  4. 17. Solar Shading for Low Energy Use and Daylight Quality in Offices: Simulations, Measurements and Design Tools

    Author : Marie-Claude Dubois; Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Byggnadsteknik; Building construction; screens; venetian blinds; awnings; design tools; measurements; computer simulations; solar-protective glass; heating; cooling; visual comfort; daylighting; energy use; Shading devices; solar protection; Architecture; interior design; Arkitektur; inredningsarkitektur; Energy research; Energiforskning;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the impact of solar shading devices on energy use and daylight quality in office rooms. The impact on energy use is analysed through computer simulations with the dynamic energy simulation program Derob-LTH while the impact on daylight quality is investigated through measurements in full-scale experimental office rooms and simulations with the program Radiance.

    Abstract : Waterborne public transportation (WPT) is slowly increasing in importance as an active component of public transportation networks in cities. City planners are looking at WPT to overcome urban congestion and pollution. READ MORE

  6. 19. On a learning system for industrial automation : Model-based control and diagnostics for decision support

    Author : Moksadur Rahman; Konstantinos Kyprianidis; Anders Avelin; Gunnar Bengtsson; John Hedengren; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Learning system; Supervisory system; Pulp and paper; Micro gas turbine; Process modelling; Model-based control; Diagnostics; Decision support; Anomaly detection; Fault detection; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Access to energy is fundamental to economic and technological advancement. Hence, the more the world develops, the greater the demand for energy becomes. Evidently, the production and consumption of energy alone account for more than 80% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. READ MORE

  7. 20. Energy Savings by Using Daylight for Basic Urban Shapes : With a Case Study of Three Different Street Types

    Author : Bengt Sundborg; Tigran Haas; Jan Ejhed; Ulf Ranhagen; Barbara Matusiak; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; daylight; energy; climate; urban design principles; urban pattern; street grid; Arkitektur; Architecture;

    Abstract : During winter the sun is in short supply. But research at KTH shows that solar radiation can be facilitated while energy consumption for lighting is reduced. This provided that the buildings are appropriately designed. But, unfortunately, the sunlight is often not taken into account and the results are the opposite. READ MORE
