English abstract:
This paoper focuses on thermal behavior of recently constructed non-insulated single detached family units in the region of Kosovo and the potential for improving their energy and comfort performance. Methodologically, a simulation-based approach was selected to conduct the study. Multiple simulations were conducted using a sample of three single detached houses. Thereby, the effect of thermal retrofitting measures on the energy performacne of (and thermal comfort conditions in) was explored).
