A PC-tool to calculate the Moisture Buffer Value
(Elsevier, 2017)
Hygroscopic building materials have the ability to moderate the relative humidity variation without the need for active systems. The moisture buffer phenomenon can be assessed by way of the Moisture Buffer Value (MBV). ...
Optimización en la operación y el diseño de plantas de microcogeneración para edificios de viviendas
(2016-01-20)
En la actualidad, el sector de la edificación es responsable del 17% del consumo de energía final en España, siendo aproximadamente un 60% debido a la demanda de calefacción y agua caliente sanitaria. La creciente preocupación ...
Application of Thermoeconomics in HVAC Systems
(MDPI, 2020-06-17)
In order to achieve a sustainable society, the energy consumption in buildings must be reduced. The first step toward achieving this goal is to detect their weak points and analyze the energy-saving potential. to detect ...
Thermoeconomics. A tool for energy and economic evaluation of building thermal systems
(2019-01-08)
One of the current main objectives of the European Union is focused on primary energy conservation, as a consequence of the enduring climate change the world is undergoing. Buildings are responsible for almost 40 % of the ...
Método de cálculo de comportamiento térmico de cerramientos de edificios con materiales de cambio de fase
(2017-06-19)
El almacenamiento de energía térmica en forma de calor latente puede ser una buena medida para reducirla demanda tanto de refrigeración como de calefacción de los edificios. EL fuerte comportamiento nolineal de este tipo ...
Low Effort L-i Nuclear Fusion Plasma Control Using Model Predictive Control Laws
(Hindawi Publishing, 2015)
One of the main problems of fusion energy is to achieve longer pulse duration by avoiding the premature reaction decay due to plasma instabilities. The control of the plasma inductance arises as an essential tool for the ...
European Cities in the Energy Transition: A Preliminary Analysis of 27 Cities
(MDPI, 2020-03-12)
Nowadays, there is a wide scientific consensus about the unsustainability of the current energy system and at the same time, social awareness about climate change and the IPCC’s goals is increasing in Europe. Amongst ...
Monitoring System Analysis for Evaluating a Building’s Envelope Energy Performance through Estimation of Its Heat Loss Coefficient
(MDPI, 2018-07)
The present article investigates the question of building energy monitoring systems used for data collection to estimate the Heat Loss Coefficient (HLC) with existing methods, in order to determine the Thermal Envelope ...
Análisis de un combustible proveniente de aceite lubricante reciclado para uso en motores diésel marinos de media velocidad
(2017-07-13)
La mayoría de los buques están equipados con motores diésel. Los motores diésel, debido a sus características de combustión, son capaces de emplear hidrocarburos de características muy diferentes: combustibles pesados, ...
Experimentation under real performing conditions of a highly integrable unglazed solar collector into a building façade
(Elsevier, 2017)
In the current context of moving towards more sustainable construction, advanced facade systems that integrate solar collecting devices represent a commitment with future trends that combine renewable technologies with ...
