Ihtisham-ul-haq Gillani Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS Bandar Seri Iskandar 31750 Tronoh Perak Darul Ridzuan ABSTRACT In this new era‚ energy conservation is the main concern. Thermal comfort is the condition of mind that expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment. Unnecessary air condition of heating for thermal comfort is one of the reasons for excessive consumption of energy. Researchers have come up with ways to measure the comfort level in order to avoid over consumption of energy used

gained from the building internal and external heat sources that is required to be removed by the building cooling system. Both heating and cooling loads form the basis in designing the HVAC systems for the building and occupied spaces to achieve both thermal comfort and good indoor air quality in the building. In addition‚ the calculated heating and cooling load can be used to provide estimate of energy consumption of building. Page 1 of 33 Heating load Cooling Load - Applications - Note:

Describe the implications for life if a body of water is affected by thermal pollution. Thermal pollution is a temperature change in natural bodies of water of that can and often does have negative impacts on the nearby ecosystem caused by human influence. The temperature change can be upwards or downwards. The major sources of thermal pollution are power plants and industrial factories. In most power plants‚ heat is produced when coal‚ oil‚ or natural gas is burned or nuclear fuels undergo fission

Linear Thermal Expansion The term thermal expansion refers to the increase in size of an object as that object is heated. With relatively few exceptions‚ all objects expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled. Perhaps the most important exception to this rule is water. Water contracts as it cools from its boiling point to about 39.2°F (4°C). At that point‚ it begins to expand as it cools further to its freezing point. This unusual effect explains the fact that ice is less dense

Thermal power plants are one of the main sources of electricity in both industrialized and developing countries. These plants have drawn flak on consumption of non-renewable sources of energy at a rapid rate and also since they release huge amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The anti-greenhouse gas activists are calling for thermal power to be replaced by other cleaner sources of energy. Functioning of thermal power plant: In a thermal power plant‚ one of coal‚ oil or natural gas
