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.
Buildings are energy intensive and contribute to carbon dioxide emissions while accounting for one-third of energy consumption worldwide. Heat pump technology can assist in electrification and decarbonization efforts.
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
Household refrigerators typically consume 1.5–2.0kWh of electricity per day, and more than 100 million refrigerators are used in US homes, resulting in significant primary energy consumption and carbon emissions.
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.
