I hadn't noticed you're talking about Europe, they build them stout over there. Switzerland and everywhere. How much do they weigh? How do they heat that municipal pool?
Do the ventilation systems include these: Enthalpy wheel |
I wouldn't know about weight. Double layer (glass and walls) was mandatory since the 70's oil crisis, foaming the gap between walls since the 90's, we now move into floating floors, special coatings and radiation screens and specially designed doors and window frames.
I don't think the weight increased much since. The foam got thicker and denser, maybe.
I did not know about the thermal wheel. Makes me think about Stirling engines, it could be useful there to optimize performance at different RPM by controlling the rotation speed. Our
heat exchangers are typically fixed with fans, controlled by an ECU to optimize comfort at minimal energy use.
