  1. 1. Energy analysis between traditional hot water circulation system and an innovative pipe-in-pipe system

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : Alejandro Abellán Guallarte; [2022]
    Keywords : Hot water circulation; pipe-in-pipe; energy saving; buildings; heat losses; warm water;

    Abstract : We are at a time when energy efficiency and the reduction in the use of non-renewable energy is an important objective in all aspects and will continue to be so, therefore it is necessary to try to reduce energy and heat losses in the systems used in homes and, in particular, in the domestic hot water (DHW) system. This study aims to find out the advantages and disadvantages of an innovative pipe-in-pipe (PIP) system for DHW circulation with respect to the conventional system of two separate pipes. READ MORE
