5. Discussion and Conclusions
5.3 Future work
Potential future work in terms of measurements would be to install temperature and heat flux sensors at the 2nd floor (6 m height) of the pilot project to investigate the influence of the higher cavity temperature on the inwards heat flux during the summer period. Also, additional HDR imaging and glare analysis could be conducted with more viewing angles and outdoor weather conditions. In addition, more airflow measurement or smoke visualizations with smoke tubes could potentially be performed during the summer to get a better idea of the whole (complex) airflow behaviour in the cavity. Another possibility would be to conduct a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) study of the Lumiduct DSF to get a better idea of the airflow and temperature distribution within the cavity. Ideally, measurements could also be conducted for an office building with a wider Lumiduct façade and intermediate floors as this might give different results than the stairwell of the pilot project.
In terms of simulations, a more detailed calibration could be done with on-site weather data as well as taking into account the cover factor and hemispherical transmittance of the CPV modules. Also annual parametric simulations could be performed with different geometry models (higher or wider facade) and different design parameters such as improving the control strategy for temperature controlled ventilation. Also the energy savings by pre-heating the HVAC system or the interior directly could be simulated/calculated for different cases.
