Effect of climate change on the energy performance and thermal comfort of high-rise residential buildings in cold climates by Mutasim Baba, Fuad

“…The simulation results show that for both bylaw and PH cases, the heating energy consumption would be reduced while cooling energy consumption would be increased. As a result, for the bylaw case, the total energy consumption would be decreased for two climate zones, while for PH case, the total energy consumption would be increased for zone 4 and decreased for zone 7. …”
