Dynamic insulation is a promising approach that allows the heat transmission rate through
building envelopes to vary in a controlled manner over time. Dynamic insulation's primary …

Air leakage through the building envelope into the building interiors has a considerable
impact on the energy loads and consequently energy demand and energy costs of …

This paper considers supplementary heating and cooling within timber frame houses. The
transmission of solar energy to an internal concrete cavity wall by air is analyzed. The …

In harsh climates like Iraq, characterized by extreme temperatures and energy shortages,
dynamic insulation technology holds great potential to significantly reduce energy …

Air-permeable building envelopes (APBEs) utilize the infiltrated or exfiltrated airflow within
porous materials to directly change their temperature distribution to reduce heat loss/gain …

Buildings in the United States consume about 40 quadrillion BTU of primary energy
annually, which accounts for the nation's 40% of total energy use, 75% of all electricity use …

Integrating phase change materials (PCMs) in building envelopes is a recognized technique
to reduce the space heating/cooling loads and provide load shedding and shifting capacity …

Three building components exposed to natural climate were studied: a dynamic insulation in
the ceiling of a house, an outer wall and one window in the same wall. The term dynamic …
