  1. 16. Combining solar collectos with an air heat pump for domestic hot water and space heating by Erik Svantesson

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Erik Svantesson; [2015]
    Keywords : Air heat pump; solar collector; direct electric heating; single family houses; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Today there are still single family houses with direct electric heating systems, even though this is an expensive and inefficient way of heating a house. It is common to install an air-to-air heat pump that requires less electricity to produce the same amount of heat as a direct electricity heating system. READ MORE

  3. 17. System Integration of PV/T Collectors in Solar Cooling Systems

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

    Author : Arash Ghaghazanian; [2015]
    Keywords : PV T; Solar cooling; Dubai; New Delhi; Cape Town; Los Angeles; Fractional primary energy saving; net metering; Adsorption; TDC; Polysun; Solar fraction; chiller;

    Abstract : The demand for cooling and air-conditioning of building is increasingly ever growing. This increase is mostly due to population and economic growth in developing countries, and also desire for a higher quality of thermal comfort. READ MORE

  4. 18. Techno-Economic Assessment of Solar PV/Thermal System for Power and Cooling Generation in Antalya, Turkey

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad termodynamik och kylteknik

    Author : Serdar Kumbasar; [2013]
    Keywords : solar cooling; photovoltaic thermal collectors; absorption chiller; techno-economic assessment;

    Abstract : In this study a roof-top PVT/absorption chiller system is modeled for a hotel building in Antalya, Turkey to cover the cooling demand of the hotel, to produce electricity and domestic hot water. PVT modules, an absorption chiller, a hot storage tank and a natural gas fired auxiliary heater are the main components of the system. READ MORE

  5. 19. Simulation of Photovoltaic Panel Production as Complement to Ground Source Heat Pump System

    University essay from Energi och miljöteknik

    Author : Seyed Ali Mohammad Badri; [2013]
    Keywords : Solar; Ground source heat pump; electrical heating elements; PV water heater;

    Abstract : This master thesis presents a new technological combination of two environmentally friendly sources of energy in order to provide DHW, and space heating. Solar energy is used for space heating, and DHW production using PV modules which supply direct current directly to electrical heating elements inside a water storage tank. READ MORE

  6. 20. Economic Evaluation of a Solar Charged Thermal Energy Store for Space Heating

    University essay from Energi och miljöteknik

    Author : Manuel Melo; [2013]
    Keywords : solar; thermal storage; thermal store; hot water store;

    Abstract : A thermal energy store corrects the misalignment of heating demand in the winter relative to solar thermal energy gathered in the summer. This thesis reviews the viability of a solar charged hot water tank thermal energy store for a school at latitude 56.25N, longitude -120.85W . READ MORE
