Energia Design method (Kistelegdi, I. et al., 2013) integrates both energy related issues as well as comfort
and quality of life related questions. As its extension, Energia Design Synthesis (EDS) method concentrates
on the generation of all feasible and potentially optimal building combinations based on mathematical rigor.
For a certain class of family houses, complex dynamic building simulation database was created with IDA ICE.
Previously, energy related issues of the database were deeply investigated. (Vincze, N. et al., 2022)
In this paper, output parameters related to comfort are considered as a basis of the building design investigations.
Based on the results of the simulations, the most influential parameters and their dependencies were identified.
Fifteen building design variables were selected, for example structure, wall window ratio, orientation, specific
surfaces, edges, and vertices together with a complex descriptor specified by architect experts. Morris’
Elementary Effect method was used for the sensitivity analysis performed. The order, dominance, monotonicity,
and linearity of the parameters were carefully investigated together with their joint effects. The results were
compared to the results of some previously performed energy related investigations.
Keywords: sensitivity analysis, building simulation database, evaluation
