Experimental analysis of a PCM-Air heat exchanger for building cooling in hot-arid climates (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zeinelabdein, R., Omer, S., & Gan, G. (2018, August). Experimental analysis of a PCM-Air heat exchanger for building cooling in hot-arid climates. Presented at 17th International Conference on Sustainable Energy Technologies (SET 2018), Wuhan, China

The use of phase change materials as energy storage of cooling during the night-time to be retrieved during the hot daytime is one of the sustainable strategies for cooling buildings. In the present work, a modular PCM-air heat exchanger appropriate... Read More about Experimental analysis of a PCM-Air heat exchanger for building cooling in hot-arid climates.

Feasibility of double-skin façades for multi-storeys office buildings in Amman/Jordan: an insight into thermal performance for both summer and winter peak conditions (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Amaireh, I., Gan, G., Omer, S., & Zeinelabdein, R. Feasibility of double-skin façades for multi-storeys office buildings in Amman/Jordan: an insight into thermal performance for both summer and winter peak conditions. Presented at 16th International Conference on Sustainable Energy Technologies (SET2017)

Amman, the capital city of Jordan, usually experiences a hot dry summer with high solar radiations and a cold-wet winter. While the entire state of Jordan faces serious shortages in energy sources, significant growth in both industrial investment and...

Free cooling based phase change material for domestic buildings in hot arid climate (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Zeinelabdein, R., Omer, S., Mohamed, E., Amaireh, I., & Gan, G. Free cooling based phase change material for domestic buildings in hot arid climate. Presented at 16th International Conference on Sustainable Energy Technologies (SET 2017)

Free cooling based phase change materials (FCPCM) are promising sustainable technologies which could be used to store the cold energy available during summer nights in a sufficient latent heat storage for later utilisation during the daytime. This cu... Read More about Free cooling based phase change material for domestic buildings in hot arid climate.

Dynamic thermal simulation of ground heat exchangers for renewable heating of buildings (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gan, G. Dynamic thermal simulation of ground heat exchangers for renewable heating of buildings. Presented at International Symposium of Heat Transfer and Heat Powered Cycle 2016

The temperature of deep soil is relatively stable throughout a year and the thermal energy stored in soil can be used to provide renewable heat or coolth for a building. A ground heat exchanger is required to transfer heat between the fluid in the he... Read More about Dynamic thermal simulation of ground heat exchangers for renewable heating of buildings.
