Summary

The quality of most buildings may be affected during the initial phase of architectural design. It is therefore important to optimize input parameters, which significantly influence energy efficiency. In principle it is possible to speak of a deterministic approach – which considers the input parameters to be fixed or a stochastic approach – which takes a wider set of input parameters into account. Some guidance is available for architects to help predict annual energy performance. These case studies have shown, that the building shape dramatically impacts energy loads for heating and cooling. In this paper a reference building is evaluated in terms of energy performance, where input parameters are changed in order to determine a correlation coefficient. Regression were written to express the impact architectural design has on needs for heating and cooling and to predict annual heating demand during the initial stage of building design. Scenario of hourly weather data according to IPCC is used to express the annual heating and cooling demand in future of evaluated single-storey houses.
