Dataset of residential buildings performance, construction, geometry, and ventilation for sixteen mediterranean locations

This dataset comprises the performance, construction, geometry, and ventilation data of residential buildings for 16 climate regions. 500 residential buildings have different ventilation parameters for air changes per hour, and indoor minimum temperature and delta temperature for window opening, for each climate location (totalizing 1080 thousand buildings). The climate regions are CYP_Larnaca, DZA_Algiers, EGY_Alexandria, ESP_Malaga, ESP_Valencia, FRA_Marseille, GRC_Athens, ISR_TelAviv, ITA_Naples, ITA_Venice, LBY_Tripoli, MAR_Casablanca, MNE_Podgorica, TUN_Tunis, TUR_Istanbul, and TUR_Izmir, available at the Department of Energy (URL https://energyplus.net/weather). The geometric data was generated using the EPSAP algorithm (URL http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cad.2013.01.001; http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cad.2013.01.003; http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2013.06.005); the construction elements physical properties were saved from the EPSAP algorithm database; and, the performance data was obtained using the FPOP algorithm coupled to the simulation engine EnergyPlus v8.8.0 (URL http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2014.06.016; http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2014.06.068).
