052-0638-21L  Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) - Workshop

SemesterFrühjahrssemester 2021
DozierendeA. Schlüter
Periodizitäteinmalige Veranstaltung
LehrspracheEnglisch
KommentarOnly for BSc students from 5th/6th semester and MSc students.


KurzbeschreibungThe weeklong workshop will focus on building integrated photovolatics (BiPV). Students will be introduced to theory, methods and tools to support them in developing demonstrator objects in teams in ITA's Robotic Fabrication Lab (RFL). The week program also includes an industry site visit and final presentations.
LernzielOn successful completion of the course, students will be able to:
1) explain the principles of BIPV and the relevant aspects of designing with solar materials (e.g. principles of the photovoltaic effect and solar glass properties);
2) assess the effects of the position of the sun, solar irradiance and design choices on PV system performance with basic calculations and tools;
3) fabricate PV demonstrator objects and demonstrate various PV designs
4) explain secondary functions of BIPV and how this relates to conventional construction; and
5) explain environmental benefits and market drivers of BIPV.
