Performance evaluation of well-insulated versions of contemporary wall systems—A case study of London for a warmer climate (2017)
Journal Article
Sajjadian, S. M. (2017). Performance evaluation of well-insulated versions of contemporary wall systems—A case study of London for a warmer climate. Buildings, 7(1), Article 6. https://doi.org/10.3390/buildings7010006

Climate change and its consequences are of a great concern and the likely increasing temperature would add more dilemmas for the choice of passive design options. The performance of building envelopes is one of the key determinants of energy use and...

Dynamic modelling of solar storage system: a case study of leisure centre (2016)
Journal Article
Sajjadian, S. M. (2016). Dynamic modelling of solar storage system: a case study of leisure centre. Smart and Sustainable Built Environment, 5(2), 165-175. https://doi.org/10.1108/SASBE-09-2015-0028

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present the advantages of a solar store system with transpired solar air collector (TSC) in North Wales, UK. The collectors are designed as a proposal to meet the target of the solar air storage and heating pr... Read More about Dynamic modelling of solar storage system: a case study of leisure centre.

The potential of phase change materials to reduce domestic cooling energy loads for current and future UK climates (2015)
Journal Article
Sajjadian, S. M., Lewis, J., & Sharples, S. (2015). The potential of phase change materials to reduce domestic cooling energy loads for current and future UK climates. Energy and Buildings, 93, 83-89. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2015.02.029

Phase change materials (PCM) are known as an effective technology to store larger amounts of thermal energy per unit mass than conventional thermal mass building materials such as concrete and stone. They add thermal stability to lightweight construc... Read More about The potential of phase change materials to reduce domestic cooling energy loads for current and future UK climates.
