Abstract

The design of buildings is a multi-criterion optimization problem, there always being a tradeo-off to be made between capital expenditure, operating cost, and occupant thermal comfort. This paper investigates the application of a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) search method in the identification of the optimum pay-off characteristic between the elements of the building design problem. Results are presented for the pay-off characteristics between daily energy cost and zone thermal comfort, and for building capital cost and energy cost. It was concluded that the MOGA was able to find the optimum pay-off characteristic between the daily energy cost and zone thermal comfort, but that the characteristic between the capital cost and energy cost was sub-optimal. However, it can be concluded that multi-criterion genetic algorithm search methods offer great potential for the identification of the pay-off between the elements of building thermal design, and as such can help inform the building design process.
