Comparison of three different devices available in Spain to test thermal properties of building materials including phase change materials
Barreneche Güerisoli, Camila; Gracia Cuesta, Alvaro de; Serrano, Susana; Navarro, Maria E.; Borreguero, Ana María; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés; Carmona, Manuel; Rodriguez, Juan Francisco; Cabeza, Luisa F. (Elsevier, 2013)Thermal properties of materials used in building envelopes must be analysed in order to evaluate the thermal response of the constructive system. This thermal characterisation is a key point during the design phase of a ... -
Effect of microencapsulated phase change material in sandwich panels
Castellón, Cecilia; Medrano Martorell, Marc; Roca Enrich, Joan; Cabeza, Luisa F.; Navarro, Maria E.; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés; Lázaro, Ana; Zalba, Belén (Elsevier, 2010)Sandwich panels are a good option as building materials, as they offer excellent characteristics in a modular system. The goal of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of using the microencapsulated PCM (Micronal ... -
Experimental characterization of a solid industrial by-product as material for high temperature sensible thermal energy storage (TES)
Miró, Laia; Navarro, Maria E.; Suresh, Priyamvadha; Gil, Antoni; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés; Cabeza, Luisa F. (Elsevier, 2014)Nowadays, industrial processes use large quantities of fuel and electricity that produce heat, but much of which is wasted either to the atmosphere or to water. Many types of equipment have been developed to re-use some ... -
Improvement of the thermal inertia of building materials incorporating PCM. Evaluation in the macroscale
Barreneche Güerisoli, Camila; Navarro, Maria E.; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés; Cabeza, Luisa F. (Elsevier, 2013)The energy demand by the private sector for buildings HVAC systems has increased significantly, driving the scientific community to find different alternatives to reduce this high energy demand. Phase change materials ... -
New database to select phase change materials: chemical nature, properties, and applications
Barreneche Güerisoli, Camila; Navarro, Maria E.; Cabeza, Luisa F.; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés (Elsevier, 2015)Today, thermal energy storage materials are proposed as a promising solution to increase the energy efficiency in building sector and to reduce the total energy demand because building sector accounts up to 34% of total ... -
Selection and characterization of recycled materials for sensible thermal energy storage
Navarro, Maria E.; Martínez, Mònica; Gil, Antoni; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés; Cabeza, Luisa F.; Olives, R.; Py, Xavier (Elsevier, 2012)Alternative low cost materials are evaluated through the valorization of by-products derived from mining and metallurgical industry for solid sensible heat based energy storage systems. They were used either as received ... -
Use of PCM-polymer composite dense sheet including EAFD in constructive systems
Barreneche Güerisoli, Camila; Navarro, Maria E.; Niubó, Maria; Cabeza, Luisa F.; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés (Elsevier, 2014)In recent years, the overall energy consumption is increasing significantly and the energy consumption inthe building sector represents over 30% of the global ones in developed countries. Thermal energy storage(TES) using ...
