Abstract:The aim of this study is to create a decision making methodology for fuel performances and greenhouse gas emissions of heating systems by considering combination of financial and non-financial criteria which are dependent on the region and the people, and to show logical choices numerically. For this purpose, a specific building with its architectural drawings was selected and heat loss equations were utilized by using MS Excel according to TS 825. Calculations of heat loss were performed separately for four different types of heating zones in our country by selecting different cities in these zones. Bu using heat losses which were calculated based on placing the building in different zones, different types of heating strategies were determined. Moreover, fuel costs, installation cost and greenhouse gas emissions were determined based on different fuel usage amounts. These calculations and observed criteria were investigated by Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP),VIKOR and TOPSIS, which are merged under Multi Criteria Decision Making Methods and an effort for showing the mathematical aspect of comparison of these selections was performed in order to determined the best solution.
