shelters energy and thermal comfort performance.
Abstract of Publication:
Natural and man-made disasters are vital issues that led to the increasing number of migrants, many of them stayed
displaced for decades this requires more permanent dwellings. The main aim of the study is to investigate the impact of
the bottom-up construction method on developing migrant’s shelters energy and thermal comfort performance. Dynamic
simulation tool Indoor Climate and Energy (IDA ICE 4.8) has been used to assess nine different scenarios. The results
quantified that the annually delivered energy and thermal comfort accepted hours of proposed scenario nine (S9) is better
compared to base-case scenario one (S1) by 63% kWh and 4,215 h respectively. Methodologies and results of this paper
can be adopted and applied for various places of the world affected by migration issue.
