Control of indoor environments in heritage buildings: experimental measurements in an old Italian museum and proposal of a methodology

Abstract

Following a previous work, concerning the energy audit of a nursery school belonging to the public building park of the town of Palermo, some further analyses have been conducted. These mainly refer to the environmental performances of the school that are assessed with regards to different interventions involving the envelope (the glazed part, particularly) and the surrounding spaces. The interventions are hierarchised by means of suitable indicators concerning energy, environment and economy issues. Finally a simple graph is proposed that visually summarises these indicators for each proposed action.
