Book Description
El Año Internacional de la Luz y las Tecnologías Basadas en Luz 2015 fue una iniciativa global adoptada por las Naciones Unidas. Numerosas organizaciones culturales, académicas, industriales y gubernamentales alrededor del mundo unieron fuerzas para celebrar la luz y crear conciencia sobre las muchas maneras en que la fotónica impacta nuestras vidas en áreas como la energía, educación, cambio climático, salud y bienestar social. De la iniciativa resultaron miles de actividades que involucraron a millones de personas en más de 100 países del mundo. Los temas de este volumen surgieron a lo largo de 2015 como los más relevantes y con mayor interés. Se espera que este libro se convierta en un documento de consulta básica y un legado imborrable.

Energia solar térmica

Languages : es
Pages : 322
Book Description
La energía solar térmica es una opción muy interesante para abastecer de energía a millones de hogares, puesto que permite, por un lado, disminuir nuestra dependencia de los combustibles fósiles y, por otro, reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero responsables del cambio climático. En los últimos años, la energía solar térmica ha experimentado en España un gran desarrollo, pero todavía se halla lejos de los objetivos fijados en el Plan de Energías Renovables (PER), aprobado en agosto de 2005, que plantea alcanzar en el año 2010 una superficie instalada de captadores de 4,9 millones de metros cuadrados. El Código Técnico de la Edificación (CTE) es una de las medidas adoptadas para la consecución de este objetivo, puesto que obliga a instalar sistemas de captación, almacenamiento y utilización de energía solar térmica de baja temperatura en los edificios de cualquier uso de nueva construcción o que se rehabiliten, en los que exista demanda de agua caliente sanitaria o climatización de piscina cubierta. El objeto de este libro es introducir al lector en las instalaciones de energía solar térmica de baja temperatura para uso residencial, haciendo referencia a todos los componentes de la instalación, desde los elementos principales a los elementos de regulación y control, e indicando criterios de diseño, dimensionado y montaje. El lector encontrará que lo descrito en el libro no sólo abarca los aspectos teóricos del tema sino también los prácticos.

Construction and Building Research
Author: Carmen Llinares-Millán
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400777906
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
Many areas of knowledge converge in the building industry and therefore research in this field necessarily involves an interdisciplinary approach. Effective research requires strong relation between a broad variety of scientific and technological domains and more conventional construction or craft processes, while also considering advanced management processes, where all the main actors permanently interact. This publication takes an interdisciplinary approach grouping various studies on the building industry chosen from among the works presented for the 2nd International Conference on Construction and Building Research. The papers examine aspects of materials and building systems; construction technology; energy and sustainability; construction management; heritage, refurbishment and conservation. The information contained within these pages may be of interest to researchers and practitioners in construction and building activities from the academic sphere, as well as public and private sectors.

Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
The Exergy Method of Thermal Plant Analysis aims to discuss the history, related concepts, applications, and development of the Exergy Method - analysis technique that uses the Second Law of Thermodynamics as the basis of evaluation of thermodynamic loss. The book, after an introduction to thermodynamics and its related concepts, covers concepts related to exergy, such as physical and chemical exergy, exergy concepts for a control method and a closed-system analysis, the exergy analysis of simple processes, and the thermocentric applications of exergy. A seven-part appendix is also included. Appendices A-D covers miscellaneous information on exergy, and Appendix E features charts of thermodynamic properties. Appendix F is a glossary of terms, and Appendix G contains the list of references.
