ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT WATER-DRIVEN BREATHER!

BREATHING

SKIN

-

WHAT

A

URBAN

HOMEOSTASIS, THE GENESIS OF OUR RESEARCH IN SMART MATERIALS, IS THE FUNDAMENTAL MECHANISM FOR ORGANISMS TO MAINTAIN AN EQUILIBRIUM IN PHYSILOGICAL VARIABLES THAT SUSTAIN LIVES. THE QUESTION WHETHER A SMART MATERIAL SYSTEM CAN FUNCTION AS SIMPLY AS ORGANIC ACTIVITIES LEADS US INTO THE EXPLORATION OF A SERIES OF MATERIALS THAT RESEMBLES SUCH. BREATHING, AMONG ALL OTHERS, INTRIGUES US IN THE SENTIMENT THAT ITS RESULTING MECHANISM OF OPEN/CLOSE BEHAVIOR THAT ENABLES AIR EXCHANGE AND REGULATION IN BODY TEMPERATURE RESEMBLES THAT OF VENTILATION TO ACHIEVE COMFORT IN AN ENCLOSED AREA. THIS THEN IS ORIENTED TO THE OBJECTIVE OF WATER-DRIVEN BREATHIN SKIN. SODIUM POLYACRYLATE, ONE OF THE SUPERABSORBENT POLYMERS IN THE HYDROMORPH FAMILY, IS THE MAJOR MATERIAL FOR THE SKIN SYSTEM IN THE WAKE OF THE PRELIMINARY STUDY FOR ITS HIGH CAPACITY OF VOLUME CHANGE WHEN ABSORBING WATER UP TO 300 TIMES OF ITS VOLUME IN A SHORT TIME SPAN, AND THE EFFECT OF EVAPORATIVE COOLING AS IT PROLONGS THE EVAPORATION PROCESS . THE STUDY FURTHERED INTO THE TESTS OF COMPOSITING AND ENCAPSULATING WITH FACILITATING MATERIALS IN UNDERSTANDING MATERIAL BEHAVIOR, WHICH HAS CONCLUDED ON THE ENCAPSULATION OF SODIUM POLYACRYLATE WITH ELASTIC FABRICS, FOLLOWED BY A LIBRARY OF EXPERIMENTS IN SHAPES, PATTERNS AND SIZE IN AN ATTEMPT TO OPTIMIZE OPEN/CLOSE MECHANISM TO CAPACITATE PASSIVE VENTILATION AND COOLING IN HOT AND DRY SUMMER CLIMATES. ADDITIONALLY, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE LACK OF WATER IN TARGETED CLIMATES, THE SYSTEM DESIGN CONTEMPLATED ON THE SUPPLY OF WATER. FOG/DEW COLLECTION IS ADOPTED AS AN ESTABLISHED LOCAL INTELLIGENCE AND IS A NATURAL CYCLICAL SYSTEM REQUIRING NO FURTHER CONSUMPTION, AND IS 15 TIMES MORE WATER-EFFICIENT THAN THAT OF A MISTING SYSTEM COMMONLY USED.

AS A RESULT, WATER-DRIVEN BREATHING SKIN IS DEVELOPED TO BE A SEMI-PASSIVE MATERIAL SYSTEM FOR OUTDOOR SPACES IN HOT CLIMATES WHERE PUBLIC SPACE IS LESS WELCOMED DUE TO THE SUMMER HEAT. WITH THE MATERIAL SYSTEM, VENTILATION AND EVAPORATIVE COOLING ARE MADE POSSIBLE SEMIPASSIVELY IN A TENSILE-STRUCTURED FORM WHERE THE BREATHING SKIN COULD TAKE IN MULTIPLE USES AND FORMS. NOT ONLY IS IT COST-EFFECTIVE IN CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE, ENERGYEFFICIENT FOR AREAS IN WATER SHORTAGE BUT ALSO TENSILE AND PLIABLE FOR URBAN SPACES.

BREATHING BEHAVIOR

homeostasis machanics HOMEOSTASIS IS THE PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS THAT REFERS TO THE BODY OR A CELL TO SEEK AND MAINTAIN A CONDITION OF EQUILIBRIUM OR STABILITY WITHIN ITS INTERNAL ENVIRONMENT. THIS INCLUDES BODY TEMPERATURE REGULATION, PH VALUE OF EXTRACELLULAR FLUIDS OR THE CONCENTRATION OF IONS IN BLOOD PLASMA.

surface transforming test

suface transforming test lycra BIOPLASTIC-SODIUM POLYACRYLATE COMPOSITE IS APPLIED TO LYCRA FABRIC TO TEST HOW DIFFERENT PATTERNS AND COMPOSITION OF SODIUM POLYACRYLATE COULD GENERATE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF CURLING EFFECT THAT SIMULATES OPEN/CLOSE BEHAVIOR. THE COMPOSITE HAS GOOD ATTACHMENT TO THE FABRIC AND THE CURLING EFFECT WHICH CLOSES THE FABRIC IS MOST SIGNIFICANT IN THE END OF THE COMPOSITE PATH. THEREFORE, DIAGONAL PATTERNS OR SIMILAR ONE-DIRECTION PATTERN STRENGTHENS THE CLOSING BEHAVIOR. ALSO, THE HIGHER THE COMPOSITION IS, THE BETTER THE CURLING EFFECT IS. IT IS, NEVERTHELESS, A LIMITING FACTOR THAT THE COMPOSITE TENDS TO BE BREAKABLE WHEN CONSTANTLY EXPOSED TO WATER AND THUS HAVE LOWER REVERSIBILITY. ADDITIONALLY, WITHOUT A CONSTRAINING FORCE, THE CONTROL OF CURLING BEHAVIOR IS LIMITED AND UNPREDICTABLE. THEREFORE, THE EXPERIEMENT ADVANCED INTO ENCAPSULATION LATER ON.

IN COMPARISON WITH TEST RESULTS FOR LYCRA, THE COMPOSITE NEEDS TO BE IN A EVEN HIGHER COMPOSITION OF SODIUM POLYACRYLATE IN ORDER FOR BETTER ADHESION TO THE SURFACE, AND THE CURLING EFFECT IS MORE HOMOGENEOUS ACROSS THE SURFACE BECAUSE OF LOWER POROSITY OF THE SILICONE SHEET PROPERTY, WHICH LEADS TO A GREATER CONTROL OF THE CLOSING EFFECT. ALSO, THE HIGHER THE COMPOSITION IS, THE BETTER THE CURLING EFFECT IS.

encapsulation

encapsulation THE EXPERIMENT AIMS TO SEEK FOR THE OPTIMAL WAY OF CREATING CELLS IN WHICH SODIUM POLYACRYLATE ARE ENCAPSULATED INTO FABRIC WITH VARIATIONS IN POCKET ARRANGEMENTS TO ATTAIN BETTER OPEN/CLOSE BEHAVIOR. THE CELL ENCAPSULATION INVOLVES TWO TYPES OF FABRICS: ONE ELASTIC HYDROPHILIC AND THE OTHER NON-ELASTIC HYDROPHOBIC, IN WHICH THE FORMER IS AN ELASTIC FABRIC WHILE THE LATTER IS SILICONE SHEET. THE ELASTIC HYDROPHILIC FABRIC ALLOWS WATER TO PENETRATE INTO THE ENCAPSULATED MATERIAL AND PROVIDES SPACE FOR THE SWELLING; MEANWHILE, NON-ELASTIC HYDROPHOBIC FABRIC CONSTRAINS THE SWELLING TO A SINGLE DIRECTION - THE HYDROPHILIC SIDE. BY SO, THE CELLS CAN ACHIEVE A BETTER CLOSING EFFECT. ALSO, THE HYDROPHOBIC FABRIC PROVIDES WATER-PROOF QUALITIES.

THE BLACK FABRIC SHOWS A GREATER CAPACITY FOR EVAPORATION THAN THE WHITE. AND THE EVAPORATION RATE REMAINS THE SAME WITH THE VARIED AMOUNT OF SODIUM POLYACRYLATE: A CELL CONTAINING 0.2G SODIUM POLYACRYLATE NEEDS AN AVERAGE OF 3 DAYS FOR COMPLETE EVAPORATION.

COOLING ENERGY CONSUMPTION AND CARBON FOOTPRINT

[ ENERGY USE IN FACILITIES ] COOLING SYSTEM IN MODERATE AND WARM CLIMATES ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST OF THE ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN BUILDINGS.

[ AC CONSUMPTION AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ] AN AVERAGE CENTRAL AC OF 3.5 KW POWER [COOLS A SPACE OF 35-40 M2] 3.5KW x 9 = 31.5 KWH / DAY [IF AC IS USED 9 HOURS PER DAY]

[ 31.5 KWH/DAY ] [ 0.5 KG CO2/KWH ]

0.5 KG OF CO2 IS EMITTED PER 1 KWH 31.5 KWH X 0.5 = 15.75 KG / DAY LOWERING DOWN 1 DEGREE INCREASES THE POWER CONSUMPTION OF COOLING SYSTEMS BY 5%.

THE BREATHING SKIN SYSTEM IS ABLE TO REDUCE THE INDOOR TEMPERATURE BY 5 °C ,THEREFORE IF IT WAS APPLIED TO BUILDINGS IT WOULD SAVE 25% OF ENERGY COOLING CONSUMPTION. MATERIAL

AS A RESULT, WATER-DRIVEN BREATHING SKIN IS DEVELOPED TO BE A SEMI-PASSIVE MATERIAL SYSTEM FOR OUTDOOR SPACES IN HOT CLIMATES WHERE PUBLIC SPACE IS LESS WELCOMED DUE TO THE SUMMER HEAT. WITH THE MATERIAL SYSTEM, VENTILATION AND EVAPORATIVE COOLING ARE MADE POSSIBLE SEMIPASSIVELY IN A TENSILE-STRUCTURED FORM WHERE THE BREATHING SKIN COULD TAKE IN MULTIPLE USES AND FORMS. NOT ONLY IS IT COST-EFFECTIVE IN CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE, ENERGYEFFICIENT FOR AREAS IN WATER SHORTAGE BUT ALSO TENSILE AND PLIABLE FOR URBAN SPACES.
