Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesTHE IMPROVEMENT OF THE COMPUTATIONAL PERFORMANCE OF THE ZONAL MODEL POMA USING PARALLEL TECHNIQUESYao Yu, Ahmed Cherif Megri, Kenneth M. Flurchick, Dukka Bahadur K.C.The zonal modeling approach is a new simplified computational method used to predict temperature distribution, energy in multi-zone building and indoor airflow thermal behaviors of building. Although this approach is known to use less computer resource than CFD models, the computational time is still an issue especially when buildings are characterized by complicated geometry and indoor layout of furnishings. Therefore, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2014 · 7,736 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesLOW-COST STRATEGIES TO SAVE ENERGY IN K-12 SCHOOLSNabil Nassif, Raymond C. Tesiero III, Harmohindar Singh, K. M. FlurchickAdvanced Energy Management Control Systems (EMCS) offer an excellent means of reducing energy consumption in Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems while maintaining and improving indoor environmental conditions. This can be achieved through the use of computational intelligence and optimization with a building automation system and multiple sensors, which can be quite expensive. However, energy awareness and proper scheduling … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 17 Mar 2014 · 8,164 accessesView PDF Cite
