Abstract:This Thesis focuses on the development of an experimentally validated equation based simulation model of a cooling panel with integrated latent thermal storage system for utilization in Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings (NZEB) buildings. Development of such model is necessary in order for this technology to achieve industry-readiness. The Thesis is composed of a literature review and an experimental study. The literature review focuses on NZEB requirements in the European Union (EU) member countries, previous resea… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
