Passive House model for quantitative and qualitative analyses and its intelligent system

The Passive House, along with models of its composite parts, has been developed globally. Simulation tools analyze its energy use, comfort, micro-climate, quality of life and esthetics as well as its technical, economic, legal/regulatory, educational and innovative aspects. Meanwhile the social, cultural, ethical, psychological, emotional, religious and ethnic aspects operating over the course of the existence of a Passive House are given minimal attention or are ignored entirely. However, all the aspects mentioned must be analyzed in an integrated manner during the time a Passive House is in existence. The authors of this article implemented this goal while they participated in two Intelligent Energy Europe programs, the NorthPass and the IDES-EDU projects. The Passive House model for quantitative and qualitative analyses and its intelligent system was developed during the time of these projects. The model and intelligent system are briefly described in this article, which ends with a case study.

► Authors developed and present original Passive House model and intelligent system (PHMIS). ► 4 original methods developed by the authors are used for PHMIS. ► As many as up to 100,000 alternative Passive House projects may be developed by applying PHMIS. ► PHMIS determining the utility degrees and market values of project rational alternatives. ► Authors presents a case study to demonstrate the effectiveness of the PHMIS.
