Study of Heat Conduction on Thermo-active Building System With the Floor-mounted Water Panel

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: In recent years, Thermally Activated Building Systems (TABS), which utilize the thermal mass of building structures, are gaining attention. Traditional TABS uses piping embedded in the concrete slab. That makes difficulty to maintain building for long term due to the inaccessible piping, and refurbishment possibly causes a damage on the structure. To solve this problem, we have developed TABS using floor-mounted cold and hot water panels. In this study, heat conduction around the panels is represented in detail based on the measurements. We confirmed that presented TABS system has shown similar figure to reference data of traditional TABS method.
