Bayesian Calibration for Office-Building Heating and Cooling Energy Prediction Model (2022)
Journal Article
Cui, Y., Zhu, Z., Zhao, X., Li, Z., & Qin, P. (2022). Bayesian Calibration for Office-Building Heating and Cooling Energy Prediction Model. Buildings, 12(7), Article 1052. https://doi.org/10.3390/buildings12071052

Conventional building energy models (BEM) for heating and cooling energy-consumption prediction without calibration are not accurate, and the commonly used manual calibration method requires the high expertise of modelers. Bayesian calibration (BC) i... Read More about Bayesian Calibration for Office-Building Heating and Cooling Energy Prediction Model.

A proof-of-concept study of a novel ventilation heat recovery vapour injection air source heat pump (2022)
Journal Article
Fan, Y., Li, J., Zhao, X., Myers, S., Cheng, Y., Yu, M., …Yu, S. (2022). A proof-of-concept study of a novel ventilation heat recovery vapour injection air source heat pump. Energy Conversion and Management, 256, Article 115404. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enconman.2022.115404

Conventional air source heat pumps suffer from frosting in winter and consume a large amount of electricity for defrosting. Meanwhile, ventilation heat recovery is an important approach to energy saving in buildings. This paper conducts a proof-of-co...
