Solar Seminar Room in the University of Balearic Islands with a New Advanced Radiant System
Abstract
The use of Solar Energy for buildings became more efficient with the combination with radiant systems, for the highest renewable fraction, solar thermal, photovoltaic, geothermal and auxiliary energy with heat pump systems (HP) have been used. The renewable energy is capable to cover all the energy consumption of the year. The net zero energy building needs low embodied energy in the materials with a high insulation. New radiant systems with capillary tube mats and clay in combination with calcium silicate has been used with solar heating and a geothermal system for buildings has been designed to achieve different values of the fraction of a primary energy saving using the Flat Plate Collectors (FPC) for Solar Thermal (ST) and other supply energies like solar photovoltaic (PV) or wind technology, and having the higher efficiency of the system with net zero energy.
