Influence of outdoor air pollution on European residential ventilative cooling potential

Residential ventilative cooling via natural ventilation is influenced by outdoor air pollution. However, relative to climate, outdoor air pollution is not comprehensively considered in determining the ventilative cooling potential of buildings. To assess t ...

Heat recovery potential from ventilated passive and active facades

Dolaana Khovalyg, Mohammad Rahiminejad

A ventilated air-space behind external claddings can potentially affect the thermal performance of the entire building structure. In particular, in the Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) facades, ventilated cavities are typically present between the P ...

The Role of Hydraulic Failure in a Massive Mangrove Die-Off Event

Alice Jacqueline Frédérique Gauthey

Between late 2015 and early 2016, more than 7,000 ha of mangrove forest died along the coastline of the Gulf of Carpentaria, in northern Australia. This massive die-off was preceded by a strong 2015/2016 El Nino event, resulting in lower precipitation, a d ...

Effectiveness of passive climate change adaptation measures in Switzerland: A climate-based analysis on natural ventilation and overheating risks reduction in dwellings

Sergi Aguacil Moreno

Building energy codes have been implemented in Switzerland as well as across the world to reduce building energy consumption, however, due to the progressive effect of climate change phenomena and the precipitate change in occupancy patterns due to the glo ...

Impact of evapotranspiration on the local microclimate

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Silvia Coccolo, Dasaraden Mauree

Climate change is having and will have drastic consequences for high density populated areas such as cities. There is thus a need to develop more tools to evaluate new strategies for adaptation to and mitigation of changing temperatures. Additional functio ...

Enhancing Two-Phase Cooling Efficiency through Thermal- Aware Workload Mapping for Power-Hungry Servers

David Atienza Alonso, Marina Zapater Sancho, Arman Iranfar, Ali Pahlevan

The power density and, consequently, power hungriness of server processors is growing by the day. Traditional air cooling systems fail to cope with such high heat densities, whereas single-phase liquid-cooling still requires high mass flowrate, high pumpin ...

Life cycle efficiency ratio: a new performance indicator for a life cycle driven approach to evaluate the potential of ventilative cooling and thermal inertia

Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Flourentzos Flourentzou, Arianna Brambilla, Jérôme Philippe Bonvin

Building envelope design has gained importance as a means to reduce heating and cooling demand related to a building’s operational phase. However, in high internal load buildings, such as offices, internal gains can easily lead to overheating. Thermal iner ...

An overview of simulation tools for predicting the mean radiant temperature in an outdoor space

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Silvia Coccolo, Emanuele Naboni

When modelling outdoor microclimates, researchers and designers need to be aware of the modelling capabilities and limitations of tools. This comparative study attempts to understand how tools such as CitySim Pro, ENVI-met, RayMan, Grasshopper plug-ins Hon ...

Effects of incoming wind condition and wind turbine aerodynamics on the hub vortex instability

François Gallaire, Giacomo Valerio Iungo, Francesco Viola

Dynamics and instabilities occurring in the near-wake of wind turbines have a crucial role for the wake downstream evolution, and for the onset of far-wake instabilities. Furthermore, wake dynamics significantly affect the intra-wind farm wake flow, wake i ...

Passive design strategies and performance of Net Energy Plus Houses

Inaki Navarro Oiza

The first step in order to comply with the European Union goals of Near to Zero Energy Buildings is to reduce the energy consumption in buildings. Most of the building consumption is related to the use of active systems to maintain the interior comfort. Pa ...

Drying front and water content dynamics during evaporation from sand delineated by neutron radiography

Dani Or

Evaporative drying of porous media is jointly controlled by external ( atmospheric) conditions and by media internal transport properties. Effects of different atmospheric potential evaporative demand on observed drying rates were studied in a series of la ...
