Photovoltaic energy balance estimation based on the building integration level

The photovoltaic module building integration level affects the module temperature and,consequently,its output power.In this work,a methodology has been proposed to estimate the influence of the level of architectural photovoltaic integration on the photovoltaic energy balance with natural ventilation or with forced cooling systems.The developed methodology is applied for five photovoltaic module technologies(m⁃Si,p⁃Si,a⁃Si,CdTe,and CIGS)on four characteristic locations(Athens,Davos,Stockholm,and Würzburg).To this end,a photovoltaic module thermal radiation parameter,PVj,is introduced in the characterization of the PV module technology,rendering the correlations suitable for building⁃integrated photovoltaic(BIPV)applications,with natural ventilation or with forced cooling systems.The results show that PVj has a significant influence on the energy balances,according to the architectural photovoltaic integration and climatic conditions.Keywords:Photovoltaic cooling;BIPV;Photovoltaic;Ventilation;Photovoltaic integration level in building【OA】(2)Graph⁃Based methodology for Multi⁃Scale generation of energy analysis models from IFC,by Asier Mediavilla,Peru Elguezabal,Natalia Lasarte,Article 112795 Abstract:Process digitalisation and automation is unstoppable in all industries,including construction.However,its widespread adoption,even for non⁃experts,demands easy⁃to⁃use tools that reduce technical requirements.BIM to BEM(Building Energy Models)workflows are a clear example,where ad⁃hoc prepared models are needed.This paper describes a methodology,based on graph techniques,to automate it by highly reducing the input BIM requirements found in similar approaches,being applicable to almost any IFC.This is especially relevant in retrofitting,where reality capture tools(e.g.,3D laser scanning,object recognition in drawings)are prone to create geometry clashes and other inconsistencies,posing higher challenges for automation.Another innovation presented is its multi⁃scale nature,efficiently addressing the surroundings impact in the energy model.The application to selected test cases has been successful and further tests are ongoing,considering a higher variety of BIM models in relation to tools and techniques used and model sizes.

Draft Consensus Building in Hall for Workshop of Meta-Synthetic Engineering

This paper discusses that there are two sorts of group consensus in Hall for Workshop of Meta-synthetic Engineering： draft consensus and decisive consensus, which are respectively formed in the two synchronous stages in the process of ＂synchronous stages 1- asynchronous stages- synchronous stages 2＂, and focuses on the concept of draft consensus. Then proposes a draft consensus building model and its solution method called Consensus Building Graph, by which claim concern value, claim support value, claim authority value and claim consensus value can be calculated real time for reaching a consensus, and designs a computer aided consensus building system called Internet based Group Discussion Environment. The model follows the methodology of meta-synthesis from qualitative to quantitative analysis in which computers and humans are combined to solve complex problems.
