• Additional thermal mass
• Day/night oscillation cut-off + over-ventilation = important cooling effect
• Robustness of simple solutions (reproducibility / optimization)
Case studies
Cité solaire (Plan-les-Ouates)
• Buried pipes in competition with recovery on exhaust air (but avoids freezing of heat recovery unit)
• Important cost, little preheating (mainly daily effect)
Case studies
Schwerzenbacherhof (Zurich)
• Cooling by over-ventilating !
• Water infiltration/evaporation ?
• Thermal link with building

• Objective: characterization of storage/dampening
• Limitation: cylindrical symmetry, constant airflow
Periodic heat charge / discharge

• Phase-shifting usualy secondary
• Heat penetration depth depends on period :

~ 3 m in yearly mode
~ 15 cm in daily mode
• Dampening given by serial link between convective and diffusive exchange :
