The operation of energy pile in summer can expel excessive heat of the buildings into the ground by the use of a heat pump. Despite of having been implemented for decades, the design of energy pile still relies heavily on empiricism as there is still limit ...
INSPIRATION In an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to improve resource use, the European Commission published in 2012 a new directive on energy efficiency (2012/27/EU). Among other measures, it requires member states to conduct cost-benefit an ...
In urban areas, the use of thermal energy services is intensive and relatively heterogeneous by their nature, spatial distribution and temperature level required. In this study three concepts of district energy networks that could provide these services ve ...
Energy piles are heat capacity systems that have been increasingly exploited to provide both supplies of energy and structural support to civil structures. The energy and geotechnical behaviours of such foundations, which are governed by their response to ...
A decentralized adaptive solar air conditioning system is presented, which contains usual air-conditioning equipment and a new module, designed with a honeycomb structure, containing phase change material for latent thermal cold and hot energy storage. Hea ...
Energy pile foundation can expel and extract heat into and from the ground in summer and winter, respectively. The discharge and extraction of heat induce cyclic thermal load in piles and may lead to serviceability problems. So far, the effects of cyclic h ...
This study addresses the geothermal potential of using the anchors of a cut-and-cover tunnel as heat exchangers with the ground for seasonal heat storage. The influence of the soil properties and water table level were investigated. Various service conditi ...
The development of ground source heat pumps has facilitated the use of geothermal power at shallow depths. Initially, ground heat exchangers were buried in trenches or boreholes, but recent investigations and increasing congestion of landscapes have sugges ...
The Lucerne University of Applied Sciences has been analysing and monitoring the low- temperature district heating and cooling network (LTN) “Suurstoffi” since 2012. The analysis showed that heating demand was twice as high as expected. On the other hand, ...
Suitable developments of sustainable energy sources are drawn by analysing the Energy sector, considering environmental, economic and social aspects. The particular example of Switzerland is detailed with a focus on the energy consumption in the buildings. ...
