title = "Indoor environment and energy consumption pattern of an experimental house with energy efficient design",
abstract = "In order to clarify determine the energy consumption and the indoor environment of an experimental house with energy efficient design, measurements were taken since January 2006. The house is occupied twice a year, for a week each in summer and winter. Simulation was used to predict the energy consumption and indoor environment of the experimental house with a typical four-person family. The aim of this study is to understand the influence of energy efficient building design on energy consumption and indoor environment. The following conclusions are drawn from this investigation: (1) The fluctuation of indoor temperature was minimal, especially in winter when it is maintained at 20°C; (2) Energy consumption of the house was found to be 0.8 times the statistical value for the Tohoku district.",
