      Use of solar cells (PV) and solar collectors are key remedies in buildings where a large part of the energy supply should be based on renewable energy. The aim of this work has been to evaluate calculated and measured solar ...

    • Energy Upgrading of Basement ExteriorWalls: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly 

      Skaar, Christofer; Gaarder, Jørn Emil; Bunkholt, Nora Schjøth; Sletnes, Malin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Most of today’s buildings will still be in use in 2050 and upgrades should therefore contribute to reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint. This paper addresses a challenge for upgrading of basement exterior walls ...

    • Er utvendig nedløp fra kompakte tak mulig? 

      Andenæs, Erlend; Skagseth, Vegard Andre; Bunkholt, Nora Schjøth (Journal article, 2020)
      Klimaendringer gir i Norge en økt mengde regn, som i urbane områder kan gi økt press på overvannssystemer. Derfor stilles det stadig oftere krav til å avlaste overvannsnettet ved å lede avrenning fra tak ut på terreng i ...

    • Experiences with external drainage systems from compact roofs in Norwegian climates 

      Andenæs, Erlend; Skagseth, Vegard Andre; Bunkholt, Nora Schjøth; Kvande, Tore; Lohne, Jardar (Peer reviewed; Conference object; Journal article, 2020)
      To reduce loads on urban drainage systems and facilitate local infiltration of stormwater, it is desired to lead runoff water from roofs through external drains and into the local soil. However, in cold climates, situations ...

    • Experimental Study of Thermal Buoyancy in the Cavity of Ventilated Roofs 

      Bunkholt, Nora Schjøth; Säwén, Toivo; Stockhaus, Martina; Kvande, Tore; Gullbrekken, Lars; Wahlgren, Paula; Lohne, Jardar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Pitched wooden roofs are ventilated through an air cavity beneath the roofing in order to remove heat and moisture from the roof construction. The ventilation is driven by wind pressure and thermal buoyancy. This paper ...

    • Factors Affecting the Fire Safety Design of Photovoltaic Installations Under Performance-Based Regulations in Norway 

      Olsø, Brynhild Garberg; Stølen, Reidar; Mikalsen, Ragni Fjellgaard; Bunkholt, Nora Schjøth; Friquin, Kathinka Leikanger; Hjertnes, Jostein Karlsen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The impact of Photovoltaic (PV) installations on the fire safety of buildings must be considered in all building projects where such energy systems are established. The holistic fire safety of the building largely depends ...
