Sustainable Tall Buildings: Summary of Energy-Efficient Design Tall buildings are frequently decried as unsustainable due to their excessive energy usage. Early skyscrapers used natural light and ventilation to facilit... K Al-Kodmany,MM Ali,PJ Armstrong - International journal of high-rise buildings...
For example, heat pipes, thermosyphons and other two-phase cooling devices have been designed to remove heat from high-power electronic components in an efficient manner. In these devices, heat is transported away from the heat source by means of a heat conducting fluid inside the device. This...
In order to supply the remaining heat downhole, electrical power is transmitted to the reservoir face. This method of transmission is very efficient compared to thermal transmission. Electric cables, each permanently connected to its resistance heater, supply the remaining 35% of the heat. While the...
Today, energy-efficient LEDs are the norm when it comes to lighting applications. However, the design and shape of industrial luminaires still do not enable players to fully exploit the potential of LED technology. Makrolon® TC polycarbonate performs effectively as a...
The study reveals that thermally upgrading the building roof and wall with insulation materials and upgrading the windows with energy-efficient glazing and local shadings can achieve a reduction in cooling load from 53.51 kWh/m2/y to 40.8 kWh/m2/y. Furthermore, the heating ...
and the thermally insulating box body provided in the present invention, a thermally insulating box provides excellent thermal insulation effects and excellent impact resistance, costs for personalized customization of different sizes are inexpensive, and, the manufacturing method is simple and efficient.LIU...
Increasingly, lighting manufacturers are being driven to produce energy efficient alternatives to incandescent lamps. One such alternative was the CFL discussed above. CFLs fit in existing incandescent lamp sockets and generally use less power to emit the same amount of visible light as incandescent lam...
instead of trying to reject heat to the air within the traffic signal housing, heat is directly rejected to outside air. The use of a cylindrical heat sink with an integral (flat) bottom 36 as shown, allows for efficient coupling of the LED mounting substrate or circuit board 26 to the ...
