Design Parameters for the Technical Optimization of Zeb Using Tarp

This paper focuses on the aspect of building design which inculcates a concept oriented systematic procedure and computer-based simulation. Apparently, the main intent is to utilize the optimization tools for performing tasks without exchanging the criterions like energy efficiency, energy demand, heating and cooling demands, total electricity consumption and the impact of environmental conditions. Through this study, we have made an approach to resolve the fore-coming challenges in construction of an optimized building. The method involves the combined use of Energy Plus associated with TARP optimization tool to design the interior and exterior of the building. For an instance, the anamnesis of a low utilization building located in GIET UNIVERSITY, Gunupur has been simulated and the results are validated successfully. To evaluate the annual energy consumption of the building, the comparison between initial and final parameters are carried out with the help of Energy Plus and optimization tools. Eventually, the optimal design emanated has extricated the building parameters such as comfort zones, discomfort zones, also the thermal analysis of various criterions of the optimization helped in laying a successful path to Zero Energy Building [ZEB].
