- La necesaria investigación de los sistemas de calefacción urbana en la docencia del urbanismo(2011) Martín-Gómez, C. (César); Eguaras-Martínez, M. (María)A pesar de que la influencia de las infraestructuras urbanas en la práctica profesional del urbanismo es evidente, los arquitectos urbanistas que se forman en las Escuelas de Arquitectura que existen en España, reciben escasa información sobre esta materia. De entre todos los tipos de infraestructuras urbanas, la falta de referencias construidas de las destinadas a calefacción urbana en España, propicia la escasez de asignaturas sobre esta materia. Como consecuencia, si no se enseña, tampoco se investiga, generandose un negativo círculo cerrado para esta disciplina. Es por ello que se reivindica la necesidad de crear una metodología de investigación sobre este tipo de infraestructuras, que influya en la docencia que los futuros arquitectos urbanistas reciben en las Escuelas de Arquitectura españolas.

- Reasons why District Heating Systems were not extended in Spain(Politecnico di Milano, Italia, 2013-09-17) Martín-Gómez, C. (César); Eguaras-Martínez, M. (María)The influence of urban infrastructures in city planning is obvious. However, among all types of systems, those that are destined to supply thermal energy to the cities, there is no tradition in design and development in Spain, contrary to what happens in the United States or in other countries in Europe. From a technical point of view, these systems present a proven effectiveness in countries with more than one hundred years of experience using these infrastructures. They have an efficiency of up to forty per cent higher compared to other isolated systems of energy production, implicating better fuel management with a consequent reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Regarding the social implications, they present great advantages such as lower maintenance costs, avoid the problems of heat outage, or risks of individual explosions or accidents. But above everything, they improve the urban air quality in many towns, since local boilers and high chimneys are replaced for single heat generation plants. So, why this type of infrastructures has not had in Spain the same development as in other countries if the benefits seem clear as mentioned above?
- Prototype thermoelectric climate system for its use in residential buildings.(International Thermolectric Society, 2010-06) Martín-Gómez, C. (César); Rivas, A. (Alejandro); Ramos-González, J. (Juan Carlos); Eguaras-Martínez, M. (María); Mambrilla-Herrero, N. (Natalia); Torres-Ramo, J. (Joaquín)The School of Architecture of the University of Navarra has begun a project which consists in constructing a prefabricated module, consisting of a simplified inhabited housing unit, and monitoring over the course of one year the behavior of a thermoelectric installation that provides service to this module. The principal objective of the project is to quantify the response capacity of a thermoelectric climate control system applied to a prototype, and evaluate its energy and economic costs in the case that the system were applied in an apartment building. The development of this project represents the application in the field of construction of a technology that already is in use in other areas, fundamentally the military and aerospace. Therefore, we do not seek to demonstrate the performance of Peltier cells per se, but rather to evaluate how they function when applied to the residential area, and to analyze both the positive and negative aspects of their use.
- Architectural Simulation of the Integration of Building Information Modelling (BIM) & Business Process Modelling (BPM)(2014-09-17) Brennan, T. (Thomas); Tzovaras, D. (Dimitrios); Krinidis, Stelios; Martín-Gómez, C. (César); Vidaurre-Arbizu, M. (Marina); Eguaras-Martínez, M. (María); Ioannidis, DimosthenisThe current methods of building energy simulation that designers and engineers (D&E) use in order to find the energy performance of a building do not take into account the real behavior and daily activi- ties of the people who will use the building. The main aim of this paper is to demonstrate that a system for building simulation, that produces data about the activity behaviour of occupants as members of an enterprise structure and framework, can significantly improve the relevance and performance of building simulation tools, through the study of a real building in daily operation. Furthermore, data (BIM, BPM and occupancy data) has been performed exploiting Open Reference Data Modelling methodology in order to be reusable.
- Sensor placement for BPM analysis of buildings in use to implement energy savings through building performance simulation(2014) Martín-Gómez, C. (César); Vidaurre-Arbizu, M. (Marina); Eguaras-Martínez, M. (María)The article presents the process of placing sensors in a multi - sensorial network, dynamically incorporating a large number of heterogeneous input sources able to provide accurate monitoring data related with sp ace occupancy, energy consumption, comfort levels and environmental quality.To evaluate this multi – sensorial network on real life conditions and on the specific business domains addressed by the Project, this sensing network will be based on heterogeneous sensors (light, motion, CO2, CO, temperature, relative humidity, existing infrastructure on video - surveillance, depth/range image generators, energy consumption, etc.) in order to provide an all - inclusive perspective of covered spaces. The article is part of a global Project to develop privacy - preserving human detection and tracking toolkit , whith the implementation of algorithms for calibration of multiple - depth sensors in the architectural sketch up of a building (BIM), and the development of techniques for extraction of occupancy - related statistics in the spatio - temporal domain of a building. It is an architectural prototype agile and scalable, integrated with the extended LS middleware, que permite the training and calibration as decision making toolkit for Facility Managers.
- Prototype Thermoelectric Climate System for its Use in Residential Buildings(2010-11-03T07:58:47Z) Martín-Gómez, C. (César); Rivas, A. (Alejandro); Ramos-González, J.

Therefore, we do not seek to demonstrate the performance of Peltier cells per se, but rather to evaluate how they function when applied to the residential area, and to analyze both the positive and negative aspects of their use. In this regard, it must not be forgotten that Spanish regulations also require the evaluation of the maintenance needs of climate control equipment, and, in this regard, Peltier cells offer an important advantage: Despite the fact that the initial investment is greater than with a conventional method of climate control, the maintenance costs are nearly zero. For these reasons, an objective of the project is to estimate the construction and amortization costs of the application of this technology in the residential area.
