Improving Thermal Performance of Buildings using Smart Inspections and Peltier-driven Heat Recovery (2024)
Thesis
Shariq, M. H. Improving Thermal Performance of Buildings using Smart Inspections and Peltier-driven Heat Recovery. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4860398

Buildings account for 40% of overall carbon emissions in the UK which have significant impacts on the environment. The overconsumption of energy for heating and cooling is primarily caused by thermal leakages due to building defects. Existing techniq...
