Optimizing Thermal Efficiency in Buildings Using Aluminum-Modified Concrete Mixtures
摘要
Cooling tiles are gaining popularity in India because of the hot and humid climate; this innovative tile design aids in sustaining the thermal comfort of buildings. These tiles were created to limit the amount of heat absorbed by a structure from direct sunlight, thereby reducing cooling energy costs and contributing to climate change mitigation at both local and global scales. This study investigates novel chemical compositions for conventional cooling tiles in order to improve their cooling capability and impact strength. The effectiveness of cool roof pigments is determined by different pigments that use aluminium oxide as a binder being examined for their qualities. This study focused on capacity for mechanical strength and characteristics of microstructural behaviors of the concrete mix of grade M25. Along with aluminum, copper is also added to provide a cooling effect. In addition to copper powder and alumina, tiles with the proposed higher strength and durability impact could use a wide range of alumina-rich materials. To study the mix ratio for preliminary test analysis for mechanical properties.
