空气质量自动监测站房空调节能技术设计与实现

空气质量自动监测仪的正常使用温度为5℃~30℃,在中国北方地区使用要特别注意寒冷季节的防冻及酷热季节降温通风问题。为确保自动监测仪器的长期正常运转,发挥仪器的作用,在监测站房内冬季都配备取暖设施、夏季配备大功率空调。本研究充分利用自然环境资源,采用了引排风节能系统与空调联动控制技术,将室外的冷空气引入监测站房内给监测设备强制降温,排出室内热空气。有效地解决了冬季监测站房内温度过高的问题,减少了设备的故障率,使空调不必全年不停运行,每天可降低空调使用时间达10小时以上,节省了大量的电能。     

Improving the thermal performance of single-glazed windows using translucent granular aerogel

Cost-effective materials, products and installation methods are required to improve the energy efficiency of the UK's existing building stock. The aim of this paper is to assess the potential for high-performance translucent granular aerogel insulation to be retrofitted over single glazing to reduce heat loss without blocking out all of the useful natural light. In situ testing of a 10-mm-thick prototype panel, consisting of a clear twin-wall polycarbonate sheet filled with granular aerogel, was carried out and validated with steady-state calculations. Results demonstrate that an 80% reduction in heat loss can be achieved without detrimental reductions in light transmission. Payback calculations accounting for the inevitable thermal bridging from openable solutions such as roller shutters or pop-in secondary glazing suggest that a return on investment between 3.5 and 9.5 years is possible if products are consistently used over the heating season. Granular aerogel is a promising material for improving the thermal performance of existing windows. Future research will seek to map out different ways in which the material can be applied to the existing UK housing stock, identifying which systems offer the greatest potential for widespread CO₂ savings over their life cycle.
