Review of Strategy for Assessing the Thermal Performance of Institutional Building Form in Hot Dry Climates of Nigeria (2019)
Conference Proceeding

Achieving comfortable indoor environment in buildings in hot climates requires enormous amounts of cooling energy specifically if passive design techniques were not considered from the outset of the construction process. For instance, overheating in... Read More about Review of Strategy for Assessing the Thermal Performance of Institutional Building Form in Hot Dry Climates of Nigeria.

A system design for distributed energy generation in low temperature district heating (LTDH) networks (2017)
Conference Proceeding

Project SCENIC (Smart Controlled Energy Networks Integrated in Communities) involves connecting properties at the University of Nottingham’s Creative Energy Homes test site in a community scale, integrated heat and power network. Controls will be dev... Read More about A system design for distributed energy generation in low temperature district heating (LTDH) networks.

Demonstrating a novel configuration of FPSE prototype working at medium temperature range (2016)
Conference Proceeding

Numerous FPSE designs have been demonstrated, tested and maybe commercially produced for different applications since Beale had invented the first design of the FPSE. The proposed design of FPSE is intended to operate at atmosphere pressure and low h... Read More about Demonstrating a novel configuration of FPSE prototype working at medium temperature range.

Experimental investigation of a novel heat pipe and porous ceramic based indirect evaporative cooler (2016)
Conference Proceeding

The paper presents laboratory test results of an integrated heat pipe and ceramic tube based evaporative cooling prototype for air conditioning in buildings. The cooler integrates durable porous ceramic tubes as water saturated media materials and he...
