3. 2. Solar cooling systems : A comparative analysis for solar thermal and solar PV cooling systems for Industries using a techno-economic approach

   University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

   Author : Christoffer Larsson; [2022]
   Keywords : Photovoltaic cooling; solar thermal cooling; global LCOC;

   Abstract : With the need to reduce CO2 emissions in the energy sector, ensure electric grid stability and reduce future cost uncertainties for process cooling, solar cooling can be an interesting solution. This report describes the comparison of solar cooling with either a photovoltaics system or a solar thermal system using a thermally driven chiller. READ MORE

4. 3. Boxtemperaturens effekt på antalet avvanda smågrisar : en fältstudie under svenska förhållanden

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

   Author : Fay Wharton; [2021]
   Keywords : Gris; sugga; grisning; kullnummer; box; temperatur; avvanda smågrisar;

   Abstract : Att maximera antalet avvanda smågrisar per sugga har blivit ett viktigt mål inom dagens svenska grisproduktion, men fortsatt stora problem med hög smågrisdödlighet utgör en utmaning för producenterna och har negativa konsekvenser för djurvälfärden. Temperatur är en miljöfaktor som kan inverka på smågrisdödligheten och som visat sig kunna variera mellan boxar i samma stall, men få studier har undersökt omgivningstemperaturens effekt på suggornas prestation under svenska produktionsförhållanden.
