Effect of solar storage wall on the passive solar heating constructions

Numerical investigation of the heating performance of normal and new designed Trombe wall

“…In the previous studies [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] the width of Trombe wall was equal to the room width which occupied the whole of the south room wall. Jaber and Ajib [17] studied numerically the optimal width of the Trombe wall system in the Mediterranean region.…”

Life cycle economic and environmental assessment for establishing the optimal implementation strategy of rooftop photovoltaic system in military facility

“…Gonz alez-Gonz alez et al (2014) analyzed the energy self-sufficiency for the hybridization of biogas and photovoltaic system focused on a pig slaughterhouse; however, this study did not consider the types of roof in implementing PV system (Gonz alez-Gonz alez et al, 2014). Hassanain et al (2011) analyzed the solar thermal energy storage effect based on the roof type (gable roof, flat roof, or dome roof), but did not analyze the implementation of the PV system (Hassanain et al, 2011). Gupta and Chandra (2002) analyzed the energy-saving effects of different roof types (gable roofs, Quonset roofs, and gothic arch roofs) and orientations (east-west and north-south), but did not analyze the implementation of the PV system (Gupta and Chandra, 2002).…”

Experimental investigations on the performance of a collector–storage wall system using phase change materials

“…Solar rays penetrate the glazing and are absorbed and stored as thermal energy by the massive wall with prominent temperature changes [1,2]. Part of the heat energy is then transferred from the wall to the room by conduction, and is also exchanged to the air in the channel/gap by convection and then is ejected into the room through the upper vent driven by buoyancy [3,4].…”
