Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestigating the Dynamic Thermal Behavior of Building Envelope in Summer Conditions By Means of in-Field Continuous MonitoringAnna Laura Pisello, Gloria Pignatta, Cristina Piselli et al.The effect of dynamic properties of building opaque envelope in summer conditions is investigated by means of an extensive continuous monitoring of a dedicated experimental field. Two test-buildings, a weather station and two microclimate stations positioned in each test-building represent the experimental field. The prototype buildings have been specifically designed to present the same stationary envelope properties, but different construction … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 25 Apr 2016 · 8,562 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGetting an Alternative Pitch Binder by Thermal Dissolution of CoalPeter Nikolayevich Kuznetsov, Elena Nikolaevna Marakushina, Anastasia Valerievna Kazbanova et al.The process of thermal dissolution of medium metamorphosed coals in anthracene oil to produce an alternative pitch binder was studied. The process was carried out at temperatures from 350 to 400°C and pressure not higher than 2.5 MPa, without the use of hydrogen and catalysts. It was determined that during thermal dissolution hard coal of gaseous-fat grade demonstrated a higher … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2016 · 8,140 accessesView PDFCite
