HC HVAC & R Network Conventional air conditioning is not green enough Environmental protection ? Can make buildings with automatic thermostat function? In China at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo, the case of Alsace from France gives a definite answer.
Located in Puxi Expo "Urban Best Practice Area" corner of the museum case of Alsace, was covered with greenery, but this building is not green wall the latest odd, but "solar water curtain wall." "Wall" consists of three levels, with outer surface of solar panels and the first layer of glass, the middle layer is closed cabin, the third layer of glass for the water curtain.
France Alsace architectural design agencies in China Chief Representative Fan Long, Alsace is also the chief designer of China's Case Center. She said water screen display of a solar wall building itself has a climate regulation mechanism, especially for hot summer and cold winter areas.
Solar water curtain wall running the winter, closed cabin close exposure to the outer wall of the photovoltaic solar energy conversion into electricity board. By solar radiation and heat generated by photovoltaic panels, remain in the closed space between two layers of glass, the air is warm, can continue to give room Heating .
According to Fan Long introduced the prototype case of Alsace in France Kerswell secondary sun wall, where it is mainly used in winter heating. However, considering the hot and humid summer climate of Shanghai features, this into the "Urban Best Practice Area" of the case features added to the summer.
Summer solar water wall run, closed cabin opens. Closed cabin air and along the facade curtain of water flowing down connected to the wall with solar generated shadow play to the building cooling effect.
Fan Long said that the principle of using solar water wall can reduce the indoor temperature in summer, in winter to supplement the indoor temperature, greatly reducing reliance on air conditioning.
"Currently, the biggest energy consumption in buildings is the use of air conditioning, how to minimize energy consumption, low-carbon economy is of concern to us." Fan Long stressed.
"Our design team's ultimate goal is to allow people to gradually get rid of dependence on air conditioning, use of environmental technology Dongnuanxialiang the power to live a life, which the World Expo City, Better Life happens to coincide with the theme. "she said. Alsace
many Chinese are still relatively new to the audience. The capital of the Alsace region and the European Parliament in Strasbourg is the seat of the European Commission. The Expo Hall will undoubtedly be the case for further understanding of the Chinese audience a window of Alsace.
