2. • Evaluation of a Direct Evaporative Roof-Spray Cooling System
• Direct evaporative roof spray cooling systems are widely used in both
industrial and commercial
• buildings to reduce air-conditioning costs.Roof spray cooling is a simple and
fundamental process; the
• basic idea is to wet the hot surface and cool it with sprayed water. The main
goal is to keep heat out
• and reduce cooling costs in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
Roof-spray cooling
• systems are used to reduce the heat flux entering through the roof of a
building

3. • Sound Insulation in Buildings
• Sound insulation is a kind of measure to prevent the sound waves
from permeating. Sound insulation
• is designed to reduce the transfer of noise inside and outside your
home. Sound insulation can be
• applied to walls, floors and ceilings to soundproof against unwanted
noise.

4. • Photovoltaic System
• A photovoltaic (PV) system is made up of one or more solar panels, an
inverter, and other mechanical
• and electrical components that harness solar energy to produce
electricity. The solar panel in a solar
• PV system receives sunlight and transforms the incident photons into
electrical energy. A photovoltaic
• system can be mounted on the ground, on the building's façade, or
on the roof.

5. • Geothermal Energy
• Geothermal energy is used to produce electricity, to heat buildings
and greenhouses, and for other
• purposes. Geothermal energy is inexpensive and can run all year long
at high capacity factors. This
• enables it to supply stable, dispatchable electricity to the electricity
system as well as supplementary
• services, if rewarded. By utilizing the temperature variations between
the surface and below the
• ground, geothermal energy can also be used for heating and cooling.

6. • Thermal Comfort
• Thermal comfort is defined as the state of being neither too hot nor
too cold in one's surroundings.
• Thermal comfort is commonly used in windows and walls to prevent
cold or hot temperatures from
• entering the building. Thermal comfort optimization can assist
building managers in lowering energy
• consumption and costs. This can be used to improve modern
buildings' indoor comfort, enhance their
• energy efficiency, and minimize energy use.
