Predicting the thermal performance of thermochromic flat plate solar collectors

A thermochromic vanadium dioxide (VO2) based absorber coating is proposed. The optical response of the multilayered absorber is first simulated, then, the spectral reflectance of the deposited absorber is measured. The determined solar absorptance and ther ...

Variation in thermal, visual and overall comfort evaluation under coloured glazing at different temperature levels

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Giorgia Chinazzo

Within the scope of a broader research project about daylight and temperature interaction effects on human responses, this paper investigates how daylight transmitted through spectrally selective glazing (blue, orange and a reference neutral) affects therm ...

Split-pane electrochromic window control based on an embedded photometric device with real-time daylighting computing

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

Well-designed electrochromic (EC) glazing control can improve the energy performance of buildings and visual comfort of occupants in highly glazed buildings. This paper designed and demonstrated a compact integrated EC glazing automation system to control ...

Solar heat gains through train windows: a non-negligible contribution to the energy balance

Josef Andreas Schuler, Olivia Valérie Charlotte Bouvard, Luc Burnier

The sector of transportation accounts for about one third of the total energy consumption in Switzerland. A monitoring campaign of the energy consumption of a regional train revealed the critical energy-consuming systems. Heating, cooling and ventilation w ...

Optimal design of solar-assisted industrial processes considering heat pumping: Case study of a dairy

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Maziar Kermani, Anna Sophia Wallerand, Régis Voillat

Pinch analysis and Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) have been extensively studied for optimization of industrial processes addressing heat recovery, utility selection and sizing. Analysis of renewable utility integration, such as solar thermal or ph ...

Towards novel glazing with seasonal dynamics based on micro compound parabolic concentrators

André Gabriel Kostro, Josef Andreas Schuler, Jing Gong

Thermal loss and overheating caused by glazing is a key issue in reducing CO2 emission and energy consumption of buildings. A novel glazing based on micro compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs) is proposed. The glazing consists of a polymer layer with emb ...

Lighting simulation for External Venetian blinds based on BTDF and HDR sky luminance monitoring

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

The precise daylighting simulation in buildings can potentially contribute to designers’ and occupants’ smart utilization of it. The traditional method of employing sky models was indicated with noticeable errors in transient lighting simulation for comple ...

Mechanical energy budget and mixing efficiency for a radiatively heated ice-covered waterbody

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez

Ice-covered waterbodies are far from being quiescent systems. In this paper, we investigate ice-covered freshwater basins heated by solar radiation that penetrates across waters with temperatures below or near the temperature of maximum density. In this sc ...

Assessing visibility in multi-scale urban planning: A contribution to a method enhancing social acceptability of solar energy in cities

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Christian Roecker, Maria Cristina Munari Probst, Josef Andreas Schuler, Pietro Florio

Urban areas are facing a growing deployment of solar photovoltaic and thermal technologies on building envelopes, both on roofs and on façades. An effective solar energy planning process considers social acceptance, in relation to the landscape alteration ...
