Research and Development to Support an Ultra-Energy-Efficient Residential Building Stock in Ontario

加拿大的需求是利用超绝缘建筑围护结构（SIBE）技术（即墙壁、屋顶、楼板、门窗）来设计和建造超节能（UEE）房屋，从而显著降低运营能耗。提出的研究问题是，目前的建筑围护结构组件设计不能直接过渡到超绝缘建筑围护结构设计。当当前设计被用作SIBE设计的框架时，许多案例突出了有害的影响（例如模具变质）。拟议的项目将进行分析研究，利用实验室和现场实验来量化成功标准，以填补传统建筑围护结构设计理念与SIBEs之间的知识差距，以支持UEE住宅标准市场的发展。*****工作性质****拟议的研究将根据定量研究支持的性能标准，为加拿大特定气候的SIBE技术提出建议。将制定与sibe绩效直接相关的成功标准，作为支持结果分析的分析支柱。该研究将通过实验室和现场全尺寸实验进行测试和分析。将使用实验验证的仿真模型生成额外的性能数据。这项工作的结果支持SIBEs的发展、适应和建设，以支持加拿大各地的UEE住房存量。*****为什么这项研究很重要****住宅能源使用占加拿大能源使用的很大一部分（大约15%）。为了减少加拿大的能源消耗，加拿大人需要通过使用健康、耐用、节能和经过验证的sibe来设计和建造UEE建筑。这项拟议的研究很重要，因为它直接支持了建筑和社区规模上能源效率的显著提高。为了减少高水平的能源使用，需要耐用和可建造的sibe。*****研究对谁重要****研究对公众、工业界和学术界都很重要。公众将从可用的SIBE组件的开发中受益。工业将从可持续材料、建筑和可再生能源等绿色经济部门的直接市场增长中受益。学术界将受益于前沿研究，提供与SIBEs相关的具体结果和未来研究，以发展研究领域。*****预期结果****-将公布实测数据，以支持对超节能房屋日益增长的需求，同时采用确保持久、可持续建筑存量的策略。*将公布制定分层目标系统的结果，并公布加拿大SIBE组件设计和建造的指导方针。*将对管理规范和标准提出具体建议，将重点放在SIBE系统上。这些数据将与支持高效能源输送系统以及可再生能源和生物能源系统的数据相结合。*-本项目的建筑围护结构和系统研究成果将辅以对建筑和制造部门采用建议的超节能策略的能力的批判性分析。*****研究领域和加拿大将如何受益****拟议的项目将通过量化sibe的性能来减少加拿大能源生产和使用对环境的影响，以支持全国各地的UEE房屋的设计和建造。由此产生的能源削减目标将直接使加拿大能够在2020年之前实现温室气体减排，仅在短期内就可能带来超过15亿美元的收入。

The demand exists in Canada to utilize super-insulated building envelope (SIBE) technology (i.e. walls, roofs, slabs, windows and doors) to design and construct ultra-energy-efficient (UEE) houses that significantly reduce operational energy. The proposed research problem is that current designs of building envelope assemblies do not directly transfer to super-insulated building envelope designs. Numerous cases highlight deleterious effects (e.g. mould deterioration) when current design has been used as a framework for SIBE design. The proposed project will conduct analytical research to quantify success criteria utilizing laboratory and field experiments to fill the knowledge gap between traditional building envelope design philosophy and that of SIBEs to support the development of a standard market of UEE residential dwellings.*****Nature of the Work****The proposed research will develop recommendations for Canadian climate specific SIBE technologies using performance criteria backed by quantitative research. Success criteria directly related to the performance of SIBEs will be developed as the analytical back-bone to support results analysis. The research will be tested and analyzed through laboratory and in-situ full-scale experimentation. Additional performance data will be generated using experimentally validated simulation models. Results from this work support the development, adaptation and construction of SIBEs to support and UEE housing stock across Canada.*****Why is the Research Important****Residential dwelling energy use accounts for a significant amount of Canada's energy use (approximately 15%). In an effort to reduce Canada's energy consumption, Canadians require the means to design and construct UEE buildings through utilizing SIBEs that are healthy, durable, energy efficient and proven. The proposed research is important because it directly supports significant energy efficiency increases at both the building and community scale. In order to reduce the high level energy use, durable and constructible SIBEs are required.*****To Whom is the Research Important****The research is important to the general public, industry and academia. The general public will benefit from development of useable SIBE assemblies. Industry will benefit from direct market growth in green economy sectors such as sustainable materials, construction and renewables. Academia will benefit from leading edge research providing concrete results related to SIBEs and future research to grow the field of study.*****Anticipated Outcomes****-Measured data will be published to support the increasing demand of ultra-energy-efficient houses while using strategies that ensure a durable, sustainable building stock. *-Results to develop a tiered target system and publish guidelines for design and construction of SIBE assemblies in Canada will be published. *-Specific recommendations will be made to governing codes and standards to focus sections on SIBE systems. This data will be coupled with data to support highly efficient energy delivery systems and renewable and bio-energy systems. *-The building envelope and systems research output from this project will be complimented by critical analysis of the construction and manufacturing sectors capacity to adopt the proposed ultra-energy-efficient strategies. *****How the Research Field and Canada Will Benefit****The proposed project will reduce Canada's environmental impacts of energy production and use through quantifying performance of SIBEs to support the design and construction of UEE homes throughout the nation. The resulting target energy reductions will directly enable Canada to achieve their GHG emission reductions by 2020 and could result in over $1.5 billion in the near term alone.
