  1. 1. Study case: The water-cooling effect on floating photovoltaic plants performance

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Alice Dragon; [2024]
    Keywords : Solar photovoltaic; Floating photovoltaic; Performance analysis; Thermal loss; Panel Efficiency; Cooling effect; Solceller; Flytande solceller; Prestandaanalys; Termisk förlust; Panelens effektivitet; Kylande effekt;

    Abstract : Floating solar technology is relatively new, and it comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities. This master thesis focuses on understanding how Floating Photovoltaic (FPV) projects perform compared to Ground-Based Photovoltaic (GPV) projects, in specific weather conditions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Solar Photovoltaic Thermal Collectors and Ground Source Heat Pumps for Commercial Buildings : Case study in Sweden

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

    Author : Doris Dijak; Elin Torstensson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ground Source Heat Pump; Photovoltaic Thermal Collectors; Borehole Thermal Energy Storage; Free Cooling.; Bergvärmepumpssystem; Termiska Solceller; Borrhålsbaserade Termiska Energilager; Frikyla.;

    Abstract : In order to reduce emissions from the building sector, which stands for than a fifth of the global energy consumption today, efficient and fossil free heating and cooling systems are of importance. This study investigates the combination of solar photovoltaic thermal collectors and ground source heat pump systems in order to regenerate energy to the ground in combination with free cooling.

  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. Reversible windows for energy savings : Computer simulations using IDA-ICE software

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för byggnadsteknik, energisystem och miljövetenskap

    Author : Aitor Latasa Galíndez; Germán Mestre Manrique; [2023]
    Keywords : Thermal comfort; solar; transmittance; heat; cooling; reversible windows; IDA-ICE; energy; savings; winter; summer;

    Abstract : This study looks at how reversible windows can minimize cooling and heating energy use while maintaining thermal comfort in buildings in Sweden and Spain. The growing need for energy-efficient structures and the potential advantages of reversible windows served as the driving forces behind this study. READ MORE

  6. 5. Improving thermal comfort while managing the constraints of the prison environment : Study of the construction project of the Marseille prison "Les Baumettes 3" and proposal of a thermal comfort strategy in the design phase

    University essay from KTH/Hållbara byggnader

    Author : Cassandre Druere; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In France, a prison construction plan has been launched under the presidency of Emmanuel Macron to improve the living conditions of prisoners. The aim of this plan is of course to provide decent living conditions for prisoners but also to promote their reintegration. READ MORE
