Thermal and energy analysis of a green roof installed on a school building

Research Topic
Abstract

This internship proposal seeks a suitable candidate to appraise the thermal and energy performances of a green roof installed on a school building. In particular, the candidate will analyse the experimental data collected since the green roof installation and will create a detailed model in TRNSYS for the optimization of the main design paramaters (e.g., soil nature and depth, irrigation patterns, thermal insulation thickness, etc.)
