Embedding Stochasticity in Building Simulation Through Synthetic Weather Files

This paper presents an attempt to create synthetic weather data for stochastic building simulation. The synthetic data are created entirely from the freely available Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) weather files using time series models and resampling. T ...

Visualizing street orientation and solar radiation in relation to complex topography

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni

Street networks can be visualized in various ways depending on the purpose. Here we introduce (in the present context) a new technique for visualizing the orientation of street networks in relation to complex topography. The technique is tested on the city ...

Relevant impact of irradiance (vs. dose) and evolution of pH and mineral nitrogen compounds during natural water disinfection by photo-Fenton in a solar CPC reactor

César Pulgarin, Juliette Ndounla

The inactivation of total coliforms/E. coli (10(4) CFU/mL) and Salmonella spp. (10(5) CFU/mL) in well water naturally containing dissolved (Fe2+/3+) and solid iron forms (e.g. iron oxides) was carried out by photo Fenton treatment (Fe-2+,Fe-3+/H2O2/hv). In ...

Concept, Design and Performance of a Shape Variable Mashrabiya as a Shading and Daylighting System for Arid Climates

Marilyne Andersen, Boris Clément Karamata

The design of a solar protection system that can minimize solar gains while maximizing daylight and view to the outside is particularly challenging in arid climates, such as in the Middle-East, where sand, wind and corrosion impose specific constraints. We ...

Les mécanismes de lumière naturelle: analyse des bibliothèques d'Alvar Aalto. (Prix IBE-BIV 2013, Institut Belge de l'éclairage, affilié à la CIE)

Jean-Denis Bernard Marie Ghislain Thiry

Today, the challenges of sustainable development require revisiting all the parameters of architectural design. According to the International Energy Agency , in 2005, 19% of the electricity produced in the world was consumed for lighting. We know that the ...

Elucidating bacterial regrowth: Effect of disinfection conditions in dark storage of solar treated secondary effluent

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis

In this study, we systematically investigate solar disinfection of synthetic secondary wastewater, with the effort to decrypt the effects disinfection conditions have on post-irradiation bacterial regrowth in the dark. A full factorial design of 240 experi ...

Mesoporous TiO2 Beads Offer Improved Mass Transport for Cobalt-Based Redox Couples Leading to High Efficiency Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Michael Graetzel, Fabrizio Giordano, Thomas Moehl, Leo-Philipp Heiniger

Overcoming ionic diffusion limitations is essential for the development of high-efficiency dye-sensitized solar cells based on cobalt redox mediators. Here, improved mass transport is reported for photoanodes composed of mesoporous TiO2 beads of varying po ...

Yttrium-substituted nanocrystalline TiO2 photoanodes for perovskite based heterojunction solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Nicolas Tétreault, Peng Gao, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Thomas Moehl, Aravind Kumar Chandiran, Peng Qin

We report the use of Y3+-substituted TiO2 (0.5% Y-TiO2) in solid-state mesoscopic solar cells, consisting of CH3NH3PbI3 as the light harvester and spiro-OMeTAD as the hole transport material. A power conversion efficiency of 11.2% under simulated AM 1.5 fu ...
