- Energy rehabilitation studies of a large group of historical buildings: a case studyPublication . Teixeira, A. Rego; Duarte, Rogério; Brotas, L.; Almeida, P.; Brandão, M. A.In this paper, energy rehabilitation studies of a large group of historical buildings are assessed. A general methodology and some particular constraints are discussed. For a case study including 65 buildings in one of Lisbon’s historical centres, the methodology used, the proposed energy-efficient measures and the results in terms of heating energy savings and summer thermal convert are presented and discussed.
- Glazing-related problems due to high temperatures in double skin façadesPublication . Duarte, Rogério; Leandro, S. Oliveira; Teixeira, A. Rego; Bigode, C.The thermal behaviour of a double skin façade building is modelled using the DOE-2 building energy simulation program. Maximum temperatures of glazed components of the double skin façade are determined to assess the occurrence of glazing-related problems, such as reduced thermal and aesthetic performance, increased maintenance costs and even injury hazards. The importance of detailed thermal modelling of double skin façades and of its glazed componentes is concluded.
