  1. 1. Comparative Analysis of Modern Energy Systems for Ice Rinks

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

    Author : Pendar Hemati; [2023]
    Keywords : Ice rinks; refrigeration; heat recovery; CO2; ammonia; propane; Pistas de hielo; refrigeración; recuperación de calor; CO2; amoníaco; propano;

    Abstract : Ice rinks are highly energy-intensive commercial buildings with an average annual energy consumption of 1,000 MWh, most of it being used to cover the simultaneous heating and cooling demands. The aim of this thesis is to find the most energy efficient energy system for ice rinks by evaluating different system modifications and refrigerants. READ MORE

    Author : Alejandro Rodríguez-Urdaneta; [2020]
    Keywords : buildings; energy efficiency; energy savings; energy simulations.; edificios; eficiencia energética; ahorro de energía; simulaciones energéticas.;

    Abstract : Several studies have shown that the buildings envelope optical properties are important in terms of energy use and thermal comfort level. However, no study has been found in regard of the optimal optical properties for the building envelope. READ MORE

  5. 4. Simulation of Tri-generation Systems with application of optimization

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad termodynamik och kylteknik

    Author : Javier Galvan; [2012]
    Keywords : tri-generation; supermarkets; primary energy savings; optimization; evolutionary algorithms; energy efficiency; cogeneration; Trnsys; Tri-generación; supermercados; ahorro de energía primaria; optimización; eficiencia energética; cogeneracion; Trnsys;

    Abstract : Despite the fact that cogeneration (CHP) and tri-generation (CHCP) are among the most efficient ways to produce electricity and thermal energy, there is still some unexploited potential for these techniques. One could say that the circumstances for using these techniques are better now than ever. READ MORE
