1.5.Taskdescription

Criterion functions were: minimum energy consumption for heating F1, minimuminvestmentcostsF2.Coolingwasnotanalyzed.Suchanalysistakesseveralhours[11].Theoptimization’sdecisivevariableswere:thethicknessofwallinsulation(thermalresistanceof the layer), the size of the glazing on all elevations, the ratio of the sides of the base.Fixedparameterswere:thermalresistanceonthegroundfloor,flatroof,buildingareaandventilationairstream.Theanalysis’subjectwasasingle-familybuilding;inparticular,thegroundfloor–fixedfloorareaof120m2.Theboundaryconditionslimitingtheinsulationwereequaltoabout10[m2K/W]<R<3.33[m2K/W].

1.6.Results

Table1describes the resultsof theSPBT[years]and table2describes the results fromKuhn-Tucker.Duetothelowthicknessoftheinsulation,theSPBTvalueliesbetween15and20cm.This is illustratedbyFig.1a.Thesolutionmethodofmulti-criteria thicknessof theinsulationisapprox.36cm.ThisisdepictedinFig.1b.Thedifferencebetweentheresultsofbothmethodsisalmost20cm(onemethodrecommendsinsulaiontwiceasthickastheother).
