Experimental characterisation of hygrothermal properties of a 3D printed cement...
Pessoa, Sofia; Jesus, Manuel; Guimarães, Ana S.; Lucas, Sandra S.; Simões, Nuno3D printing (3DP) presents great potential for automation, sustainability, and quality control in the construction sector. However, research on 3DP in Construction has been carried out primarily from a structural standpoint, and information on the thermal performance, comfort and energy efficiency of these solutions remains very limited. Given the importance of assessing how printed walls perform when subjected...
Properties of lime based thermal mortars
Lucas, Sandra S.; Cunha, Sandra Raquel Leite; Rucek, Martin; Aguiar, J. L. Barroso de; Ferreira, V. M.; Bragança, L.[Excerpt] Nowadays, major part of residential buildings electricity consumption is used for space heating and cooling, varying greatly during day and night and leading to differentiate tariffs. The shift, to off-peak periods, of this consumption presents a clear economical advantage and it can be achieved through energy thermal storage. Latent heat thermal energy storage, through the incorporation of PCM, prese...
Argamassas térmicas à base de cal
Lucas, Sandra S.; Cunha, Sandra Raquel Leite; Rucek, Martin; Aguiar, J. L. Barroso de; Ferreira, Victor S.; Bragança, L.Actualmente, as preocupações com o consumo energético dos edifícios são cada vez maiores. Surgindo desta forma, a necessidade de incorporação de materiais em produtos de construção que visem a melhoria da eficiência energética dos edifícios. Portanto, a utilização de materiais de mudança de fase surge como uma possível solução para tentar solucionar, ou pelo menos minimizar, os enormes consumos energéticos asso...
