A Study on Reducing Heat Gains through the use of Green Envelope by Alabadla, Mania

“…The increment of ambient temperature in urban areas caused by heat island phenomenon increases the stress on cooling loads and increases the electricity peak demand. 75% of electricity consumption in Abu Dhabi is used for cooling the buildings which increase the carbon footprint of UAE significantly. The rising anxiety of climate change and the importance of energy resources, led to the creation of Estidama rating system by the government of Abu Dhabi in order to promote green buildings that incorporate green roofs and green facades. …”

Quantitative Compressibility Effects in Thermal Elastohydrodynamic Circular Contacts by Habchi, W.

“…It is also observed that the relative errors on central film thicknesses induced by the use of the Dowson and Higginson relationship for compressibility increase with load and temperature and are very little affected by mean entrainment speed. Compressibility is shown to be a significant source of error in film-derived measurements of pressure-viscosity coefficients especially at high temperature. …”
