Space heating and cooling energy demand in energy efficient single-family house with mechanical ventilation system
This paper investigates on the space heating and cooling energy demand as well as on the thermal comfort in energy efficient detached single-family houses with mechanical ventilation heat recovery system. The necessary energy calculations are based on a test reference year with one-hour-step weather...
