dc.description.abstract | This paper excerpts work in progress within a United States Department of Energy sponsored research program. In this work, design studies establish scenarios of energy efficient housing systems for the year 2030 based on the anticipated development of materials and technologies currently in basic research, development and early commercialization. Of the scenarios explored, this paper summarizes portions of the Cool Climate Scenario developed for a heating dominated climate (Minnesota). This scenario is derived from current materials research underway in thin, high performance insulations, phase changing finishes, wood composite materials, space conditioning appliances and process research underway in design process computing and manufacturing. Of these only the insulations related sections are the subject of this paper. | en_US |
dc.description.sponsorship | Research described in this paper is excerpted from the Design for Energy Efficiency Task Area of the Energy Efficient Industrialized Housing research program. This program is a collaboration of the Center for Housing Innovation and Energy Studies in Buildings Laboratory at the University of Oregon, the Florida Solar Energy Center and the University of Central Florida with the sponsorship of the U.S. Department of Energy, the States of Oregon and Florida and private industry. | en_US |
