  1. 1. Improving the thermal climate of schools in semi-desert climate : A case study of solutions in La Guajira, Colombia

    Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Författare :Michael Johansson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Solar chimney; Thermal comfort; Classrooms; School; La Guajira; Colombia;

    Sammanfattning : As the climate changes, hot regions like La Guajira's semi-desert will become even hotter. It is projected that the average temperature in this region will increase by 2.4 ℃ over the course of this century, with a 20 % reduction in precipitation. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Simulations of energy efficient windows in a historical building located in mid-Sweden

    Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Författare :Iñigo Medrano Eraso; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Amorphous silicon; photovoltaic; windows; Gävle townhall; thermal comfort; energy efficiency; solar panel windows; IDA ICE. ;

    Sammanfattning : Amorphous silicon photovoltaic windows intend to not only improve thethermal bridge that windows represent but also to collect energy from theradiation incident on the windows themselves. This kind of windows can beapplied anywhere, however to maximize the benefit these can bring it isrecommended for sun-oriented façades. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Pros and Cons of Using Large Concrete Blocks in an Office Building Structure : Comfort, Stability, Sustainability

    Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggteknik (BY)

    Författare :Shwan Baban; Asliyalfani Abolfazl; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Concrete blocks; C3C blocks; FE models; life cycle analysis; mechanical connections; CO2 emissions.;

    Sammanfattning : In 2019, the cement industry used 280 million tons of oil equivalent, contributing to 7% of totalindustrial energy consumption. This resulted in 2.4 billion tons of CO2 emissions, constituting26% of the industrial sector’s CO2 output and 7% of global energy-related emissions. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Daylight qualities in student dorms in Sweden: computer simulations and subjective impressions.

    Magister-uppsats, KTH/Ljusdesign

    Författare :Mathilde Jesiek; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Student housing; Visual perception; Daylight simulations; Useful Daylight Illuminance UDI ; Scandinavia;

    Sammanfattning : Humans are less exposed to natural light during the day and less to darkness at night. Good daylighting provides visual comfort for performing tasks but also influences non-visual comfort. According to various studies, good daylight conditions can influence human physiology and behaviour, like sleep, alertness, mood and cognitive functions. LÄS MER
