Evaluation of Building Shell Performance in the Scope of an Innovative Design: Modular Hybrid Wall Example with Surface Heating Cooling System - istanbul

Abstract

Reducing the amount of building energy consumption with changing and transforming world is very important for energy conservation. Energy consumption by mechanical systems is predominant in building energy consumption. For this reason, it is recommended that the wall element should be arranged with a different system. In this way, the structural element and the mechanical system evaluation will be handled with a holistic approach. Evaluations will be made on an approach to integrate building shell performance of vertical building elements (wall) with an innovative design and system. In this study, it is aimed to determine the structure shell performance of radiant hybrid wall system for Istanbul province and to compare with alternative sections. In this way, a new approach will be determined and building shell performance will be evaluated. Performance criteria will be determined as heat loss, sound loss and building costs. As a result, the radiant hybrid wall system and different building shell sections will be compared with TOPSIS, which is the Multi Criteria Decision Making Method (MCDM) method, for Istanbul. For the results obtained from the calculations and methods, a section evaluation will be made which provides the most appropriate conditions.
