ARDOR Green optimizes passive design strategies for buildings, harnessing natural elements to enhance energy efficiency and occupant comfort:
Land Analysis and Solar Simulation: Conduct comprehensive land analysis and solar radiation simulations tailored to each project's orientation and configuration.
Thermal Comfort: Prioritize natural ventilation, solar orientation, and envelope design strategies to regulate indoor temperatures, minimizing reliance on heating and cooling systems.
Daylighting: Utilize façade simulations and calculations to maximize natural light penetration through strategic placement of windows, skylights, and light panels, reducing the need for artificial lighting.
Temperature Regulation: Manage temperature rise from solar radiation during peak hours using shading devices, ensuring comfortable indoor temperatures and reducing cooling demands.
Air Quality: Integrate passive ventilation techniques such as cross ventilation and stack effect to enhance air circulation, promoting healthier indoor environments with reduced indoor air pollutants.
Conceptual Design Stage: Conducts simple box simulations of multiple shell and shape options to provide preliminary energy consumption insights. This allows for cost and efficiency comparisons early in the project, integrating inputs from architecture, electrical engineering, and landscape design to align with project budget and sustainability goals.
Detailed Design and Construction Documents Stage: Performs detailed simulations that adhere to stringent standards like ASHRAE 90.1 or QCVN 09. This phase delivers a comprehensive report on building energy consumption, including detailed assessments of energy savings percentages. Recommendations cover shell construction details and specifications for energy-consuming systems such as HVAC, lighting, and pumps.
