Prerequisites
General Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for this course.
Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will have:
• full knowledge of the basic laws - principles governing heat flow between buildings and their environment, which are the basic prerequisites for for understanding the process of calculating the energy requirements of the building,
• become familiar with the "Design Builder" simulation software for the energy demand of the buildings and "ENVI-met" simulation software for outdoor spaces,
• good knowledge of the energy/environmental performance assessment methodology(ies) of buildings,
• good knowledge of the environmental response assessment methodology(ies) of outdoor spaces.
General Competences
- Apply knowledge in practice
- Retrieve, analyse and synthesise data and information, with the use of necessary technologies
- Adapt to new situations
- Make decisions
- Work in teams
- Work in an interdisciplinary team
- Generate new research ideas
- Design and manage projects
- Respect natural environment
- Be critical and self-critical
- Advance free, creative and causative thinking
Course Content (Syllabus)
Environmental Technology II analyzes and examines:
• the scientific tools for the simulation and environmental assessment of outdoor spaces and building envelopes,
• the qualitative environmentalassessment of the relationship between the building and its surrounding built and natural environment (assessment of the sun/shading conditions of the building from surrounding buildings and/or natural elements and vegetation (trees),
• the methods and technologies for utilizing renewable energy sources, environmental management and environmental control systems at all scales/stages of the architectural project design - lifecycle,
• the activities and measurement methodologies and hardware of the Architectural Technology Laboratory, of the School of Architecture, AUTh,
• the aquaintance with the "Design Builder" simulation software for building envelopes and with the "ENVI-met" simulation software for outdoor spaces,
• the familiarization with the calculation and evaluation proccess of the thermal confort conditions in the buildingw and in open air areas.

Student Assessment
Description
Students are evaluated through exercises, which are supervised during the course and delivered at the end of the semester. During the course of “Environmental Technology I” students deliver a research project, using a simulation tool, which has as its object the computational analysis - management of a part and/or the whole of the design proposal developed within the Program Studios.
Student Assessment methods
- Written Assignment (Formative, Summative)
