  2. Twinwall plastic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twinwall_plastic

    Twin-wall plastic, specifically twin-wall polycarbonate, is an extruded multi-wall polymer product created for applications where its strength, thermally insulative properties, and moderate cost are ideal. [1] Polycarbonate, which is most commonly formed through the reaction of Bisphenol A and Carbonyl Chloride, is an extremely versatile material.

  3. Passive solar building design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_solar_building_design

    In passive solar building design, windows, walls, and floors are made to collect, store, reflect, and distribute solar energy, in the form of heat in the winter and reject solar heat in the summer. This is called passive solar design because, unlike active solar heating systems, it does not involve the use of mechanical and electrical devices.

  4. Trombe wall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trombe_wall

    Trombe wall. A Trombe wall is a massive equator-facing wall that is painted a dark color in order to absorb thermal energy from incident sunlight and covered with a glass on the outside with an insulating air-gap between the wall and the glaze. A Trombe wall is a passive solar building design strategy that adopts the concept of indirect-gain ...

  5. Passive daytime radiative cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_daytime_radiative...

    Since silicon solar cells have a maximum efficiency of 33.7% (with the average commercial panel reaching around 20%), the majority of absorbed power produces excess heat and increases the operating temperature. [15] [76] Solar cell efficiency declines 0.4-0.5% for every 1 áµ’C increase in temperature. [15]

  6. Polycarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate

    Polycarbonate. Polycarbonates (PC) are a group of thermoplastic polymers containing carbonate groups in their chemical structures. Polycarbonates used in engineering are strong, tough materials, and some grades are optically transparent. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these properties, polycarbonates find many ...

  7. Building-integrated photovoltaics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building-integrated...

    Building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) are photovoltaic materials that are used to replace conventional building materials in parts of the building envelope such as the roof, skylights, or façades. [1] They are increasingly being incorporated into the construction of new buildings as a principal or ancillary source of electrical power ...
