The invention addresses the long-standing challenge of inorganic phase change materials use in buildings envelope and other applications by encapsulating them in a secondary sheath.
Concrete floor slab flatness and levelness are parameters often specified in construction documents that contractors must meet to ensure a high quality of construction. However, the measurement of these parameters is cumbersome and time-consuming.
Making existing buildings more airtight is critical in reducing the nation's energy consumption and carbon output. Most current methods of locating building leakage sites are disruptive to occupants and none of the methods can measure the flow of individual leakage sites.
Nearly all electrochemical approaches to CO2 conversion rely on traditional fuel cell type electrocatalysis where CO2 is bubbled through acidic or basic media. The resulting electrochemistry leads to excessive generation of H2 over micromoles of CO2 conversion.
This invention provides a method for differentiating if the cell is failing due to chemical/mechanical factors or due to Li dendrite formation by combing high throughput electronic measurement recording with fast data analysis to monitor the change of battery performance at th
Building Science Advisor is a web-based tool that allows users to quickly and reliably evaluate the moisture durability of their building wall designs and select the most energy-efficient and moisture-safe design.
Technologies for optimizing prefab retrofit panel installation using a real-time evaluator is described.
An efficient, eco-friendly metal extraction using ultrasonic leaching, ideal for lithium and magnesium recovery from minerals and waste.
This solid-state thermal switch can significantly increase the functions of the thermal mass in buildings by actively controlling the thermal resistivity of insulation layers to optimize the energy storage and utilization to shed, shift, and shape HVAC loads on demand.
