INTRODUCTION
VI.2.1 Biomass
Many different types of fuel can be used but for small-scale domestic
applications of biomass wood pellets, wood chips and wood logs are usually
used.
This option uses solar cells, usually placed on the roof, and made up of layers
of semi conducting material.
Electricity is produced by the wind turning the turbines blades, which then
turns a rotor.
INTRODUCTION
VI.2.4 Geothermal
A few meters down, the soil in maintains a heat of 11-12 °C and by feeding a
coil into the soil and transferring the heat from the ground into a building,
heating and hot water can be produced.

VI.3 Electric heating
In radiant heaters, liquids are used to produce heat and then radiates into

A zero energy building (ZEB) or net zero energy building is a general term
applied to a building's use with zero net energy consumption and zero carbon
emissions annually.
THERMAL COMFORT
I Definition
The best that you can realistically hope to achieve is a thermal environment
that satisfies the majority of people in the workplace, or put more simply,
reasonable comfort.
THERMAL COMFORT
So thermal comfort is not measured by air temperature, but by the number
of employees complaining of thermal discomfort.
1. Air temperature
2. Radiant temperature
3. Air velocity
4. Humidity
5. Clothing Insulation
6. Metabolic heat
THERMAL COMFORT
II.3 Air temperature
Thermal radiation is the heat that radiates from a warm object. Radiant
heat may be present if there are heat sources in an environment.
This describes the speed of air moving across the worker and may help cool
the worker if it is cooler than the environment.
II.6 Humidity
Clothing, by its very nature, interferes with our ability to lose heat to the
environment.

CONDUCTION
I Heat transfer by conduction
The flow of heat by conduction occurs via collisions between atoms and
molecules in the substance and the subsequent transfer of kinetic energy.
In such collisions the faster atoms lose some speed and the slower ones gain
speed; thus, the fast ones transfer some of their kinetic energy to the slow
ones.
This transfer of kinetic energy from the hot to the cold side is called a flow
of heat through conduction.
CONDUCTION
I.1 Conduction in Non-Metals
k • Thermal conductivity
• Temperature gradient
CONDUCTION
This law was obtained from empirical results.
The negative sign comes from the fact that the heat is naturally
transferred from high to low temperatures (negative gradient).

less dense, and rises.

CONVECTION
I.2 Convection in rooms
The convector heater warms the air in contact with it. This becomes less
dense, and rises.
The ceiling forces this air to circulate as shown, warming the air around it.
Finally, when the air has cooled, it falls downwards, completing the cycle.
CONVECTION
I.3 Convection in water
Convection can also lead to circulation in a liquid, as in the heating of a pot
of water over a flame.
Heated water expands and becomes more buoyant. Cooler, denser water
near the surface descends and patterns of circulation can be formed.
