Earthen architecture historically has been widely used for wall construction around the world, particularly in developing countries. Most of earthen dwellings Burkina Faso are built traditionally with adobe walls. This technique is low-cost but it easily eroded by water and often lacks satisfactory thermal comfort. In this work an alternative system, earthbag presented combined passive design measures to assess improvements Inspired a real dome-shape dwelling constructed Medical Training...
Server power densities are foreseen to increase, and conventional air-cooling systems will struggle cope with thermal demand. Single-phase immersion a promising alternative operate very intensive workload such as high-performance computing, cryptocurrencies mining or research activities. However, few companies deal this kind of system there is lack energy models that can reproduce an accurate analysis the behaviour. This study addresses experimentation, data collection, model validation...
The main objective of this paper is to demonstrate experimentally that it possible improve the thermal comfort and reduce energy consumption a building without substantial increase in weight construction materials with inclusion phase change (PCM). PCM are suitable promising technology for application. This presents an experimental setup test various typical insulation real conditions Puigverd de Lleida (Lleida, Spain). Nine small house-sized cubicles were constructed: two concrete, five...
