Summary

The systems of clay, lime and vegetable fibers (straw, jute, ...) are being used again in the construction, within the framework of the search for more sustainable systems, the use of ecological and traditional materials of km 0 and little embedded energy. They are very hygroscopic materials, so they keep the indoor humidity very stable throughout the year. Radiant systems also comply with being the most efficient in transmitting heat, since they work at a temperature very close to that of comfort, which make them efficient with renewable energies (heat pumps and solar energy).

In this study, radiant air conditioning systems have been tested with clay, lime and vegetable fibers, which are highly hygroscopic, thus making it a perfect combination for radiant cooling, in climatic zones that work near the dew point. The tests carried out during two years with clay and Calcium silicate installed in a university facility have been evaluated and the combination of clay panels is being tested in the laboratory, with very satisfactory results.
