EXPERIMENTAL DATA AND SIMULATIONS OF PERFORMANCE AND THERMAL COMFORT IN A PATIENT ROOM EQUIPPED WITH RADIANT CEILING PANELS

Experimental Data and Simulations of Performance and Thermal Comfort in a Patient Room Equipped with Radiant Ceiling Panels

Hospitals require the highest energy demands in non-residential buildings.They provide healthcare 24/7/365 and, at the same time, they ensure indoor air quality, thermal comfort and sterility.However, several studies reveal that high indoor temperatures and low relative humidity (RH) are often perceived in patient rooms during the heating season, s

Optimizing and Comparing Ultrasound- and Microwave-Assisted Extraction Methods Applied to the Extraction of Antioxidant Capsinoids in Peppers

Capsinoids are very similar antioxidant compounds to capsaicinoids, but less irritating, non-pungent and more palatable, and can thus be used in greater concentrations for food applications.To date, three capsinoids (capsiate, dihydrocapsiate, and nordihydrocapsiate) have been isolated from the pepper fruits.Due to its substantial commercial import
