BTDF measurement of semi-transparent facade components
Time-efficient measurement of optical characteristics of transparent façade systems incorporating
BIST and BIPV-T specific standardization new testing procedures
In TECNALIA, during MEZeroE project, we have developed new tests to obtain information on the power, efficiency and constructive viability of BIST and BIPV-T…
Optical parameter evaluation of the products over the whole range of incident angle
Optical measurements are typically done at 90º. The acquisition of a new spectrophotometer within MEZeroE project, allows TECNALIA to measure these parameters…
Dynamic test using a fan for comparison with theoretical calculus and experimental static tests
The standard related to the assessment of mechanical properties of the BIPV (EN 50583) defines static wind tests or theoretical calculus to assess mechanical…
Characterization of the behavior of the products in front of fire by simulation
In TECNALIA, we offer digital modelling and simulations, to understand product behaviour and their influence in a building fire, using the HRR (heat release…
Experimental testing in great scale calorimetric hood for products and systems characterization in front of fire
When PV or BIPV modules are used in façades and/or roofs, the current reference standard to use for BIPV is represented by the EN 50583, that sets the…
Extended-stress testing sequences for BIPV products
Existing qualification test standards such as IEC 61215 standard series (for terrestrial PV modules) have been very useful for identifying module designs that…
Coupled effect characterization by experimental tests (e.g. fire-electric)
Nowadays, the characterization of energy economy-mechanical-fire requirements (regulated by building regulations) and the basic characterization of electrical…
