  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

  2. 2. Solar collector air conditioning system using absorption chiller for a commercial building in Palakkad district, Kerala, India

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Jerin George; Vysakh Sajeeve Nair; [2023]
    Keywords : Renewable Energy; Absorption chiller; Air conditioning; Energy consumption;

    Abstract : Due to effects of global warming and rising living standards, Kerala’s, India air conditioning sector has seen an increase in energy consumption in recent years. Increased need for power resulted in a peak demand owing to the usage of traditional air conditioning systems running on electricity produced from fossil fuels. READ MORE

  3. 3. Towards low carbon buildings: A case study in Sweden

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

    Author : Huynh Tuan Tran; Victor-Antoine Delorme; [2023]
    Keywords : Life cycle assessment; Environmental impact of building materials; Carbon neutrality; Biobased material; Biochar; Cross Laminated Timber; Biogenic carbon; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study comprehensively evaluated the global warming potential of an office building in a newly built Scandinavian neighbourhood seeking to reach sustainability. The primary objective of the research was to support the city authorities of Helsingborg by providing valuable insights into actual carbon emissions at the building level and proposing measures to minimize these emissions to achieve climate neutrality by 2030.

  4. 4. Rooftop plant factories: effects on energy use for heating, cooling and electric lighting

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

    Author : Yizhi Zhang; [2021]
    Keywords : Urban and peri-urban agriculture and forestry UPAF ; urban farming UF ; rooftop greenhouse RTG ; lighting; daylighting; energy conservation; roof; greenhouse; food; cities.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Within the next thirty years, two thirds of the human population will live in a city. This growing urban population requires a major shift in the way we produce and distribute food, since industrial agriculture practices contribute to climate change, biodiversity losses, pollution of waterways, soil degradation, etc. READ MORE

  5. 5. Technical performance evaluation of solar photovoltaic systems : A case study of eight PV systems on the Swedish market installed at RISE research facilities

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Awaz Sinan Rashid; Gulala Safari; [2021]
    Keywords : Building integrated photovoltaics; Building applied photovoltaics; Performance evaluation; Performance ratio; Specific energy yield; Module technology; Module temperature; Inverter size;

    Abstract : The main objective of this thesis was to evaluate the technical performance of eight small-scale PV (photovoltaic) systems on the Swedish market. Several parameters were measured for each system from June to November 2020. READ MORE
