Conversion of Existing College Building into Zero Energy Building

This dissertation details the process for converting an existing College Structure building into a Zero Energy Building (ZEB). Initially the overall Heat losses is determined for the Collage Structure. Subsequently the thermal Loads comprising Heating (Space Heating Domestic hot water and Heat losses) and the Cooling loads for the building are determined through appropriate equations for the seasonal months (Jan, Apr, Jul, Oct). In addition the electric loads of the building are calculated by the use of passive solar techniques which considers the solar gain through the windows, the thermal demand (Space Heating Load) of the building is reduced .To satisfy the thermal load demand through renewables, solar collectors are considered and a daily hourly simulation is performed to calculate the collector output following which the area of the collectors required for different fraction of the loads is determined. We are preparing estimation for cost of Civil Work and Electrical Work and plumbing work for renovation. We are also check the Feasibility of the Structure.
