  1. 1. Technical performance modelling and optimization of PVT collectors in GSHP integration

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Marin Courcault; [2023]
    Keywords : PVT; ISO9806:2017; mass flow; use conditions; test conditions; coefficients optimization; TRNSYS; PVT; ISO9806:2017; massflöde; användningsförhållanden; testförhållanden; optimering av koefficienter; TRNSYS;

    Abstract : In order to contribute to reducing the CO2 emissions related to heating in housing buildings, PVT+GSHP systems appear to be interesting solutions and therefore need to be further investigated to optimise their design and increase their deployment on the field. This thesis focused on building PVT model, using the ISO9806:2017, to be integrated in a PVT+GSHP model and determining optimal PVT design parameters for this system. READ MORE

  3. 2. Free cooling and PVT integration in a ground-source heat pump (GSHP) system

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Christopher Pourier; [2023]
    Keywords : Ground-source heat pump; borehole; GSHP; photovoltaic thermal collector; PVT; free cooling; Ytjordvärmepump; borrhål; GSHP; solfångare; PVT; frikylning;

    Abstract : The performance of ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems can be negatively affected over time by soil temperature degradation of boreholes (BH) in heating dominated climates. Land area is scarce in the dense urban environments typical of multi-family houses (MFH) and can lead to accelerated degradation- in tight BH fields. READ MORE

  4. 3. Experimental Testing of Solar Photovoltaic/Thermal Collectors for Low Temperature Heat Pump Integration

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Jaakko Eskola; [2023]
    Keywords : Solar photovoltaic thermal; PVT; heat pump; thermal performance; ISO 9806:2017; Solhybrid; PVT; värmepump; termisk prestanda; ISO 9806:2017;

    Abstract : A hybrid photovoltaic/thermal (PVT) collector enables simultaneous electricity and heat production from a single solar module. Integrating PVT collectors with a ground source heat pump (GSHP) improves the seasonal performance of the heating system and prevents from temperature degradation of the ground. READ MORE

  5. 4. Comparative simulation of PVT designs for three locations in Europe with different simulation tools

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : María Teresa Rodríguez Rubio; [2022]
    Keywords : Agriculture; Energy; European Commission; Horizon 2020; Innovation Project; Livestock farms; Renewable Energy; RES4LIVE; Solar Energy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, different types of PVT (photovoltaic-thermal collectors) for three different farms in Europe will be studied, as part of the RES4LIVE project from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Action programme. A suitable renewable energy system will be proposed for each farm, considering the temperature range requirement and the climate conditions in each farm. READ MORE

  6. 5. Techno-economic feasibility study of PVT collector coupled with heat pump for membrane distillation water purification in rural India

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Erik von Schultz; [2022]
    Keywords : Photovoltaic-thermal; Heat pump; Membrane distillation; Off-grid; Water purification; AGMD; Solhybridpaneler; Värmepump; Membrandestillation; Off-grid; Vattenrening; AGMD;

    Abstract : India is experiencing a bitter challenge in terms of water resources, with the lack of access to safe drinking water being attributed to nearly 200 000 deaths per year. The rural population is especially exposed as groundwater make up 85 % of their drinking water, with widespread contamination being reported. READ MORE
