Competence Of A Spray Passive Down-Draft Evaporative Cooling (Pdec) System For Space Cooling, Daeho Kang, Richard K. Strand Sep 2019

Competence Of A Spray Passive Down-Draft Evaporative Cooling (Pdec) System For Space Cooling, Daeho Kang, Richard K. Strand

Publications and Research

A spray PDEC system has been relatively less considered than other passive cooling strategies as one of the viable low-energy solutions in the cooling of buildings while having a great potential in energy savings. This study is intended to evaluate the capability of a spray PDEC system for space cooling. It comprises four simulation scenarios to see the system response and influence of indoor thermal environment when a spray PDEC system is adopted as a primary cooling system in two different climates. The simulation results show that a spray PDEC system causes a substantial variation in the indoor thermal environment …


Quantification Of Heat Flows Through Building Entrance Doors On A Winter Day, Daeho Kang Sep 2019

Quantification Of Heat Flows Through Building Entrance Doors On A Winter Day, Daeho Kang

Publications and Research

The current methods for the prediction of the heat flow through building entrance doors have been used for years while involved with a certain degree of uncertainty. This paper describes an experimental method that accurately quantified such heat flow. The experiment monitored local environmental parameters in a college building on a cold winter day. The results of the experiment demonstrated that the experimental method is viable to accurately estimate the heat flow throughout the entrance doors and the presence of a vestibule moderated heat losses from the conditioned area. The results will be used for validating the existing methods.


The Reasons For Not Implementing Green Pyramid Rating System In Egyptian Buildings, Rania Rushdy Moussa Sep 2019

The Reasons For Not Implementing Green Pyramid Rating System In Egyptian Buildings, Rania Rushdy Moussa

Architectural Engineering

Green Pyramid Rating System ‘‘GPRS” was established in 2009, Yet sustainable architecture practices in Egypt does not shows constant steps of growth. This research discusses the reasons behind the negligence of implementing GPRS into projects as a sustainable design approach. The research intends to identify the gaps between the architectural curriculum’s and GPRS aspects. Research methods are divided into two parts the first part is a survey questionnaire targeting senior architecture students at Egyptian private universities and public universities, as well as experienced architects in order to determine their level of awareness toward the aspects of the GPRS. While the …


Long-Term Changes Of Open-Surface Water Bodies In The Yangtze River Basin Based On The Google Earth Engine Cloud Platform, Yue Deng, Wei-Guo Jiang, Zhenghong Tang, Ziyan Ling, Zhifeng Wu Sep 2019

Long-Term Changes Of Open-Surface Water Bodies In The Yangtze River Basin Based On The Google Earth Engine Cloud Platform, Yue Deng, Wei-Guo Jiang, Zhenghong Tang, Ziyan Ling, Zhifeng Wu

Community and Regional Planning Program: Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity

The spatiotemporal changes of open-surface water bodies in the Yangtze River Basin (YRB) have profound influences on sustainable economic development, and are also closely relevant to water scarcity in China. However, long-term changes of open-surface water bodies in the YRB have remained poorly characterized. Taking advantage of the Google Earth Engine (GEE) cloud platform, this study processed 75,593 scenes of Landsat images to investigate the long-term changes of open-surface water bodies in the YRB from 1984 to 2018. In this study, we adopted the percentile-based image composite method to collect training samples and proposed a multiple index water detection rule …

Planifikim Urban Qendër Gjelbrimi Dhe Rekreacioni, Xhevahire Skoro

Theses and Dissertations

Tema e zgjedhur për hulumtim ka të bëjë me një zonë për rekreim – park të qytetit. Këtu do të shqyrtohet organizimi sa më funksional i një parku të qytetit pasiqë vendodhja e saj është në një zone adekuate për një shfrytëzim të tillë ,ku ndodhet mu në mes të zonave afariso - banesore dhe atyre sociale. Nga ndërtimet e shumta në këtë zonë krjohen pamundësia të qarkullimit të lirë dhe ndotjeve te shumta te ajrit, gjithashtu pamundësohet socializimi i gjithë grupmoshave të njerëzve. Janë hapësirat e gjelbra absorbues kryesorë të ndotjes ku nëpërmjet degëve te dendura të pemëve dhe …
