Assessment of the Impact of Occupants’ Behavior and Climate Change on Heating and Cooling Energy Needs of Buildings
Fajilla, Gianmarco; De Simone, Marilena; Cabeza, Luisa F.; Bragança, Luís (MDPI, 2020)Energy performance of buildings is a worldwide increasing investigated field, due to ever more stringent energy standards aimed at reducing the buildings' impact on the environment. The purpose of this paper is to assess ... -
Effect of climate change and occupant behaviour on the environmental impact of the heating and cooling systems of a real apartment. A parametric study through life cycle assessment
Fajilla, Gianmarco; Borri, Emiliano; De Simone, Marilena; Cabeza, Luisa F.; Bragança, Luís (2021)Climate change has a strong influence on the energy consumption of buildings, affecting both the heating and cooling demand in the actual and future scenario. In this paper, a life cycle assessment (LCA) was performed to ... -
Experimental evaluation of the use of fins and metal wool as heat transfer enhancement techniques in a latent heat thermal energy storage system
Gasia, Jaume; Maldonado, José Miguel; Galati, Francesco; De Simone, Marilena; Cabeza, Luisa F. (Elsevier, 2019)This paper experimentally studies and compares the addition of fins and the addition of metal wool in a latent heat thermal energy storage (TES) system as heat transfer enhancement techniques. Despite the well-known ... -
Plant cover and floristic composition effect on thermal behaviour of extensive green roofs
Bevilacqua, Piero; Coma Arpón, Julià; Pérez Luque, Gabriel; Chocarro, Cristina; Juárez Escario, Alejandro; Solé Cutrona, Cristian; De Simone, Marilena; Cabeza, Luisa F. (Elsevier, 2015)In the last few years an increasing attention has been paid to efficient energy construction systems in the building sector. Although in this contest extensive green roofs are reported to be very effective and sustainable ...
