Energy effectiveness of passive cooling design strategies to reduce the impact of long-term heatwaves on occupants' thermal comfort in Europe: Climate change and mitigation

B. Ozarisoy

Summary: Many energy-efficient terraced houses are at risk of overheating due to design issues. This study reviews the overheating risk and energy effectiveness of six passive design strategies using a monitoring campaign and simulation. The results highlight deviations in energy consumption and design effectiveness.

Incorporating PCM-enabled thermal energy storage into 3D printable cementitious composites

Adam L. Brooks et al.

Summary: This study investigates the feasibility of incorporating microencapsulated phase change materials (mPCM) into 3D printable cementitious composite materials. The results show that mPCM significantly affects the printability, mechanical properties, and thermal conductivity of the cementitious ink material. In addition, the inclusion of mPCM influences the printing parameters, with higher volume contents requiring a higher extrusion rate. Overall, the study suggests that mPCM has good potential for improving the thermal and energy performance of 3D printed buildings.
