| Summary: | annual energy performance in residential buildings. A single by neglecting interactions that exist between the parameters. changes in annual energy of a parameter at different values characteristics such as area, conductance and shading on climates. The interactions were shown to have significant determined in this study using a two parameter analysis effect is used as a measure to determine the important two effects on predicted energy reductions in the six climates energy due to a change in an individual parameter. However interaction effect between the parameters. This interaction misconceptions about these effects (without regard to the of an associated parameter to determine the importance of the parameter analysis is used to quantify the effect on annual parameter changes in different orientations for six different predictions that overestimate or underestimate actual savings studied. technique. This technique uses the difference between The effect of interactions of two parameter changes is This thesis studies the effects of different window values of the other parameters of the window) lead to |
