Numerical analysis of the combination of radiative collectors and emitters to improve the performance of water-water compression heat pumps under different climates
(Elsevier, 2023)Radiative cooling allows to cool down surfaces in a renewable way. It can be combined with solar collection functionality to produce heat and cold in a single device known as Radiative Collector and Emitter (RCE). In this ... -
Mapping Nighttime and All-Day Radiative Cooling Potential in Europe and the Influence of Solar Reflectivity
(MDPI, 2021)Radiative cooling is a natural process to cool down surfaces through the rejection of thermal radiation using the outer space as a cold sink, taking advantage of the transparency of the atmospheric windows (8–14 µm), ... -
Adaptive covers for combined radiative cooling and solar heating. A review of existing technology and materials
(Elsevier, 2021-09-15)Radiative cooling is a promising technology for space cooling. This technology can be combined with solar heating applications, enabling the production of both energy demands -heat during daytime and cold during nighttime- ... -
Thermal Monitoring and Simulation of Earthen Buildings. A Review
(MDPI, 2021)Since ancient times, raw earth has been used worldwide as a construction material. Today, it is well known for its good environmental properties of recyclability and low embodied energy along the production process. ... -
Analysis of the Thermal Behavior of an Earthbag Building in Mediterranean Continental Climate: Monitoring and Simulation
(MDPI, 2020)Nearly 30% of humanity lives in earthen dwellings. Earthbag is a sustainable, cheap, feasible and comfortable option for emergency housing. A comparative monitoring-simulation analysis of the hygrothermal behavior of an ... -
Combined Radiative Cooling and Solar Thermal Collection: Experimental Proof of Concept
(2020-02-18)Climate change is becoming more important day after day. The main actor to decarbonize the economy is the building stock, especially in the energy used for Domestic Hot Water (DHW), heating and cooling. The use of renewable ...
