Synthesis and Characterization of Doped Magnesium Hydroxide for Medium Heat Storage Application (2023)
Journal Article
Albeladi, N., Kur, A., Mokaya, R., Darkwa, J., Roger-Lund, S., Worall, M., …Boukhanouf, R. (2023). Synthesis and Characterization of Doped Magnesium Hydroxide for Medium Heat Storage Application. Materials, 16(18), Article 6296. https://doi.org/10.3390/ma16186296

The amount of waste heat generated annually in the UK exceeds the total annual electricity demand. Hence, it is crucial to effectively harness all available sources of waste heat based on their varying temperatures. Through suitable technologies, a s...

Inter-room pollutant transmission routes in naturally ventilated street canyon buildings (2023)
Journal Article
Mohammadi, M., Calautit, J. K., Owen, J. S., Gromke, C., Wu, Y., & Liu, H. (2023). Inter-room pollutant transmission routes in naturally ventilated street canyon buildings. Journal of Building Engineering, 79, Article 107510. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jobe.2023.107510

Airborne transmission of pollutants is a significant concern in urban areas, especially since the recent pandemic. While previous studies have explored inter-room pollutant crossflow in highrise buildings and isolated scenarios, the ventilation chara...

Fault data seasonal imbalance and insufficiency impacts on data-driven heating, ventilation and air-conditioning fault detection and diagnosis performances for energy-efficient building operations (2023)
Journal Article
Zhong, F., Calautit, J. K., & Wu, Y. (2023). Fault data seasonal imbalance and insufficiency impacts on data-driven heating, ventilation and air-conditioning fault detection and diagnosis performances for energy-efficient building operations. Energy, 282, Article 128180. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.energy.2023.128180

The heating, ventilation and air-conditioning fault impacts vary with different seasonal climatic conditions, but the fault data may not be available under some seasons in real buildings due to the frequency and span of fault occurrences. This study...
