After completing this course, the student has achieved the following learning outcomes, defined as knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student has in-depth knowledge of

• official requirements, regulations, rules and industry standards for indoor climate and energy use
• the relationship between building and indoor climate, heat loss, solar radiation and heat gain
• basic principles for physical and mathematical modelling in indoor climate and energy simulation Tools
• factors of uncertainty in simulation of indoor climate and energy consumption in buildings
• what can and cannot be simulated in various tools for indoor climate and energy demand predictions
• profitable energy efficiency measures which does not compromise indoor climate (in Norwegian referred to as "ENergiØKonomisering" or "ENØK")
• calculation of building energy demand using NS3031
• thermal, atmospheric, acoustic, actinic and mechanical environment in buildings
• optimal state of thermal comfort in buildings depending on metabolism and clothing
• the importance of, and measures to control air humidity
• environmentally sound building materials, considering indoor climate, energy use and CO2 emissions in a life cycle perspective
• the importance of cleanliness during the construction period the relationship between indoor climate, diseases and Health

Skills

The student is capable of

• carrying out independent work on modelling of buildings on such factors as optimum indoor climate, power and energy demand, using the SIMIEN tool or equivalent
• analysing the quality of indoor climate and energy consumption in a building, considering current laws and regulations, using both measurements and simulations
• analysing the profitability of indoor climate and energy saving measures in buildings
• assessing assumptions and calculating probable real energy use in buildings
• analysing data on indoor climate and energy consumption during the operation phase of buildings, e.g. ET curves
• analysing the thermal environment in terms of metabolism, radiation temperatures, air temperature, operative temperature, clothing and Activity
• choosing suitable materials to achieve the intended indoor climate quality and environmental impact

General competence

The student is capable of

• calculating and analysing the energy consumption of buildings
• determining which methods are most appropriate for conducting indoor climate or energy analyses
• applying their knowledge and skills to evaluate and choose the right tools for the problem
• planning and performing indoor climate analyses in buildings and provide relevant advice on indoor climate

Lectures, calculation exercises, laboratory exercises and project work

Vurderingsformen er en skriftlig, individuell firetimers skoleeksamen.

Kandidater som ikke består ordinær eksamen, kan framstille seg til ny/utsatt eksamen (jf. Forskrift om studier og eksamen ved OsloMet - storbyuniversitetet).

The following required coursework must be approved before a student can take the exam:

• Five milestone meetings for the project, in plenary or in groups.
• One laboratory group exercise, subsequent reporting of approx. five to ten pages. Laboratory time approx. two hours.

Part 1 Individual written exam of three hours, which counts 70 percent.

Part 2 Project in groups of two to four students, which counts 30 percent. Both report and work process will be assessed.

Exam part 1) Exam results can be appealed. Exam part 2) Project result cannot be appealed.

Both parts of the examination must be graded pass/E or better in order to pass the course.

In case of a new and postponed individual written examination, an oral examination form may be applied. If an oral examination is applied for a new and postponed examination, this cannot be appealed.

Exam part 1) Support materials attached to the examination paper. Handheld calculator that does not communicate wirelessly. If the calculator has internal memory, the memory must be empty before the exam. Random controls may occur.

Exam Part 2): Any support materials.
