This thesis presents a system approach with the aim to develop improved concepts for small capacity, high temperature lift air-water heat pumps. These are intended to replace fuel fired heating systems in the residential sector, which leads to a major redu ...
The tubes in shell-and-tube condensers, widely used in refrigeration and chemical process industries, are subjected to condensate inundation from the neighboring tubes. The aim of the present investigation is to study the effect of condensate inundation on ...
In this paper the first results of a new method for the configuration of district energy systems are presented. District energy systems are believed to help decreasing the CO2-emissions due to energy services (heating, cooling, electricity and hot water), ...
Exergy concept combined with pinch based approach are used for studying the optimal integration of energy conversion systems. The analysis first considers the representation of the hot and cold composite curves of the process and defines the energy and the ...
This study is a contribution for the improvement of horizontal falling film heat exchangers. This type of evaporator has the potential to be widely used in the petrochemical industry, for the sea water desalination, or in the large refrigeration systems. A ...
Calorimetry has shown real potential at bench-scale for chem. and biochem. processes. The aim of this work was therefore to scale-up the system by adaptation of a std. com. available 300-L pilot-scale bioreactor. To achieve this, all heat flows entering or ...
In an earlier contribution it was shown that the Continuous-Properties Model (CPM) is an ideal theoretical model to calculate melting of ice slurries. Now with a shock-theoretical approach, it is proven that the CPM - in the limit toward a discontinuous me ...

Steam production units (HRSG and HSSG) of ISCCS include several heat exchangers (economizers, evaporator, superheater, reheaters, etc.). The knowledge of the extended composites as a function of the solar input, allows the determination of the most critica ...
The heat transport to a talin/water ice slurry in a cylindrical heat exchanger was determined by theory and experiment. The theory based on perturbation analysis is only valid for small heat transfer rates. Direchlet and Neumann boundary conditions are app ...

Targeting the integration of the utility system in an industrial site, introduces the problem of combined heat and power production and more specifically the optimal integration of the steam network. We present a mathemat ical tool that allows, using only ...
