Title
The Project ThermalMapper - Thermal 3D Mapping of Indoor Environments for Saving Energy.
Abstract
Heat and air conditioning losses in buildings and factories lead to a large amount of wasted energy. The Action Plan for Energy Efficiency of the Commission of the European Communities (2008) estimates that the largest cost-effective energy savings potential lies in residential (≈ 27%) and commercial (≈ 30%) buildings. Imagine a technology that creates a precise digital 3D model of heat distribution and heat flow enabling one to detect all sources of wasted energy and to modify buildings to reach these savings. This paper presents our overall approach to map indoor environments with thermal data in 3D.
