Current progress in adsorption technologies for low-energy buildings
Tập 1 - Trang 1-13 - 2015
Yu I. Aristov
More than half of the world’s population currently lives in cities. An essential constituent of future sustainable cities is energy efficient and ecologically sound buildings which ensure high levels of comfort and convenience without reducing the standards of living. At present, a significant part of primary fossil fuels is spent for heating/cooling of buildings, thus, greatly contributing to tot...... hiện toàn bộ
The need for UN climate change policy reformation
Tập 2 Số 1 - Trang 1-13 - 2016
Bannaga, Sharaf Eldin Ibrahim
This paper endeavours to understand the climate change phenomenon and identify measures taken to contain it. It discusses global warming causes and consequences and assesses effectiveness of the United Nations (UN) polices following failure of the Kyoto Protocol to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In pursuing this course of action, this paper utilizes data collected from East Africa region. Key is...... hiện toàn bộ
Monthly-averaged hourly solar diffuse radiation models for world-wide locations
Tập 1 - Trang 1-8 - 2015
T. Muneer, EJ Gago, S. Etxebarria
Monthly-averaged daily global irradiation data are now easily available from NASA website for any global location. Using established models it is then possible to decompose the daily to averaged-hourly global irradiation. The missing link so far has been hourly averaged diffuse irradiation. In this article data was pooled from 14 world-wide locations to obtain a regression model to complete the ab...... hiện toàn bộ
CFD simulation and validation of self-cleaning on solar panel surfaces with superhydrophilic coating
Tập 1 - Trang 1-15 - 2015
Jin Hu, Nicolas Bodard, Osmann Sari, Saffa Riffat
Solar panel conversion efficiency, typically in the twenty percent range, is reduced by dust, grime, pollen, and other particulates that accumulate on the solar panel. Cleaning dirty panels to maintain peak efficiency, which is especially hard to do for large solar-panel arrays. To develop a transparent, anti-soiling Nano-TiO2 coating to minimize the need for occasional cleaning is the purpose of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Transforming typical hourly simulation weather data files to represent urban locations by using a 3D urban unit representation with micro-climate simulations
Tập 2 - Trang 1-23 - 2016
Leonidas Bourikas, Patrick A. B. James, AbuBakr S. Bahaj, Mark F. Jentsch, Tianfeng Shen, David H. C. Chow, Jo Darkwa
Urban and building energy simulation models are usually driven by typical meteorological year (TMY) weather data often in a TMY2 or EPW format. However, the locations where these historical datasets were collected (usually airports) generally do not represent the local, site specific micro-climates that cities develop. In this paper, a humid sub-tropical climate context has been considered. An ide...... hiện toàn bộ
A simple and effective model for prediction of effective thermal conductivity of vacuum insulation panels
Tập 1 - Trang 1-8 - 2015
Ankang Kan, Liyun Kang, Chong Wang, Dan Cao
The excellent thermal insulation performance of vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) make them widely applied in energy conservation fields, especially in buildings engineering. This research work proposes a simple, yet extremely effective, alternative model for prediction of the effective thermal conductivity (ETC.) of VIPs. The ETC. of VIPs is function of the thermal conductivity of the core material...... hiện toàn bộ
Đánh giá tính khả thi kinh tế của việc áp dụng hệ thống trigeneration tại một khách sạn nhỏ Dịch bởi AI
Tập 2 - Trang 1-9 - 2016
Clito Afonso, Carlos Rocha
Năng lượng là yếu tố không thể thiếu cho mọi hoạt động của con người. Giao thông, sản xuất công nghiệp, thương mại, truyền thông, v.v. phụ thuộc vào khả năng cung cấp năng lượng. Truyền thống, người tiêu dùng đáp ứng nhu cầu năng lượng của họ bằng cách mua điện và nhiên liệu từ các công ty phân phối. Đối với việc sản xuất năng lượng điện mà người tiêu dùng tiêu thụ, một phần lớn được sản xuất tại ...... hiện toàn bộ
