Analysis of the Effect of Inhabitant Behavior on the Energy Consumption in the Residential Sector in Constantine, Algeria

Öz

This work aims to investigate the energy consumption trend of inhabitants and to study their behavior in order to rationalize this consumption. In this work, a statistical survey was conducted covering 100 homes in the town of Constantine located in the northeast of Algeria, in order to estimate the electricity and gas consumption by the inhabitants and analyzing their behaviors related to this consumption. In the second part of this work, a numerical simulation was carried out using TRNSYS software, for a building for which data were collected by the survey with the aim of determining its theoretical energy consumption and comparing it with real data obtained by the survey.
