SOLAR THERMAL ROOFING FOR YEAR ROUND AND SEASONAL HEATING AT THE PENTAGON

摘要

The Pentagon Reservation contains several buildings that support the operation of the main building and other agencies in the Washington, DC area. One of the buildings operates a loading dock for the receipt of materials. A nearby building supports an emergency generator to provide backup power in the event of a power outage. The paper will discuss the design and construction of two solar thermal tile retrofits at the Pentagon in Arlington, VA. The discussion covers air handling systems, thermal storage installation, hybrid heat recovery and the design and construction of the solar thermal tile retrofit for heating an emergency generator
