Methodology and Thermo-Economic Optimization for Integration of Industrial Heat Pumps

Helen Carla Becker

This thesis presents a systematic methodology, based on pinch analysis and process integration techniques, to integrate heat pumps into industrial processes. The main goals are to decrease the energy consumption and the corresponding operating costs, and t ...

THERMAL STORAGE AIMING AT INCREASING THE SHARE OF USED HEAT REJECTED FROM A COOLING PROCESS

Antoine Girardin

Neighbourhood energy concepts for mixed industrial and commercial sites can be developed by applying energy integration techniques. This study presents an application of these techniques on a concrete site (RTA facility in Vienna, Austria), focussing on th ...

Enthalpy and exergy analysis in the framework of a district scale energy balance

Cédric Lambiel

This report presents a study of an enthalpy and exergy analysis in the framework of a district scale energy balance. Energy demand (heating, cooling and lighting) for buildings represents more than 30 % of the total worlds energy use. Main eﬀorts have been ...

Thermoeconomic Analysis of a Solar Enhanced Energy Storage Concept Based on Thermodynamic Cycles

Samuel Henchoz

Large scale energy storage may play an increasingly important role in the power generation and distribution sector, especially when large shares of renewable energies will have to be integrated into the electrical grid. Up to now pumped-hydro is the only t ...

Méthodologie de la synthèse des systèmes énergétiques industriels

Raffaele Bolliger

This work presents a synthesis method that leads to the preliminary design of industrial energy systems. Such systems are composed of several technologies that transform, through a set of physical unit operations, raw materials and energy into products and ...

Study on the definition of dTmin for heat recovery

Jean-Pascal Wenk

This project inserts itself in improving the understanding of the sensitivity of the dTmin against the parameters that influence it. It is also aimed at helping to improve OSMOSE, a platform designed for the study of energy conversions systems. Three econo ...

Process Integration Methodology

Helen Carla Becker

Process integration methods aim at identifying options for heat recovery and optimal energy conversion in industrial processes. For the heat cascade, it is assumed that any heat exchange between cold and hot streams is possible, but due to industrial const ...

Optimization of cascade stilling basins using GA and PSO approaches

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

In high head dams, the kinetic energy at the spillway toe is very high and the tail-water depth available for energy dissipation is relatively small. Cascade stilling basins are energy dissipation systems for high head dams, the design of which is based on ...
