area of energy performance design. Energy performance design has long been known for heating, cooling, and lighting purposes but was pushed aside as fossil fuel costs decreased resulting in cheap energy sources. Only now are we discovering the impacts of our intense use of fossil fuels. Also, rising energy costs have once again made energy performance design an economically viable solution to our space conditioning needs. Carefully designing heating, cooling, and lighting systems to operate without the need for energy generated from fossil fuel sources can sufficiently lower the energy needs of a building. Even designing these systems based on fundamentals for their use can produce energy savings. Further analysis of using these systems will result in optimized energy performance and significantly reduce fossil fuel consumption as a result. 2005-07-14 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1114528772 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1114528772 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
