  1. 1. Technical performance modelling and optimization of PVT collectors in GSHP integration

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

    Author : Marin Courcault; [2023]
    Keywords : PVT; ISO9806:2017; mass flow; use conditions; test conditions; coefficients optimization; TRNSYS; PVT; ISO9806:2017; massflöde; användningsförhållanden; testförhållanden; optimering av koefficienter; TRNSYS;

    Abstract : In order to contribute to reducing the CO2 emissions related to heating in housing buildings, PVT+GSHP systems appear to be interesting solutions and therefore need to be further investigated to optimise their design and increase their deployment on the field. This thesis focused on building PVT model, using the ISO9806:2017, to be integrated in a PVT+GSHP model and determining optimal PVT design parameters for this system. READ MORE

  3. 2. Assessment of the integration of solar heat power into food drying processes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Charalampos Psilopoulos; [2023]
    Keywords : Sustainable; sustainability; co2 reduction; feasibility; solar thermal; direct steam generation; drying; food industry; scope 1 emissions; sdg; sustainable development goals; spray drying; drum drying; powder; food; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The long-lasting usage of fossil fuels has brought its negative impact on the planet and thus the society is turning towards more environmentally sustainable solutions in every aspect of life. This master’s thesis discusses the novel topic of integrating concentrated solar thermal collectors, which directly produce steam, to drying processes in the food industry, which is proven to currently emit significant amounts of Greenhouse Gases (GHGs).

  4. 3. Life Cycle Assessment of a small scale, solar driven HVR water purification system

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

    Author : Sharang Kolathur; [2022]
    Keywords : life cycle assessment; air gap membrane distillation; solar energy; levelized cost; grid operated system; livscykelanalys; luftgapmembrandestillation; solenergi; utjämnade kostnader; nätdrivet system;

    Abstract : Water purification systems have made access to drinking water easier by treating water sources which previously could not be used for drinking. Such systems however require energy and materials to build and operate which means they have environmental impacts. READ MORE

  5. 4. Effects of solar parabolic- trough collectors in small- scale district heating systems

    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för byggd miljö och energiteknik (BET)

    Author : Alejandro Monterrubio; [2022]
    Keywords : Parabolic-trough collector; direct normal radiation; diffuse radiation; insolation; carbon abatement cost; biomass; District Heating; Levelized cost of energy;

    Abstract : Reducing carbon emissions in our societies requires a massive shift towards renewables. In Sweden, biomass is the dominant source for the district heat production, but growing demand for biomass in other sectors may cause pressure on it. READ MORE

  6. 5. Comparative simulation of PVT designs for three locations in Europe with different simulation tools

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem och byggnadsteknik

    Author : María Teresa Rodríguez Rubio; [2022]
    Keywords : Agriculture; Energy; European Commission; Horizon 2020; Innovation Project; Livestock farms; Renewable Energy; RES4LIVE; Solar Energy;

    Abstract : In this thesis, different types of PVT (photovoltaic-thermal collectors) for three different farms in Europe will be studied, as part of the RES4LIVE project from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Action programme. A suitable renewable energy system will be proposed for each farm, considering the temperature range requirement and the climate conditions in each farm. READ MORE
