Solar Decathlon 2014

Solar Decathlon Europe is an international competition among universities which promotes research in the development of efficient houses. The objective of the participating teams is to design and build houses that consume as few natural resources as possible and produce minimum waste products during their life cycle. Particular emphasis is put on reducing energy consumption and on obtaining all the necessary energy from the sun.

Heating Ventilating Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems have to ensure clean air and to maintain comfortable conditions for their users as in the industrialised countries people spend up to 90% of their time indoors. The reduced air mass fluxes being introduced in the occupied zone, should uniformly distribute fresh air and conditioning cooling or heating loads in order to achieve thermal comfort and acceptable air quality.

Thus, innovative diffusers should be designed to improve mixing. In this context, an innovative air diffuser has to generate a strong induction, particularly in the initial region of the cold or hot air jet.the answer for achieving better air quality and improving thermal comfort is residing in developing innovative air diffusers and terminal air units, as well as air diffusion strategies. In the same time, implementing such strategies requires to integrate and to improve the available advanced measuring techniques according to the specific conditions for qualifying the studied indoor ambiances.

One of our objectives is to conceive an advanced thermal manikin prototype which would be able not only to simulate the human body and measure quantities like thermal fluxes exchanged with its environment but to adapt its thermal response as a function of the environmental stimuli. Our idea is to improve our first prototype into a sophisticate 35-body segments thermal manikin (New Thermal Boy) including important body parts like ankles, wrists, and back part of the neck and use a control algorithm which reposing on a thermoregulatory model.

One of the goals of the project being to implement a simulating respiratory device into the mouth of the New Thermal Boy transforming it also in a breathing manikin. Once this powerful tool that we want to develop will be functional, we will test several combinations of innovative air diffusers and air diffusion strategies in terms of capability of improving thermal comfort and indoor air quality.
