Abstract

Building energy consumption analysis is a crucial component of sustainable design, allowing for efficient planning of energy use and effective control of energy consumption. This paper focuses on a single-family residence located in Brooklyn, New York. Utilizing Revit software, and primarily analyzes the impact of geographic location and building orientation on energy consumption, ultimately selecting the most suitable architectural design. The total site energy consumption of the building is 203907.34 kBtu, and the total source energy consumption is 523300.15 kBtu according to the simulation. Overall, the climate of the building's location significantly influences energy consumption. Therefore, it is advisable to enhance the building's thermo control capabilities to effectively reduce energy consumption.
