Surrogate models can overcome the building performance simulation complexity and
replace time-consuming simulation engines within multi-objective optimization studies …

Coal-fired power generation boilers are susceptible to low combustion efficiency, pollutant
exceedance, and over-temperature tube burst during deep peak shaving due to load …

The shape and orientation of a building influence the energy demand, therefore optimal
decisions should only be made rigorously supported by energy evaluation programs, which …

Thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) are viewed as a promising demand-side resource
for smoothing out the intermittency of renewable energy. However, it is difficult to dispatch …

A solar combisystem is utilized to supply domestic hot water (DHW) and heat a residential
building. This system decreases the fossil fuel consumption and, hence, reduces air …

In this paper, the energy loss of the green building is optimized based on the thickness and
lay-up of the Nano-insulation. As different thicknesses and lay-up of the Nano-insulation …

In integrated steel works, the core objective of system energy conservation techniques is to
improve energy utilization and reduce energy costs. Currently, the research on energy …
