This method is the core of the whole class. It takes each building
contained in the city object and calculates and returns the envelope
and opening emission of the embodied and end of life cycles. The building
comes from the calculate_emission() method which goes through every
building of the city object (meaning the input of the LCACarbonWorkflow
object.
The calculate_building_component_emission() method goes through each
surface of the given building then each boundary of that surface to
calculate the embodied and end of life emission of openings and the
envelope of the building. It is being carried out by utilizing to
hidden methods of the current class (methods contain description.)
At the end, a tuple will be returned, containing the emissions
attributes. The tuple will be unpacked in the calculate_emission()
method. The attributes and their types are explained in the constructor.
The building parameter comes from the calculate_emission() method
which iterates through the city object buildings.
