Buildings are responsible for almost forty percent of global energy. Due to their high consumption of energy, buildings are on the front line of sustainability researches. In Turkey, six million out of twenty-two million buildings need to be demolished and rebuilt to meet seismic standards. These buildings are also far below the standards in terms of energy efficiency. Therefore, urban transformation can be thought of as a great opportunity for energy efficiency. This study investigates four things: (i) the energy-efficient urban transformation strategy in Gaziosmanpaşa-Istanbul region, which is selected as a case study; (ii) the effect of energy efficiency in this market; (iii) the adequacy of energy standards of Turkey; and (iv) contribution of digitalization in construction to sustainability with Building Information Modelling (BIM) and energy analysis. According to the energy efficiency scenarios, energy analyses were carried out on the BIM model. The most cost-effective strategy was determined with the Life Cycle Cost method. When compared with the current situation, it is possible to save energy up to 227 GWh a year, which is equal to the annual heating energy demand of approximately 30,000 housing, in the case study area with the most efficient scenario to be realized.

Life Cycle Assessment with BIM Towards Sustainable Energy Policy-Making: The Case of Urban Transformation in Istanbul Yayla, Alperen; Kayalica, Mehmet Özgür (2021-10-01) Buildings are responsible for almost forty percent of global energy. Due to their high consumption of energy, buildings are on the front line of sustainability researches. In Turkey, six million out of twenty-two million buildings need to be demolished and rebuilt to meet seismic standards. These buildings are also far below the standards in terms of energy efficiency.

Arayüz Dönüşümü: Gelecekteki İnsan-Bina Etkileşimleri Topak, Fatih; Pekeriçli, Mehmet Koray (2021-01-01) Binalar, dünyadaki toplam enerji kullanımının yaklaşık %40'ından sorumludur ve bu oran, araştırmacıları yapı sistemlerinin işletilmesi ve kullanılması için yeni yollar üzerinde çalışmaya iten ciddi çevresel kaygılara yol açmaktadır. Akıllı binaların birçok yenilikçi özelliğe sahip son teknoloji ürünleriyle donatılı olacağı değerlendirildiğinde, akıllı binaların insanlarla arasındaki etkileşimlerin geleneksel binalardan farklı olacağı öngörülmektedir. Uzun yıllar boyunca, basit mantık ve fiziksel ara yüzleri...
Sustainable impact evaluation of energy retrofits for school buildings in different climate regions Uluçay, Jülide Arzu; Pekeriçli, Mehmet Koray; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2019) Due to increasing importance of the concepts of energy efficiency and sustainability, retrofits for a large portion of existing buildings have become an immediate necessity. In this respect, different retrofit strategies are employed for increasing the efficiency of existing building envelopes, energy sources, electrical and mechanical systems. Among the existing building types for efficiency retrofit are the school buildings, which differ from the rest due to their special function - education. The activit...
Energy performance of duble-skin fa̧acades in intelligent office buildings : a case study in Germany Bayram, Ayça; Elias Özkan, Soofia Tahira; Department of Architecture (2003) The building industry makes up a considerable fraction of world̕s energy consumption. The adverse effects of a growing energy demand such as depletion in fossil fuel reserves and natural resources hassled the building industry to a search for new technologies that result in less energy consumption together with the maximum utilization of natural resources. Energy- and ecology-conscious European countries incorporated the well-being of occupants while conducting research on innovative technologies. In view o...
Fluid-CO2 injection impact in a geothermal reservoir: Evaluation with 3-D reactive transport modeling AKIN, TAYLAN; Baser, Ali; Saracoglu, Onder; Akın, Serhat (2022-01-01) Geothermal energy is commonly recognized as an environmentally friendly source of energy. However, geothermal fluids have unusually high CO2 content, particularly, in carbonated geothermal reservoirs. An efficient method to mitigate the CO2 emissions of geothermal power plants is to re-inject the captured CO2 with the effluent fluid to mineralize mainly into calcite under reservoir conditions (e.g., reservoir temperatures ranging from 200 to 220 degrees C). One of the major concerns about the re-injection o...
