Seminar 23 -- Cutting-Edge Japanese Technologies for Zero-Energy Buildings (Part 2) PDF

This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker, PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3 format) as noted.

This session presents the new HVAC technologies employed for ZEBs (Zero-Energy Buildings) in Japan. The heat pump and the fuel cell are the key technologies for ZEBs. Directly embedding the adsorbent on the surface of the air-to-refrigerant heat exchanger for direct heating and direct cooling enables this system to regenerate the adsorbent at the condensation temperature of the heat pump (around 40°C). Japanese manufacturers started selling polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) for CHPs in 2009. The newly developed solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) for CHPs, which have a power efficiency of over 45%, are also explained.
