Integrating PCM into hollow brick walls: Toward energy conservation in Mediterranean regions
Youssef Hamidi,Youssef Hamidi,Zakaria Aketouane,Mustapha Malha,Denis Bruneau,Abdellah Bah,Rémy Goiffon +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, phase change materials (PCM) are applied to building envelopes to improve thermal energy storage, thus they can be used to increase the thermal mass of buildings, and the efficiency of using PCMs to mitigate building cooling demands in eight cities representing the Mediterranean region.
Journal ArticleDOI
Operation assessment of an air-PCM unit for summer thermal comfort in a naturally ventilated building
Maria De Los Ángeles Ortega Del Rosario,Miguel Chen Austin,Denis Bruneau,Jean-Pierre Nadeau,Patrick Sebastian,Dimitri Jaupard +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, thermal energy storage with phase change materials has been used for HVAC applications in the residential sector, due to the increasing energy use and greenhouse gas emissions related to HVC applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
E2VENT: An Energy Efficient Ventilated Façade Retrofitting System. Presentation of the Embedded LHTES System ☆
TL;DR: In this article, a modular and adaptable ventilated facade retrofitting system that integrates an energy efficient HVAC system is proposed to reduce energy consumption and improve indoor air quality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving thermal environment for school buildings in Palestine, the role of passive design
TL;DR: In this paper, a quantitative analysis was carried out based on field measurements by recording some thermal comfort parameters (mainly air temperature and relative humidity) for one year in the school.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a prediction of outdoor human thermal comfort adapted for designers of urban spaces: examining UTCI and APCI in the context of Algiers (Algeria)
TL;DR: The correlation between UTCI and the subjective APCI shows that UTCI is able to correctly predict and assess the level of outdoor human thermal comfort felt in the south Mediterranean climate, and designers can evaluate their proposals using digital architectural and urban modelling tools that include calculation of UTCI.
