| 051-0552-00L | Energy- and Climate Systems II  | 2 credits | 2G | A. Schlüter | |
| Abstract | Relevant basics of technical systems for a efficient and sustainable climatisation and maintenance of buildings are teached. Constitutively on EC1, the EC2 lectures focus on systems and concepts available to the architect for a sustainable design. Further, perspectives on urban energy systems are given. | ||||
| Learning objective | The aim of the lecture series are knowledge of sustainable design concepts and systems which ensure sustainable running of buildings. | ||||
| Content | 1. Modeling and Simulation 2. Electrical and IT systems 3. Integrated design 4. Water systems 5. Urban systems | ||||
| Lecture notes | The slides of the lecture serve as lecture notes and are available as download. | ||||
| 051-1220-16L | Integrated Discipline Building Systems (A. Schlüter)  | 3 credits | 2U | A. Schlüter | |
| Abstract | This part of the curriculum addresses design work in different areas of architecture and urbanism and integrates the knowledge acquired in previous years. It involves the active participation of specialists from related disciplines. In this case the focus lies on energy and exergy concepts and related technical infrastructure to achieve sustainable building concepts. | ||||
| Learning objective | Understanding the building from an integrated view on form, material and technical systems. Focus on CO2 - neutral building design concepts, utilizing energy and exergy efficient sytems. | ||||

| 063-0116-16L | Architecture and Building Systems (Thesis Elective) Thesis Elective for Master class students in English or German. | 6 credits | 11A | A. Schlüter | |
| Abstract | The knowledge gained from the lecture series of Energy and Climate Systems will be applied in this elective course work. Focusing on specific questions, this knowledge will be deepened. Each topic will be individually discussed with each student. Based on the design of studios or other projects, a building will be examined with the goal of emissions-free building operation. | ||||
| Learning objective | The objectives are to understand the challenges that arise with these aspects of sustainability, to dimension the resulting technical systems and components, and to implement this in architecture. Further the students will learn to design the technical installations integrated into their architectonical design. Zero emission operation has to be achieved. Contact: nagyz@ethz.ch | ||||

| 227-1631-00L | Energy System Analysis | 4 credits | 3G | G. Andersson, S. Hellweg, F. Noembrini, A. Schlüter | |
| Abstract | The course provides an introduction to the methods and tools for analysis of energy consumption, energy production and energy flows. Environmental aspects are included as well as economical considerations. Different sectors of the society are discussed, such as electric power, buildings, and transportation. Models for energy system analysis planning are introduced. | ||||
| Learning objective | The purpose of the course is to give the participants an overview of the methods and tools used for energy systems analysis and how to use these in simple practical examples. | ||||
| Content | The course gives an introduction to methods and tools for analysis of energy consumption, energy production and energy flows. Both larger systems, e.g. countries, and smaller systems, e.g. industries, homes, vehicles, are studied. The tools and methods are applied to various problems during the exercises. Different conventions of energy statistics used are introduced. The course provides also an introduction to energy systems models for developing scenarios of future energy consumption and production. Bottom-up and Top-Down approaches are addressed and their features and applications discussed. The course contains the following parts: Part I: Energy flows and energy statistics Part II: Environmental impacts Part III: Electric power systems Part IV: Energy in buildings Part V: Energy in transportation Part VI: Energy systems models | ||||
