Energy saving technology of ceramic tiles

Graphic Design for Ceramic Tiles

The development of a computer based design system for ceramic tiles forms part of a BriteEuram project aimed at providing automated quality control for ceramic tile production. The design system is expected to provide a priori information about each tile design to the quality control inspection stations. The differences between graphic design for paper and graphic design for ceramic are discuss...

saving energy in a hospital utilizing cchp technology

this paper describes a study that starts with an analysis of typical energy demand profiles in a hospital setting followed by a case study of a combined cooling, heating, and power (cchp) generation system.cchp is an autonomous system that combines the generation of electrical, heating, and cooling energy.the driving units are two high-efficiency gas engines that produce electrical and heat ene...

Natural radioactivity in ceramic tiles and associated radiological hazards

Background: The natural radioactivity levels in ceramic tiles produced in Turkey were determined and the related radiological hazards were assessed. Materials and Methods: The natural radioactivity levels (226Ra, 232Th and 40K) in the ceramic tiles were measured using high-purity germanium detector system (HPGe) and the related radiological hazards were assessed by radium equivalent activity (R...

Evaluation of adhesive bonding of ceramic tiles using active thermography

Adhesion failure and/or detachment of ceramic tiling are common building defects. Bonding rupture of this type of coating presents a serious risk to people’s safety, in particular if it occurs on external façades. It may be avoided by earlier non-destructive inspections. This paper presents the results of an active thermography investigation in which adhesive bonding defects of ceramic coatings...
