Optimal configurations of high-rise buildings to maximize solar energy generation efficiency of building-integrated photovoltaic systems March 2019 Indoor and Built Environment 28(8):1420326X1983075
Due to high land cost in Hong Kong, majority of the residential buildings are developed into high-rise blocks over 20 storeys. The buildings usually adopt the central core design in which the lift core is located in the center to maximize the valuable peripheral areas for residential units.
By integrating solar generation and shading capabilities, BIPV kinetic façades deliver dual benefits, optimizing energy performance and reducing lifecycle costs, compared to traditional PV systems. Furthermore, effective daylighting strategies not only contribute to energy savings but also positively impact occupant productivity and comfort.
The building envelope of high-rise buildings in tropical regions is exposed to direct solar radiation and high external temperature, causing overheating within the building. Low rise buildings are comparatively less exposed because the roof of the low-rise buildings provides shading to a larger extent of the building. Therefore, it is
We investigate the feasibility to install daylighting system to enclosed lift lobbies in high rise residential buildings. Floor height restriction does not allow installation of light
These strategies can be applied and adapted to high-rise buildings by using direct solar gain, indirect solar gain, isolated solar gain, thermal storage mass and passive cooling systems.
We investigate the feasibility to install daylighting system to enclosed lift lobbies in high rise residential buildings. Floor height restriction does not allow installation of light pipes. We design a remote source solar lighting system composed offside-emitting fiber optic to solve the headroom problem. The annual performance of the system
High rise buildings are seemingly well-tuned to their climate; and they provide a major portion of their own energy requirements through integrated passive design, daylighting, and...
High-rise buildings can offer fitness centers, wellness rooms, and even outdoor jogging tracks to encourage a healthy lifestyle among occupants. High-Rise Buildings Require Thoughtful Planning, Innovation & Understanding. Creating
Batteries have been widely adopted for renewable energy storage in buildings given its fast response, high efficiency and low environmental impact [5], while hydrogen is attracting increasing attention in many economic sectors given its low-carbon characteristics.The lower heating value of hydrogen is about 120 MJ/kg (3 times of gasoline), which makes it an
The high-rise office building is adapted from ASHRAE90.1 commercial prototype buildings representing 80% of typical floor areas in U.S. Although EnergyPlus has been tested and validated by extensive theoretical and experimental studies [ 13, 27 ], the adapted baseline model is still benchmarked with the statistical energy use data from the Hong Kong government.
• This study reviews the recent literature about the solar passive strategies and active technologies in high-rise buildings. • It illustrates the effectiveness of benefiting solar energy. • It introduces solar energy as a substitute source of energy in high-rise buildings.

However, bringing daylight into deep plan high-rise buildings is not possible with simple windows or skylights, and light transport systems are necessary to bring natural light into the deep cores
For example, some homeowners may have restrictive homeowner association rules that prohibit rooftop panels; certain commercial buildings may have roof weight limitations that rule out rooftop solar panels;
This study demonstrates a parametric approach to optimize solar access for high-rise residential buildings in urban tropics. Using parametric modelling, 75 urban contexts were generated for three simulation models characterized as high-rise residential buildings located in an urban tropical climate.
Solar Considerations in High-rise Buildings. February 2015; striven for is to introduce solar energy as a permanent renewable source in order to reduce energy
Highlights • This study reviews the recent literature about the solar passive strategies and active technologies in high-rise buildings. • It illustrates the effectiveness of benefiting solar energy. • It introduces solar energy as a
This study evaluates the feasibility of integrating solar energy into high-rise commercial buildings by measuring its effectiveness in reducing building dependence on the energy grid and reducing GHG emissions.
Stories about the architecture of high-rise buildings including residential towers and office buildings below 150 metres tall.
The results show the best shapes for high-rise buildings are circle and square, to ensure the best BIPV system efficiency. The BIPV should be located on the roof and the ''U'' type podium building is the best shape for mounting the BIPV system to provide a good sunlight exposure no matter what the high-rise building shape is.
In commercial buildings, the annual energy consumption per square meter of the floor area is in excess of 200 kW h with airconditioning and lighting serving as the two most energy consuming end-use applications within a building. which
The International Energy Agency (IEA), Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and British Petroleum (BP) categorize world power consumption into industry, transport, agriculture, and buildings sectors [1], [2].The Working Group (III) of IPCC mentions that behind the industry the sector of building for the commercial, residential, and public
• This study reviews the recent literature about the solar passive strategies and active technologies in high-rise buildings. • It illustrates the effectiveness of benefiting solar
Abstract: With accelerating urbanization, lighting problems frequently appears for residents at lower levels of buildings. In order to solve the sunlight blocking problem between high buildings, a new solar optical guide lighting (SOGL) system is proposed in this study.
3. Pay Particular Attention to Solar Heat Gain Solar heat gain is a particular concern for mid- and high-rise buildings where shading is difficult to provide and some units may have their windows only in a single, unfavorable orientation. Building energy codes limit window solar heat gain coefficients (SHGC) in warmer climates. But even
This study giving a brief explanation about the high rise building in addition to sun light sources significance with environmental setups. We can use other resources meant for reflecting devices intended for satisfy the requirements of receiving nature light sources.
Highlights We investigate the feasibility to install daylighting system to enclosed lift lobbies in high rise residential buildings. Floor height restriction does not allow installation of light pipes. We design a remote source solar lighting system composed offside-emitting fiber optic to solve the headroom problem.
