  1. 21. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Trollhättan Energy optimization

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för byggnadsteknik, energisystem och miljövetenskap

    Author : William Wanli; [2021]
    Keywords : Energy performance; Energy retrofits; Energy optimization; IDA-ICE; LCC analysis;

    Abstract : The world is experiencing increasing energy usage owing to environmental impacts suchas climate change, Ozone layer depletion, and global warming. Energy usage is primarily categorized into transport, industrial, residential, and service sectors, with the transportation and industrial sectors taking up a considerable chunk of the energy use; Buildings partly determine the use of energy globally.

  3. 22. The influence of passive measures on the highly demanding room climate requirements of a museum building in terms of sustainability

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Jasmin Jost; [2021]
    Keywords : museum; museum climate; conservation requirements; climate risk assessment; indoor environment; thermal comfort; thermal mass; moisture buffering; hygroscopic materials; life cycle assessment LCA ; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the exhibition space of a museum, a compromise between the requirements for the preservation of cultural goods and thermal comfort criteria for visitors has to be applied. Such a high level of control without allowing fluctuations in temperature and relative humidity poses a big challenge to the air conditioning systems to maintain these very specific hygrothermal conditions.

  4. 23. Control Design for an Energy-Sharing Module of Next-Generation Thermal Energy System ectogrid™

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Lisa Korsell; Tuva Ydén; [2021]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Today, heat and electricity production are two main sources of greenhouse gas emissions. A big share of the overall energy consumption is used to provide buildings with heating and cooling. Smart-energy solutions of heating and cooling could therefore be a more sustainable solution contributing to the green transition of the energy system. READ MORE

  5. 24. An early-stage energetic and environmental analysis for the new district of Jakobsgårdarna in Borlänge, Sweden

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

    Author : Filippo Pellegrino; [2020]
    Keywords : Building; District; Energy; Demand; LCA;

    Abstract : To achieve the aim of low carbon cities and zero energy districts, it is important to adapt the efficient technologies while maintaining the thermal comfort and sustainable environment. The new challenge in design and building new districts lies in a sustainable and smart way to minimize energy consumption and thus carbon emission. READ MORE
