    • Cooling of PV panels by natural convection 

      Misiopecki, Cezary; Gustavsen, Arild; Time, Berit (ZEB Project report;6, Research report, 2012)
      Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) is an important source of renewable energy production for Zero Emission Buildings, even in Norwegian climate. In the planned Powerhouse 1 building at Brattøra in Trondheim the idea ...
    • Erfaringer med bygningsintegrerte solfangere i Norge 

      Simonsen, Ingeborg; Time, Berit; Andresen, Inger (ZEB Project report;2, Research report, 2011)
      Hovedmålet til forskningssenteret ”Zero Emission Buildings” ZEB er å utvikle produkter og løsninger som skal gi oss bygninger med null klimagassutslipp knyttet til produksjon, drift og avhending. Skal vi klare dette må ...
    • Kunnskapsstatus – Fuktbufring i materialer og påvirkning på energibehov 

      Asphaug, Silje Kathrin; Time, Berit; Thue, Jan Vincent; Geving, Stig; Gustavsen, Arild; Mathisen, Hans Martin; Uvsløkk, Sivert (ZEB Project report;22, Research report, 2015)
      Det blir hevdet at det kan være et stort potensial for energisparing i bygninger ved å utnytte sorpsjonsvarme i innvendig eksponerte treoverflater. Fuktbufring er en velkjent effekt og dokumentert i en rekke studier langt ...
    • Life Cycle GHG Emissions from a Wooden Load-Bearing Alternative for a ZEB Office Concept
