Assessing the indoor air quality of natural-ventilated bedrooms in renovated Norwegian houses using detailed field measurements
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)The objective of this work is to investigate the indoor environment in bedrooms ventilated by window opening during night-time. How window opening behaviour affects indoor air quality (IAQ), and how window opening behaviour ... -
Association between physiological signal from wearable device and alertness of office workers
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Through physiological signals, detecting the changes of occupants' physical and psychological aspects is possible, and wearable devices have enabled measurement in dailylife. In this study, to see whether the wearable ... -
Better building operation, maintenance and well-being in apartments with smart indoor climate meters
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)The justification of energy consumption in dwellings is to maintain comfortable and healthy indoor climate. Sufficient air exchange and comfortable temperatures protect building structures against mould growth caused by ... -
Bubble generated turbulence in two fluid simulation of bubbly flow
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)Bubbly flows are central to many processes in the minerals extraction and metal production industries, mainly because they enhance heat and mass transfer rates. These transfer rates depend on the turbulence level in the ... -
BuildSIM-Nordic 2020. Selected papers. International Conference Organised by IBPSA-Nordic, 13th–14th October 2020, OsloMet
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Book; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2020)Preface. The BuildSim-Nordic 2020 conference is the first in a series of events with a long-term objective to establish a key biannual international conference in building performance simulation, with a strong focus on ... -
Calculation of airflow rate with displacement ventilation in dynamic conditions
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2020)Design of displacement ventilation (DV) is usually based on a heat balance method when overheating is the primary indoor climate concern. Various models for calculating airflow rate have been developed for several decades. ... -
Can we measure buildings' affordance?
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)The term affordance is used in this paper to denote the capacity of buildings to provide occupants the possibility to control the indoor-environmental conditions so as to meet their needs and requirements. This is typically ... -
Can we trust what humans report? – myths and realities
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Human information is crucial for efforts in the field of buildings, health and experiences. Despite this, there is strikingly little focus on how it is created and may be understood. Division between e.g. “subjective”/ ... -
Carbon Capture with Metal Oxides in Molten Salts: MgO, SrO and CaO AS Sorbents
(SINTEF Proceedings;4, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2019)Carbon Capture in Molten Salts (CCMS) is an absorption-based method of separating CO2 from a flue gas or industrial gas through a thermal swing technique, where the sorbent is dissolved or partially dissolved in molten ... -
Carbonate Looping For Intermediate Temperature Co2 Capture: Evaluating The Sorption Efficiency Of Mineral-Based Mgo Promoted With Caco3 And Alkali Nitrates
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)This work focused on enhancing the CO2 capture kinetics of magnesite-derived MgO via alkali nitrate and mineral CaCO3 promoters for its application in the Carbonate Looping technology at intermediate temperatures (≤400°C). ... -
CCS in the European Energy Transition to Climate Neutrality
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)The transition of the European energy system to reach climate neutrality by 2050 will require a development and deployment of technologies capable of decarbonizing the energy system in an unprecedented scale. Increased ... -
CCS Public Perception Learnings Applied to Brazil
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is considered a relevant technology to deal with climate change mitigation. However, the technology is not yet known to the various audiences, be it by the government and legislators, by ... -
CFD APPROACH TO SIMULATE TWO PHASE FLOW INLINE-SEPARATOR COUPLING IBM, LES, LAGRANGIAN TRACKING AND VOF METHODS
