Urban Oasis is a project investigating the energy efficiency of live walls compared to traditional walls by examining different wall types and insulating materials. The model measures heat transfer rates using plants like Pothos, Philodendron, and Boston Fern, and compares temperature and humidity on both sides of live and traditional walls. Utilizing AI and machine learning, it aims to optimize energy conservation and reduce reliance on air conditioning. This project provides comprehensive insights into the thermoregulatory capabilities of indoor live wall systems, building on existing studies to advance sustainable building practices.
The experiment employs diverse materials to assess energy efficiency. Wall types like red brick, cement, and plaster of Paris provide durability and insulation. Insulating materials such as cork sheet and rockwool offer thermal protection. Selected plants like Pothos and Philodendron aid in air purification and cooling, promoting sustainable construction practices.
