Multifunctional building parts Increased solar shares with activated building parts

Abstract

To achieve national and international climate goals, the greenhouse gas emissions from the building sector must be reduced. One option is the use of renewable energies, which must be stored. Building parts with thermal activation have the potential to store heat. As those building parts feature new active energetic functionalities – active heat storage and heating – they are called multifunctional building parts (MBP). To investigate the potential of MBP, a thermal model is deployed and verified. The model is used to examine the influence of the distance between thermal activation and the MBP’s inside.
