Despite much research and applications, glass material its use in buildings is still challenging for engineers due to inherent brittleness characteristic features such as sensitivity stress concentrations, reduction strength over time from temperature, breakage the stresses that may build up because of thermal gradients. This paper presents results an original test series carried out on monolit...

A hybrid condensing radiant tubes system coupled to a heat pump typical industrial building was modeled in three climatic zones of Italy using dynamic simulation software. The heating set up by and an air with terminals placed the supplied hot water produced condensation exhausted external source. An optimization main parameters (nominal power pump, bivalent temperature alternative operation, p...

In the current context of joint efforts towards decarbonisation buildings, integrating occupants’ comfort and health with latest technological advancements for energy efficiency is at center development research, policies professional practice. Radiant systems are encountering great success since low-thickness can also be used in renovation projects both heating cooling, while guaranteeing opti...

In the present paper, we have presented a Maxwellian boundary-type solution for total internal reflection with unbounded incident waves at an interface between two nonabsorbing media, in which the instantaneous, time varying, and time averaged radiant fluxes have been determined at all points in the two media. Solutions for the s and p polarizations were found for which the instantaneous tangen...

This study aimed to gain knowledge that the effect of local-heating soles on cognitive temperature. As a result, temperature got warmer under condition warm radiant exergy is 1.1 1.3 W/m2, heat conduction 0.4 0.6 W/m2. And also, it contributes improvement thermal sensation and comfort. Additionally, can take into account impact conduction. In addition, subjects’ responses were out alignment wit...
