Solar Technologies for Buildings by Ursula Eicker, University of Applied Sciences, Stuttgart

* Provides practical examples and calculations to enable component and system simulation e.g. Calculation of U-values, I-V curve parameters and radiance distribution modelling.
* Discusses the new trends in thermal energy use, including the architectural integration of collector systems, integrated ventilation photovoltaics facades and solar powered absorption cooling systems.
* Coverage of cutting-edge applications such as active and passive cooling techniques and results from ongoing research projects.
* Balances the physics and engineering background of solar heating, cooling and building integrated photovoltaics with practical applications.
