Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Micro-channel cooling is gaining considerable attention as an alternative technique for cooling of High-Energy Physics (HEP) detectors and Front-End (FE) electronics. This technology is being evaluated for future tracking devices, where material budget lim ...
District energy systems could be used together with centralized and decentralized energy conversion technologies in order to reduce the amount of CO2 emissions. One way to transfer the produced energy from these technologies to users is to implement the co ...
A new type of district energy network capable of providing simultaneously heating and cooling is being investigated. It is based on the use of CO2 as a heat transfer fluid by taking advantage of the latent heat of vaporization, to store and transfer heat a ...
Energy piles are an effective and economic means of using geothermal energy resources for heating and cooling buildings, contributing to legislative requirements for renewable energy in new construction. While such piles have been used for around 25 years ...
Cooling of datacenters is estimated to have an annual electricity cost of 1.4 billion dollars in the United States and 3.6 billion dollars worldwide. Currently, refrigerated air is the most widely used means of cooling datacenter’s servers, which typically ...
In tropical and subtropical regions, air-conditioning is employed throughout the year, which poses a significant challenge to the designer in reducing its energy consumption. Buildings in these regions would have latent load that is large enough throughout ...
This study investigates the potential for energy and water sustainability in hot and humid climates by utilizing the condensate captured from large dedicated air handling units (AHUs) for pre-cooling outdoor air in another AHU and subsequently offsetting c ...
Buildings account for over 40% of the energy consumption in the United States, nearly 40% of which is attributed to lighting. The selection of a fenestration system for a building is a critical decision as it offsets electric lighting use as well as impact ...
Thermal designers of data centers and server manufacturers are showing a great concern regarding the cooling of new generation data centers, which are more compact and dissipate more power than is currently possible to cool by conventional air conditioning ...
Free cooling, i.e., directly using outside cold air and/or water to cool down datacenters, can provide significant power savings of datacenters. However, due to the limited cooling capability, which is tightly coupled with climate conditions, free cooling ...
