Experimental analysis of a PCM-Air heat exchanger for building cooling in hot-arid climates (2018)
Conference Proceeding
Zeinelabdein, R., Omer, S., & Gan, G. (2018). Experimental analysis of a PCM-Air heat exchanger for building cooling in hot-arid climates

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.

A comprehensive investigation of using mutual air and water heating in multi-functional DX-SAMHP for moderate cold climate (2018)
Journal Article
Mohamed, E., Riffat, S., Omer, S., & Zeinelabdien, R. (2019). A comprehensive investigation of using mutual air and water heating in multi-functional DX-SAMHP for moderate cold climate. Renewable Energy, 130, 582-600. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2018.06.075

Solar energy assisted heat pump systems (SAHP) have been used in this application. SAHP system with solar collectors and the heat pump are combined into one unit so as to convey the solar energy to the refrigerant. The solar collector is used as the...
