Thermal comfort in naturally ventilated buildings with double skin façade under tropical climate conditions: The influence of key design parameters
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of key design parameters on the thermal behavior of a naturally ventilated building with double skin facade (DSF) under tropical climate conditions was evaluated using dynamic thermal simulations.

Human thermal comfort over three different land surfaces during summer in the city of Erzurum, Turkey
TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt has been made to compare the differences in human bioclimatological conditions 2 m above the ground between three different land surfaces: asphalt concrete, soil and grass surfaces, using a data set obtained on 15 clear and calm days in August 2005.

Seawater bitterns as a source of liquid desiccant for use in solar-cooled greenhouses
Philip A. Davies,Paul Knowles +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the scope for exploiting the hygroscopic salts occurring in these by-products, such as magnesium, calcium and sodium chloride, as desiccant solutions in a greenhouse cooling system.
