The South African SANS 204 and SANS 10400-XA regulate the design of new buildings and current building extensions. In order for this to be regulated properly, building plans must be approved for meeting the standards set out in the SAB regulations (Botes, 2011). The intention of the regulations is to ensure that buildings are built to be more energy efficient by designing them to be well insulated, more resistant to air leakage via windows, doors and ceilings with weak seals. This makes a building
ST Diamond Building is the art of green architecture, combined with the science of energy conservation is showcased in the 4,928 square metres Diamond Building, an iconic 8 storey office building. The Diamond Building is the Energy Commission’s social Commitment to the present and future generations of Malaysia. Taking the lead in developing and implementing solutions for environmental sustainability, the Energy Commission embarked on a bold vision to develop its headquarters in line with highest
everyday business operations that impact the environment such as carbon emissions, energy use, recycling of packaging materials and waste management. The first environment initiative is the Energy and emissions. Myer’s developed an Energy Management Strategy which targets 10 percent reduction in energy use by area and opening hour by 2018. The sites were audited and then were identified to undertake energy efficiency opportunities. This includes upgrading the cooling and heating systems, the management
This project aims to research the impeller of the submersible pump (Model : V4 AL-5535) to increase performance and to improve efficiency by compering different angle of blade using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) validated with experiment. In Computational fluid dynamics different aspects of geometry can be analyzed such as Fluid Flow, Heat Transfer and Chemical Reaction. This research is focused on Flow of the Fluid for three different geometry of impeller. CHEPTER : 1 Introduction
• Reliance on temperature differentials • Design limitations regarding ceiling heights 5.1 PASSIVE DESIGN PERFORMANCE Passive design refers to the use of the sun’s energy for the heating and cooling of living spaces. In this context, the building itself or some element of it takes advantages of natural energy characteristics in materials and air created by exposure to the sun. The importance of passive design is that it can fulfill the thermal comfort, low heating and cooling bills and it also
Electricity is a form of energy which mankind use to power machines and electrical devices. It arrives at our homes and workplaces through wires from the places where it is made. It is used by elecrictical lamps for producing light, electrical heater to produce heat, etc. Electricity is generated in the place called power stations. The sources of energy used to make electricity are either conventional or renewable. Electricity generated by burning of fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum, natural
improve their eco-efficiency and thus its reputation and the sustainability of their business, many companies want to lower their impact on the environment. To help organizations achieve this goal, the CCR identifies, evaluates and documents best environmental management practices
management is set of activities which create value in by transforming the inputs in to out puts. In this paper, we are going to talk about NIKE and learn how it is able to use OM in its day to day operations. We will also look at NIKE’s business strategy, features of their operation and SWOT. NIKE Blue Ribbon Sports was founded in 1964 by Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman. The company was importing and distributing Japanese running shoes. The founders realize while other competitors in the USA were
1892 1900 - Company Background GE is the global leader around the world, began in 1878. When Thomas Dison formed the Edison General Electric (EGEC). Dedicated to innovation in the areas of energy, health, transportation and infrastructure In 1892 Edison General Electric joined to the competitor Thomas Tlouston company to be (GE). The firm defined as an innovation and research and development its working as the invention for house heating,
Morden day boilers come now come in different shapes and sizes and used for different reasons and places. Therefore they will use up a large amount of energy depending on industry or type of service organisations. This report will look and investigate different types and designs of boilers concentrating on how these can be running at the utmost efficiency. Areas to be looked into will include Flue gas temperature, fuel specification and properties, air excess, ambient conditions, radiation and convection
