Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

A major part of global energy consumption is that of buildings. Optimizing the building energy system, especially improving HVAC technology, is an important means to reduce energy consumption in homes and public buildings and address the global energy crisis. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for reporting the latest research progress in HVAC systems, exploring HVAC system design and evaluating the application of relevant theories and advanced technologies in building energy saving.

This Special Issue on “HVAC System Design for Building Energy Saving” invites high-quality and cutting-edge articles. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:

  • HVAC system analysis;
  • Simulation and optimization of HVAC systems;
  • Heat pump technology;
  • Dehumidification technology.
