30　Study on annual use of residential energy system with PV/T solar panels and building-integrated thermal energy storage

Abstract

With the recent issue of energy conservation in buildings, the utilization of solar thermal energy is attracting attention. This study examines the integration of a thermal storage system with the building frame and its use as an under-floor thermal storage and radiant floor heating system. The annual indoor environment of the house with this system and its energy-saving effects are reported in this paper.
