    Sammanfattning : Sustainable development is increasing its significance in both the scientific and political agenda. In light of this development, the United Nations have published 17 Sustainable development goals (SDGs). LÄS MER

  3. 2. External Water Condensation and Angular Solar Absorptance : Theoretical Analysis and Practical Experience of Modern Windows

    Författare :Anna Werner; Arne Roos; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Svend Svendsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Engineering physics; Windows; External condensation; Radiative cooling; Optical properties; Coated glass; External condensation; Radiant cooling; Teknisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Part I of this thesis is a theoretical background to parts II and III. Part II treats the phenomenon of decreased visibility through a glazing due to external water condensation, dew, on the external surface. Some simulations are presented where it is shown that under certain circumstances condensation can be expected. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Performance evaluations of high-temperature cooling systems in Mediterranean climate

    Författare :Henrikki Pieskä; Christophe Duwig; Saqib Javed; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-temperature cooling; building energy simulations; exergy; Högtemperaturkyla; byggnadsenergisimuleringar; exergi; Strömnings- och klimatteori; Fluid and Climate Theory;

    Sammanfattning : Cooling demand in Europe is predicted to grow 25-50% between 2020-2050. Meanwhile, the EU aims to lower the greenhouse gas emissions from its building stock by 60%. Therefore, it is essential to find solutions that can meet the growing cooling demand with less energy and integrate renewable energy sources. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Modelling of the daytime and night-time urban thermal environment

    Författare :Shiho Onomura; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; urban thermal environment; microclimate modelling; air temperature; mean radiant temperature; nocturnal cooling rates; synoptic weather types;

    Sammanfattning : The world’s urban population is expected to increase over the coming decades. To maintain and improve the health and well-being of urban citizens, it is important to increase our knowledge and develop methods for evaluating the urban thermal environment to support urban planning.
