Hi,
Does anyone know of a study that compares the energy consumption of various housing types (such as single-family detached, row house, etc) using building simulation?? Thanks for your help.

Holly,

Lukas Swan at Dalhousie University has done a considerable amount of
work in this field (LSwan at Dal.Ca). Here are a couple of paper titles
that I know of:
Lukas Swan, "Modeling the residential end-use energy consumption in the
residential sector using a hybrid engineering/ neural network approach"

Lukas Swan, V.I. Ugursal, and Ian Beausoleil-Morrison. A new hybrid,
end-use energy and emissions model of the Canadian housing stock. In
