  • Guidelines for the solar chimney application : as a passive single and Integrated strategy for heating and cooling residential buildings in Aley – western mid-mountain climatic zone of Lebanon 
    Saad Eddine, Nour (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2020)
    Solar Chimney (SC) is a passive design used to enhance natural ventilation and space conditioning in a building, limiting the energy requirement of the building to low operational costs. In Lebanon, high energy consumption of residential buildings is recorded mainly for heating and cooling, marking the highest consumption in the Western Mid Mountain (WMM) climatic zone. Thus, proposing the SC application for limiting this high thermal demand in residential buildings of the WMM zone for both heating and cooling would limit the total energy consumption. SC design has various types (Stand-alone SC ...
  • Impact of glazed balconies on the energy efficiency of residential buildings: the case of Coastal Region; Saida 
    Awad, Razan H. (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2020-05)
    This research project aims to study the effect of glazed balconies on energy consumed on cooling, balcony typologies, and adjacent spaces. The research focuses on the case of seafronts and specifically Saida’s coastal zone: “Corniche El Baher” area. Glazed balconies are a spontaneous chaotic trend that allows users to benefit from and occupy balcony spaces in all seasons. This trend has many impacts on the indoor thermal comfort and energy consumed in the glazed spaces. Drawing upon previous energy consumption research, particularly in the summer months in residential buildings in Lebanon and ...
