This paper outlines the results and lessons derived from monitoring the Elizabeth Fry Building at the University of East Anglia (UEA) for a period of 18 months in use. The monitoring, carried out as part of the Department of Environment, Transport and the Region's Energy Efficiency Best Practice programme, sought to examine the performance of the building as a whole rather than focusing on one particular element.
The radiative cooling potential is determined by the ambient temperature, relative humidity, wind velocity, and cloudiness. Previous assessments of the radiative cooling potential in Greece have been based on mean weather data. In chis paper, 12 years of hourly weather data are used to assess the radiative cooling potential in Athens. The performance results for a simple radiator are also presented. The radiative cooling potential for Athens is promising and simple radiators can be used to estimate the cooling potential.
Advanced Fabric Energy Storage allows buildings to maintain a comfortable internal environment whilst incurring a significantly reduced energy consumption and financial cost This paper provides a concise reference of the key design features of advanced Fabric Energy Storage, sharing experience gained from several years of involvement with the first UK projects.
