  • The Solar Updraft Tower : Das Aufwindkraftwerk Motivation and Concept - Text
    The Solar Updraft Tower : Das Aufwindkraftwerk Motivation and Concept - Text Joerg Schlaich and Rudolf Bergermann The most significant problems of our time, poverty in the Third World and the climate change are interlinked through energy supply and can be solved, if we only want to! The industrialized countries pollute the worldwide climate with their fossil-fuelled power generation. The poor are poor because they cannot afford sufficient energy supply and the population keeps growing. (Fig. 1) If the billions of people who must do without sufficient energy supply would have to cover their energy needs with coal, oil and gas, the climate could not be saved and the environment would be destroyed. Hence, poverty and climate problems can only be solved with global concepts, mutually and equally beneficial to the poor and to the industrialized countries. The poor countries on the „southern hemisphere“, especially the African, have one advantage over the rich countries in the „northern hemisphere“: Sun + Desert, i.e. intensive solar radiation on agriculturally futile land. (Fig. 2) If these poor countries had large scale affordable solar power plants, - affordable because they were built mainly with their own resources and skills -, and which they did not need to import at exorbitant cost, they would profit twice: by their inexhaustible, affordable power supply and by innumerable new jobs. “The Taliban aren’t fighting for religion but for money. If they had jobs, they would stop fighting!” Sham Sher Khan from TIME, April 20, 2009 As electric energy can be transported over very large distances with surprisingly little loss they could export their solar electricity to the industrialized countries.

The case studies will outline the assessment of the causes of the collapses and a discussion of design and/or construction defects. A review of limited and highly lacking documentation on design, construction and code requirements governing the architectural and structural “design” and construction of residential chimneys will be conducted. The paper will provide a discussion of the lack of design standards and poor construction practices used for residential load-bearing masonry chimneys. This paper will illustrate how the lack of design, construction, and code requirements results in chimneys lacking sufficient capacity to resist below design wind loads leading to unsafe conditions. It is only a matter of time before the collapse of one of these elevated masonry chimney “missiles” results in severe injury or death of an inhabitant. Introduction The majority of residential structures being built throughout the country today rely on construction requirements outlined within the International Residential Code (IRC).

Doerfler, Associate Department Head COMMITTEE MEMBER: Jacob Feldman, Professor iii WIND-CHIMNEY Integrating the principles of a wind-catcher and a solar chimney to provide natural ventilation Fereshteh Tavakolinia Abstract This paper suggests using a wind-catcher integrated with a solar-chimney in a single story building so that the resident might benefit from natural ventilation, a passive cooling system, and heating strategies; it would also help to decrease energy use, CO2 emissions, and pollution. This system is able to remove undesirable interior heat pollution from a building and provide thermal comfort for the occupant. The present study introduces the use of a solar-chimney with an underground air channel combined with a wind-catcher, all as part of one device. Both the wind-catcher and solar chimney concepts used for improving a room’s natural ventilation are individually and analytically studied. This paper shows that the solar-chimney can be completely used to control and improve the underground cooling system during the day without any electricity.

Received: 3 September 2019; Accepted: 24 September 2019; Published: 16 October 2019 Abstract: In Malaysia, terraced housing hardly provides thermal comfort to the occupants. More often than not, mechanical cooling, which is an energy consuming component, contributes to outdoor heat dissipation that leads to an urban heat island effect. Alternatively, encouraging natural ventilation can eliminate heat from the indoor environment. Unfortunately, with static outdoor air conditioning and lack of windows in terraced houses, the conventional ventilation technique does not work well, even for houses with an air well. Hence, this research investigated ways to maximize natural ventilation in terraced housing by exploring the air well configurations.

  • Don't Let Dollars Disappear up Your Chimney!
    ENERGY SAVINGTIPS DON’T LET DOLLARS DISAPPEAR UP YOUR CHIMNEY! You wouldn’t leave a window wide open in cold weather. Having a fireplace with an open flue damper is the same as having a window open. That sends precious winter heat and money right up the chimney! Here’s how you can heat your home, and not the neighborhood! KEEP THE FIREPLACE DAMPER CLOSED WHEN THE FIREPLACE IS NOT BEING USED The damper is a flap inside the chimney or flue. It has an open and a closed position. When a fire is burning, the damper should be in the open position to allow smoke to escape up the fireplace flue and out the chimney. When you’re not using the fireplace, the damper should be closed. If you can’t see the handle or chain that opens and closes the damper, use a flashlight and look up inside the chimney flue. The handle could be a lever that moves side to side or back and forth. If a chain operates the damper, you may have to pull both sides to determine which one closes or opens the damper. KEEP YOUR HEAT IN YOUR HOME! Even the most energy efficient homes can fall victim to fireplace air leaks. Your fireplace may be reserved for a handful of special occasions or especially cold nights. When it’s not in use, though, your home loses heat – and costs you money – without you knowing it. Using the heat from your fireplace on a cold winter night may be cozy, but that fire is a very inefficient way to warm up the room.

Evolution in the endovascular era has influenced the management of aortic arch pathologies. “Chimney” or “snorkel” graft technique has been used as an alternative in high risk patients unfit for open repair. We reviewed the published literature on the chimney graft technique for preservation of the supra-aortic branches in order to provide an extensive insight of its feasibility and efficacy and investigate its outcomes. 18 reports were identified, with a total of 124 patients and 136 chimney. Primary technical success was achieved in 123/124 patients (99.2%). The perioperative mortality rate was 4.8% and the stroke rate was 4%, while events of spinal cord ischemia were rare. The overall endoleak rate was 18.5%; 13 patients (10.5%) developed a type I endoleak and 10 (8%) patients a type II endoleak. During a median follow-up period of 11.4 months (range, 0.87-20.1 months) all implanted chimney grafts remained patent.

At times they can create positive pressure in the venting system. A venting system designed for a fossil fuel boiler, but used with a biomass boiler, may not prevent leakage of combustion products. A properly designed vent connector and chimney can reduce the potential leakage. This webinar discusses the issues and hardware necessary to create a proper venting system for biomass boilers based on field experience with pellet-fired boiler and cordwood gasification boilers. Learning Objectives: 1. Explain the effects associated with positive vent pressure. 2. Understand differences between vent connector piping options. 3. Understand advantages of UL-103HT chimney systems. cap 4. Understand the limitations of exterior masonry chimneys in cold climates.

  • Finish Wood Burning Sauna Instructions
    Finish Wood Burning Sauna Instructions: When it is cold, plan to start the sauna 2 – 3 hours before you want to use it. To start a fire, ● open the ash pan door for max air when starting. This is only to get the fire going. Do not burn with the ash pan door open for long periods because the stove will overheat. ● open the air controller by moving the lever to the full up position and ● make sure that the flu damper is open. ● Use kindling from the wood box in the changing room. Put a lit fire starter on top of the kindling. These are made of paraffin and saw dust. As they burn, the paraffin drips onto the wood. They are very effective and one will usually do the trick. ● Stack smaller pieces of dry firewood over the kindling. ● Close the fire box door. Note: close the fire box door lightly because the stove will expand as it heats up making it damn difficult to open the door. This needs to be adjusted … ● Usually, within 5 - 10 minutes, you have a good fire going. At that point, close the ash pan door, adjust the draft lever arm to normal burn position (see diagram) and close the flu damper. IMPORTANT: do not leave the ash pan door open or the stove will overheat. ​ ● Once, you have a good fire going, fill the fire box with bigger sticks of firewood and close the door. ● The stove is hot during operation. Use the fire gloves and be careful of touching hot surfaces.

  • CHIMNEYS Buildings That Are Rehabilitated Should Have Their Chimney and Chimney Tops Restored. Removal of Chimneys Is Not Permi
    CHIMNEYS Buildings that are rehabilitated should have their chimney and chimney tops restored. Removal of chimneys is not permitted. Chimney tops were often decorative as well as watertight. Chimney pots were of pottery and were used on later buildings. The long axes of chimneys were usually parallel to the side walls and perpendicular to the front walls of buildings. Rooftop treatments which conceal the flue must be provided for all "prefab" metal fireplace chimneys. 7. LOGGIAS In Creole style houses, the loggia is a key architectural element. A loggia is defined as "an open, arcaded area", usually on the first floor at the end of a passageway or porte- cochere in Creole townhouses and at the center rear of Creole cottages. It is often the area where the stair to the upper floors is located. Loggias were always covered (under the main roof) and were traditionally open, while the areas directly above them on the upper floors of Creole townhouses were often shuttered or glazed. Loggias which have not been enclosed shall remain open. 5. VENTS A. Vents on buildings allowed air to flow under the raised wooden first floor to reduce dampness and discourage termites. Early vents were created with simple vertical bars or openings in brick patterns. After 1850, cast iron vents of a more decorative nature were used. B. Vents were used to ventilate attic spaces and decorate soffits of roof overhangs. Sheet metal attic vents, some cylindrical with ornate caps on roof ridges and triangular louvered type on roof slopes, are usually only found on late 19th and early 20th century buildings.
