Central solar heating plant is one of the most profitable, the most efficient and the most easily installable solar technology. However, there is significant limitations for its installation on all the northern roof. There is a gap between the summer heat ...
The facilitation of renewable energy technologies should also consider energy storage says Nicolas Crettenand as he looks at the potential for small storage and pumped storage plants in Switzerland. ...
Within the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and supplying sustainable energy, complex integrated energy conversion systems have to be designed by taking into account thermodynamic, economic and environmental considerations simultaneously. The proc ...
According to the International Energy Agency, CO2 emissions have to be cut by a factor 2 if one wants to mitigate the effect on the climate change to an acceptable limit. To reach this target, efficient use and conversion of energy resources is expected to ...
The interest in energy storage is currently increasing, especially from the perspectives of matching intermittent sources of renewable energy with customer demand and storing excess nuclear or thermal power during the daily cycle. Technologies to be consid ...
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 ...
The Second Law of thermodynamics is known to be an essential guide for the improvement of energy conversion systems. Throughout the years it has been applied to various engineering methods in particular in methods based on exergy [1] including the 2nd Law, ...
ECOS2010 - 23rd International Conference on Efficiency, Cost, Optimization, Simulation and Environmental Impact of Energy Systems, June 14-17 2010, Lausanne, Switzerland Ecoefficiency and renewable energy for a sustainable world + Developments, application ...
In the context of finding efficient and environmentally friendly solutions to energy pro- duction and consumption, this work presents a method for the systematic resolution of district energy problems using Multi-Objective Optimisation (MOO) methods. A dis ...
The ITER CICC will undergo a number of cool-down and warm-up cycles over the lifetime of the plant. The standard SULTAN based ITER conductor qualification test normally includes one thermal cycle in the test sequence. In many samples a performance degradat ...
