The effects of building envelope parameters on energy performance for high-rise buildings in central Saudi Arabia
… use air conditioning extensively to overcome the heat and achieve thermal comfort. This research analyzed building envelope variables in an existing building in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and measured the effect on energy consumption and cooling loads based on ASHRAE 90.1-2019 and LEED guidelines. The …
