Book Description
This book highlights the design of a new type of solar chimney that has lower height and bigger diameter, and discusses its applications. The bigger diameter chimneys are introduced showing cold inflow phenomena that significantly reduced the performance of solar chimney. The cold inflow-free operation of solar chimneys restores the draft losses and enhances the performance of the solar chimneys. Numerical and experimental investigation results will be presented to highlight the performance of cold inflow-free solar chimney performance. In addition, this book covers the important basic design parameters that affect the design of solar chimney for different applications, mainly, solar chimney-assisted ventilation for passive cooling and power generation system.

Book Description
Winner of Choice Magazine - Outstanding Academic Titles for 2007 Buildings account for over one third of global energy use and associated greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. Reducing energy use by buildings is therefore an essential part of any strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and thereby lessen the likelihood of potentially catastrophic climate change. Bringing together a wealth of hard-to-obtain information on energy use and energy efficiency in buildings at a level which can be easily digested and applied, Danny Harvey offers a comprehensive, objective and critical sourcebook on low-energy buildings. Topics covered include: thermal envelopes, heating, cooling, heat pumps, HVAC systems, hot water, lighting, solar energy, appliances and office equipment, embodied energy, buildings as systems and community-integrated energy systems (cogeneration, district heating, and district cooling). The book includes exemplary buildings and techniques from North America, Europe and Asia, and combines a broad, holistic perspective with technical detail in an accessible and insightful manner.

Book Description
Athalye Sapre Pitre College Devrukh has always been on the forefront in organizing different academic, co-curricular and administrative activities to nurture the student's minds and equip them with skills to face the challenges of the real world situations with academic excellence. UGC sponsored Three Day National Conference on “Renewable Energy and Environment” was jointly organized by the Department of Chemistry and Physics during 25th to 27th September, 2014. The main objective of this conference was to provide platform to researches in the field of Physics, Chemistry, Technology, Economics, Commerce, Geography and Environmental sciences to share problems and prospects in the field of energy and environment and to compile intellectual inputs for the sustainable development of our country. Protection of the Environment and Climate, and their preservation is a demanding social, scientific and economical task. Utilization of renewable energy, efficient conversions of fossil fuel are not only environmentally and climatically beneficial, they also preserve the finite energy sources. Awareness of this global issue at the grass root level is the need of the hour. Renewable energy and environment is the subject of global attention. The present scenario between energy generation, consumption and depletion of sources of conventional energy has various impacts on Environment. Conservation of renewable energy sources and protection of environment are the burning issues at the global level. Unless a long term planning is done to handle these issues and make them commercially viable and environment friendly; alternative technologies are developed. The potential of renewable energy sources is enormous as they can in principle meet many times the world’s energy demand. Renewable energy sources such as small hydropower, wind, solar, biomass, and geothermal can provide sustainable energy services, based on the use of routinely available, indigenous resources. I am sure such platforms through national conference will definitely help to promote various academicians, scientist and research students to share and absorb various new ideas which will help our country to overcome fuel crisis and environmental problems.

Book Description
Ensuring optimum ventilation performance is a vital part of building design. Prepared by recognized experts from Europe and the US, and published in association with the International Energy Agency's Air Infiltration and Ventilation Centre (AIVC), this authoritative work provides organized, classified and evaluated information on advances in the key areas of building ventilation, relevant to all building types. Complexities in airflow behaviour, climatic influences, occupancy patterns and pollutant emission characteristics make selecting the most appropriate ventilation strategy especially difficult. Recognizing such complexities, the editors bring together expertise on each key issue. From components to computer tools, this book offers detailed coverage on design, analysis and performance, and is an important and comprehensive publication in this field. Building Ventilation will be an invaluable reference for professionals in the building services industry, architects, researchers (including postgraduate students) studying building service engineering and HVAC, and anyone with a role in energy-efficient building design.

Book Description
The ability of thermal energy storage (TES) systems to facilitate energy savings, renewable energy use and reduce environmental impact has led to a recent resurgence in their interest. The second edition of this book offers up-to-date coverage of recent energy efficient and sustainable technological methods and solutions, covering analysis, design and performance improvement as well as life-cycle costing and assessment. As well as having significantly revised the book for use as a graduate text, the authors address real-life technical and operational problems, enabling the reader to gain an understanding of the fundamental principles and practical applications of thermal energy storage technology. Beginning with a general summary of thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer, this book goes on to discuss practical applications with chapters that include TES systems, environmental impact, energy savings, energy and exergy analyses, numerical modeling and simulation, case studies and new techniques and performance assessment methods.
