I had a blast today at the (hopefully first of many) annual heat pumping demonstrator. Very proud of my @WeitzmanSchool students developing abstract and creative ways to interface with heat pumps. Thanks to @kippworks and @ForrestCHAOS for the conceptual and functional review!

@xtracycle we made the "coolest" bike out there @cooperunion, turning a free radical into a heat pump beverage cooler, powered by pedaling. @BITZERGroup @kippworks @ForrestCHAOS

@BITZERGroup any suggestions for how get more 0Y compressors? We’re bringing the project back at more universities and I’m having trouble finding the compressor!

Researchers from @andlingercenter alongside a team from @UBC, @UCBerkeley and @SEC_ETH have created a product that can remove up to 50% of typical air conditioning energy consumption. Learn more about the Cold Tube: bit.ly/3biRC9b

This @mashable video features our own @ericteitelbaum as he explains the radiant cooling system inside the "Cold Tube" pavilion. Cool. 😎 mashable.com/video/stay-cool…

Made the first bullet in the @ashraenews with our recent study in @SpringerNature @SciReports. Great thermal image of @chenkianwee showing off all the thermal heat we measure incorrectly. Thanks for support from @AndlingerCenter and @SEC_ETH nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

New research out of @fmeggers group found a longstanding error in the way radiance is calculated & its impact on thermal comfort. The finding could explain under use of energy efficient radiant heating & cooling systems. Read: go.nature.com/3bzuyme @ericteitelbaum

Feeling too hot or cold? Our article out today in @SpringerNature @SciReports shows systemic error of decades of measurements of #radiant conditions in buildings used to model your #comfort. Using 20% of #energy to BADLY heat/cool must stop! @ashraenews. rdcu.be/b1G3w

Excited to announce our latest research has just been published with @SpringerNature in @SciReports, showing a mechanism that systematically underestimates the impact of thermal radiation on your thermal comfort. Read here: rdcu.be/b1G3w @AndlingerCenter @SEC_ETH
My new comfort paper, a CHAOS Lab and @buds_lab collaboration. Staying cool with radiation was never so colorful. Open access for the next 44 days! @fmeggers @PrincetonSoA @AndlingerCenter authors.elsevier.com/a/1aHm2…

Eric Teitelbaum and Nicholas B Houchois use their SMART Sensor to measure occupancy & thermal comfort. Using thermal imaging the sensor provides a picture of how comfortable people are. They are co-founders of Hearth Labs, which spun out of @fmeggers lab.

Published! Revisiting an exciting 1963 study that helped generate the Cold Tube concept with @PrincetonSoA @UBC @UCBerkeley @_FCL @CREATE_NRF and @UWCSEA_Dover
Published! "Revisiting radiant cooling: condensation-free heat rejection using infrared-transparent enclosures of chilled panels" doi.org/10.1080/00038628.201… Thanks to @ericteitelbaum @fmeggers @Princeton @ethsingapore @UBC @UCBerkeley @AndlingerCenter!
