    Thermal, Daylight, and Energy Potential of Building-Integrated Photovoltaic (bipv) Systems: a Comprehensive Review of Effects and Developments
    (Elsevier, 2023) Taşer, Aybüke; Kundakçı Koyunbaba, Başak; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    According to energy consumption data of the European Union, buildings account for 40 % of overall energy consumption in all sectors. The rise in building energy demand seriously affects global warming. To reduce demand, buildings must be designed to be energy-efficient. As part of energy-efficiency initiatives, unique systems that employ renewable energy sources should be implemented in buildings. As a new technology, building-integrated photovoltaics is considered an essential technology to achieve this target. Several variables affect the thermal, daylight, and energy performance of building-integrated photovoltaic systems; related to environmental and photovoltaic-related parameters. Thus, the challenges and effects of these variables on the overall performance of these systems should be investigated. This research analyzes building-integrated photovoltaic implemented studies and presents a state-of-art review of recent developments. The study not only summarizes the existing studies developed in this field so far but also analyzes the variables and makes concrete generalizations and inferences. It enables finding gaps and deficiencies in the literature and provides a better understanding of all the variables that affect the performance of building-integrated photovoltaic systems by interpreting the results in detail and representing them graphically instead of only through textual analysis. Results show that building-integrated photovoltaics contribute to constructing a sustainable future for cities. Developments in this industry motivate researchers in this field, whose work will make it easier to cope with future ecological challenges. It helps to build a more sustainable future for society. With new developments, it will be possible to mitigate the effects of future environmental problems.

    Simulation-Based Retrofitting of an Educational Building in Terms of Optimum Shading Device and Energy Efficient Artificial Lighting Criteria
    (Znack Publishing House, 2016) Bayram, Göze; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The high level of daylight performance is crucial to increase academic and work performance of students and staff in educational buildings which are mostly used during the daytime. New design solutions have potential to reach optimum lighting conditions and minimum energy consumption. So, the purpose of this study is to evaluate and propose an energy efficient lighting design for an educational building. The aim is to find the optimum type of shading device with appropriate slat angles, transmittance of glazing, and the luminaire type/layout as well. Utilizing DIALux simulations, scenarios for combinations of these inputs are tested for classrooms, offices and a laboratory, which are non-identical due to their orientation, size, window characterization and facade organization. The procedure covers all significant days (winter/ summer solstice and equinoxes) during one year. Such an integrated approach would be proposed for lighting design and retrofit applications. © 2016, LLC Editorial of Journal “Light Technik”. All rights reserved.
