Vernacular architecture constitutes a rich source of information and ancestral knowledge and could become a key resource for sustainable development. Its passive design strategies effectively respond to local climatic and ...
Estudo de casos sobre a inércia térmica de edificações na cidade de São Carlos.
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosBRUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Civil - PPGECiv, 2004-04-20)
In this work, it was investigated the use of thermal inertia in buildings located in Sao Carlos city, SP, which presents semi-humid climate. This research aims to verify the hypothesis that the use of thermal inertia in ...
Variable Thermal Comfort Index for Indoor Work Space in Office Buildings: A Study in Germany
(Scientific Research Publishing Inc., 2016-09)
International standards state the thermal comfort requirements that office spaces must comply with. These are based on a model developed by Prof. Paul Ole Fanger of the Centre for Indoor Environment and Energy, Denmark. ...
Assessment of the Effect of Phase Change Material (PCM) Glazing on the Energy Consumption and Indoor Comfort of an Office in a Semiarid Climate
(2021)
Office buildings are usually characterized by low thermal inertia, which could cause underperformance in terms of energy consumption. Moreover, the use of large, glazed facades in office buildings can cause thermal and ...
Flow generated by a thermal plume in a cooled-ceiling system
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2011-10)
The transient and steady states of the flow generated by a heat source inside a closed room provided with a cooled-ceiling system at constant temperature are experimentally studied. During the transient regime the plume ...
