FCIC: Elements Of An Energy Efficient House Designing and building an energyefficient home that conforms to the Your interest in energy efficiency and renewable energy is greatly appreciated. http://www.pueblo.gsa.gov/cic_text/housing/energy-eff/energy.html
Extractions: Return to Federal Citizen Information Center Home Page Designing and building an energy-efficient home that conforms to the many considerations faced by home builders can be a challenge. However, any house style can be made to require relatively minimal amounts of energy to heat and cool, and be comfortable and healthy. It's easier now to get your architect and builder to use improved designs and construction methods. Even though there are many different design options available, they all have several things in common: a high R-value, tightly sealed thermal envelope; controlled ventilation; and lower than usual heating and cooling bills. Some designs are more expensive to build than others, but none of them need to be extremely expensive to construct. Recent technological improvements in building elements and construction techniques, and heating, ventilation, and cooling systems, allow most modern energy saving ideas to be seamlessly integrated into any type of house design without sacrificing comfort, health, or aesthetics. The following is a discussion of the major elements of energy-efficient home design and construction systems. The EREC has other, more specific information on these topics available. The Thermal Envelope A "thermal envelope" is everything about the house that serves to shield the living space from the outdoors. It includes the wall and roof assemblies, insulation, windows, doors, finishes, weather-stripping, and air/vapor retarders. Specific items to consider in these areas are described below.
Energy Efficiency - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia For energy efficiency in relation to economics, see energy conservation. In physics and engineering, The energy efficiency of a process is defined as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_efficiency
Extractions: In physics and engineering , including mechanical and electrical engineering, energy efficiency is a dimensionless number, with a value between and . The energy efficiency of a process is defined as: where W is the amount of useful work done by the process (in joules ), and "energy" is the quantity of energy (again, in joules) used to run the process. An efficiency of 1 (100%) is impossible - the second law of thermodynamics prohibits it. Theoretically, the mutual annihilation of matter and antimatter would be completely efficient, but the collection of the released energy would not be.
