  1. 1. Antarctic Subglacial Lakes as Environmental Analogues for Possible Hidden Biospheres on the Moons Europa and Enceladus

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Jonas Fahlman; [2023]
    Keywords : astrobiology; icy moons; subglacial lakes; ice dynamics; thermal regimes; extremophiles; anthropogenic contamination; astrobiologi; ismånar; subglaciala sjöar; is-dynamik; termiska regimer; extremofiler; antropologisk kontaminering;

    Abstract : The evolving science of astrobiology for the search for life beyond Earth has put focus on the possibility of subsurface bodies of liquid water beneath the surface of icy moons within our Solar System. Specifically, the Jovian moon of Europa and the Saturnian moon of Enceladus show telling characteristics of endogenous heating through their complex tidal resonances with their parent planets – suggesting the presence of oceans of liquid water and therefore a potential for astrobiology.

  3. 2. Energy audit of a single-family detached house with district heating in Sweden

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : Asier Querejeta Cano; [2023]
    Keywords : energy audit; single-family house; heat transmission; solar photovoltaic panels; solar thermal collectors; district heating; mechanical ventilation.;

    Abstract : As energy prices keep increasing, energy efficiency measures have come to the spotlight, especially in the residential sector. In this context, energy audits appear as powerful tools in order to assess the energy use and cost of energy of a dwelling, and identify possible energy saving measures that increase the energy efficiency and reduce costs.

  4. 3. Solar PV Integrated with Seasonal Thermal Storage and District Heating

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Lovisa Thalén; Hannah Ekström; [2023]
    Keywords : Solar PV; power-to-heat; heat pump; electric boiler; thermal seasonal storage; district heating; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In order to contribute to reaching the climate goals of the future, power-to-heat (P2H) technologies are a possible solution. A heat pump (HP) or an electric boiler (EB) can be used to produce warm water by utilising cheap electricity from photovoltaic (PV) parks in the summer when there are many hours of sunlight.
