Solar blinds Semi transparent solar thermal collectors Vacuum tube collectors Titel van de presentatie 2 Introduction Primary energy consumption • 49% of primary energy consumption utilized for space heating • 80% of this lies underneath 250°C, which can be powered by solar thermal systems Titel van de presentatie 3 Introduction Need for refurbishment The EU has an indicative target of 20% improved energy efficiency and binding targets of a 20% use of renewable energy and a 20% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, all by 2020 (EuroACE) Russig 1999 • 2/3rd of office buildings in Western Europe are older than 30 years Ebbert 2010 • Refurbishment of buildings can save up to 75% of energy Titel van de presentatie 4 Introduction Location in focus • Primary focus of study in London (UK) • United Kingdom, Netherlands, Germany with same North Atlantic Oceanic climate United Kingdom Solar irradiance 61° June 22 Sun angle 14° December 22 Titel van de presentatie 5 1. Solar thermal collectors Titel van de presentatie 6 Solar thermal collectors Solar thermal energy • Trap incident solar heat radiation, in a storable and usable medium, for generation of consumable form of energy. • Usage: Titel van de presentatie 7 Solar thermal collectors Vacuum tube collectors • Double glass tubes with vacuum created between the glass layers, reducing conduction & convection heat loss • Efficiency of the entire collector unit of the order or 40 to 60%. • Medium temperature heating (75°C - 150°C) Direct flow vacuum tube collectors Heat pipe Air vacuum tube collectors Titel van de presentatie 8 Solar thermal collectors Space cooling • Use of heat energy for the production of chiller water using Sorption Chillers used in building HVAC systems. • Green, clean and free energy Direct Fired Lithium Bromide Absorption Chiller Titel van de presentatie 9 State of the art of solar thermal collector Titel van de presentatie 10 Solar thermal collectors Space cooling • Sorption chillers have very low efficiency. So need a lot of energy for production of chilled water • Roof area of high rise not enough to provide hot water needed for space cooling • Façade become the only option for large scale integration of solar thermal collectors Titel van de presentatie 11 2. Collector facade Titel van de presentatie 12 Collector facade Unitized facade • Unitized façade are a type of curtain wall façade which consists of a single structural frame on to which any in-fill elements can be added to make up a unit. • Unitized elements are hung from horizontal cleats installed on the main structural system of the building • Unitized elements are hung from bottom up, interlocking every element with the one above it with the help of a tongue and groove setting Titel van de presentatie 13 Collector facade Unitized façade + & 1. Very high efficiency 2. State of the art technology 3. Integration of Building service components 4. Low labour and fast assembly at site 5. Accuracy and perfection owing to factory production 6. Longer life span 7. Ease of replacement and repair of units 8. Ease of maintenance 9. Cost effective in large scale production 10. Modern and trendy with huge design possibilities 11. Custom made identity to building 1. Transportation of units from factory to site 2. Scale of the project: too costly for small buildings 3. If material is damaged during transportation, might lead not only the replacement of the material, but possibly entails re-manufacturing of the entire element.

High rise office façade Refurbishment Titel van de presentatie 27 Collector Refurbishment Façade typologies • Dr.-Ing. Thiemo Ebbert, a PhD researcher from TU Delft, dealt with the technical refurbishment of Western European post-war office facades. EU backed project, co-ordinated by Fraunhofer Institute for Solare Energie Systeme ISE, in partnership with 23 other organisations and companies, in which Permasteelisa Group a partner. Titel van de presentatie 28 Collector Refurbishment Re-face Façade typology • Classification of office façade typologies based on 3 identified characters. • 22 façade typologies in total • Focus of study in the countries of Unitied Kingdom (UK), Netherlands (NL) and Germany (GER) Titel van de presentatie 29 Collector Refurbishment Cost-Effective project • Identified 5 façade categories • Categories ranked based on their energy consuming Titel van de presentatie 30 Collector Refurbishment Identified high rise façade typologies 3 Façade typologies identified based on the structural nature of existing façade. • Typology 1 : Presence of planar load bearing elements such as massive concrete parapets and beam projection in building facade • Typology 2: Skeletal structure, façades with just floor slab and column, without the presence of any planar elements • Typology 3: ‘Parapet + window’ façade typology having pre-cast non load bearing parapets attached to floor slab of buildings.

Titel van de presentatie 45 Collector Refurbishment Typology 3 –Parapet + Window facade • Pre case non load bearing concrete parapet attached to the floor slab •They cannot be loaded with any utilizable façade as refurbishment •Therefore Parapet collector units are only possible Bielefeld University Bielefeld (GER) Titel van de presentatie 46 4. Conclusion Titel van de presentatie 47 Titel van de presentatie 48 General conclusion • Solar thermal collector systems integrated inside unitized facades, provide immense possibilities for design innovation. • Production of these units, being done in a factory line, provides space for design detailing without any compromise on their quality. • Collector facade systems designed to harness solar thermal energy, become effective energy generation options only when designed with various integrated concepts • the aspect of facade radiation is of at most concern at this point of time, which has to be corrected before realization of collector facades. •Collector facades refurbishment of buildings on a whole depends on the nature of facade to be refurbished. Unitized facades being a type of Curtain wall facade are ideal refurbishment solutions for buildings initially designed for such facade systems. Titel van de presentatie 49
