Abstract Latent cooling load accounts for 30% of the total air-conditioning, and its proportion is even higher in many tropical subtropical climates. Traditional vapour-compression air-conditioning (VCAC) has a low coefficient performance (COP) due to refrigeration dehumidification process, which often makes necessary great deal subsequent re-heating. Technologies using conventional desiccants or sorbents indoor moisture control are less competitive than VCAC their high regeneration...
Worldwide cooling energy demands will increase by four times 2050. Thermally driven technology is an alternative solution to electric heat pumps in removing hazardous refrigerants and harnessing renewables waste heat. We highlight the advantages of water-stable microporous aluminum-carboxylate-based metal-organic frameworks, or Al-MOFs, as sorbents application producing cold from Here, we synthesize Al-MOFs with green scalable processes, which are prerequisites for exploring various...
The present deployment of photovoltaic (PV) panels on the rooftop has been far below its potential. Stakeholders often see PV as a strong design constraint, isolated from built environment and not adapted to their requirements. Here, we propose new that combines with metal-organic framework based sorptive thermal battery, which serves multi-functional building element is more actively involved in indoor regulation. open-loop battery can stock moisture air 10 5 times volume so high humidity...
Abstract The use of desiccant-coated heat exchangers (DCHE) in air conditioning systems possesses great advantages the independent control both temperature and humidity, as well low energy consumption high coefficient performance (COP). paper presents a novel cooling system that uses metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) sorbents for humidity control. MOFs are new class porous crystalline materials consisted metal clusters organic linkers, which have an excellent water sorption due to large...
Adsorption chillers can substitute the electric energy demand of conventional compression with low-temperature heat. The efficiency and power density adsorption depend on their adsorbent refrigerant, which form working pair. Novel pairs are therefore actively developed characterized in dynamic small-scale experiments using a characteristic time constant. However, this evaluation by only few constants, does not resolve trade-off between novel materials challenging to compare due varying size,...
ABSTRACTNatural ventilation helps to cool buildings in summer without energy consumption, but its application may be restricted by acoustic and glare constraints. Here, a modelling approach integrating different physical aspects was developed connected TRNSYS. Different control strategies of glazed openings were defined simulations performed with an office room detached family house. We find the natural potential is largely reduced due visual comfort An shutter, which facilitates more...
Natural ventilation generally implies a complete or partial opening of windows which modifies the solar gains and natural lighting, changing daylight factors. This “secondary” effect is neglected in building energy simulation. study analyzes impact on modification optical characteristics glazed surfaces thermal condition lighting due to windows. The results focus window visual performance including not only air change rate but also negative arrive directly room through opening. parametric...
