The document discusses heat transfer and ways to reduce heat loss from homes. It explains that heat always moves from warmer to cooler areas and names some common household devices that waste energy as heat or sound. It then discusses different insulation methods that can be used to reduce heat loss from homes, including double glazing, loft insulation, and cavity wall insulation.
Low-emissvity glass (also known as LOW-E glass) is a multi-layer metal or metal oxide film coated
on a glass surface, one or two layers of which are mainly Ag-based. It can effectively reduce solar
energy absorption or control energy loss, and greatly reduce the heat transfer coefficient of glass. It
can reflect 50%~80% of the heat transferred by glass, especially far-infrared radiant heat, while
allowing all or part of visible light to pass. Coated glass. Insulated glass(double glazed
units) processed with LOW-E coated glass not only has good energy-efficient and heat-insulating
effect.
Description about reflective glass. benefits of reflective glass, and uses of the material in building. also consist of illustrative diagram describing reflective glass.

The best option for energy efficient buildings is reflective glass. It has several advantages like it is eco-friendly in nature, it controls the amount of heat and many more.
HNG Float's Cool Insulating glass
For those who consider glass as a mere breakable and see-through material, need to think again. Glass is no ordinary material now especially the HNG Cool Insulating glass. Insulating glass is hermetically sealed double or triple glass units with cavity of 6mm to 24mm containing dehydrating Argon gas. The purpose of the same is to ensure high energy efficiency and thermal performance.
It is simple. We all learn in school how it is best to wear a white shirt on hot days to beat the heat. White reflects the heat off, keeping you cool while dark colors absorb heat and make you feel hot. Using this principle, painting your roof white or installing light colored roofs will help you keep your home cool. This is what is known as the cool roof. Cool roofs stay cool by reflecting and emitting as much the sun’s energy. With minimum heat transferred into your home, cool roofs help you cut down your cooling expenses and considerably reduce the energy bills.

Lesson 8: Shape,Size and Structure of the earthJamaica Olazo
The Earth was formed at the same time as the other planets of the Solar System from a vast spinning disc of gas and dust.
Scientists have gathered valuable information about the Earth with the use of advance science and technology to help us understand our planet.
They have determined the size and shape of the Earth by using precise instruments and equipment.
The Earth is shaped like an Orange because it bulges at the Equator and is flat at the polar regions.
Therefore, the Earth is an Oblate Spheroid.
Geodesy – the science that studies and measures the exact size and dimensions of the Earth.
Any time a home or building is constructed, it’s important to understand how the structure works as a complete system. It is much easier to build a green home once
familiar with some key principles, such as how heat and cold are transferred and the reasons why moisture and air move throughout our homes. If you properly direct the
system that is the structural house, it saves on energy losses through both air leaks and added moisture.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

17. Heat Transfer: Questions An engineer wishes to pump hot fluid from one place to another with as little loss of heat as is possible. a) What physical characteristics should the pipe have? (2) Narrow bore, shiny surface, low thermal conductivity, low heat capacity........
18. b) Should it necessarily be wide? c) Is the rate of flow of fluid important? No, it might increase the SA so much that more heat is lost - but that is unlikely in most cases . Yes, the less time it is in the pipe, the less energy it is likely to lose.
19. Heat Transfer: Radiation Reduce surface area and used highly polished, shiny surfaces. Evaporation Reduce exposed surface area - use a lid - float polystyrene balls on surface. Methods of decreasing heat transfer - insulation (continued) Note that generally the rate of cooling increases with increased excess temperature .
20. Heat Transfer: Conduction Leave a fluid (air gap) between surfaces - if the gap is “large” you might increase convection - introduce a vacuum jacket. Convection Reduce surface area and restrict the flow of the fluid - introduce a vacuum jacket.
