District Power-To-Heat/Cool Complemented by Sewage Heat Recovery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
District heating and cooling (DHC), when combined with waste or renewable energy sources, is an environmentally sound alternative to individual heating and cooling systems in buildings.

Comparative Analysis of Levelized Cost of Heat in Implemented and Calculated Heat Supply Systems with Heat Pumps in Ukraine

open access: yesEnergies
The adoption of heat pumps in Ukraine is increasing, yet precise data on their economic viability are limited. This study compares the Levelized Cost of Heat (LCOH) in implemented and calculated heat pump systems under Ukrainian conditions.

Harmonic performance of heat-pumps

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2013
Reverse cycle air-source heat-pumps are an increasingly significant load in New Zealand and in many other countries. This has raised concern over the possible impact wide-spread use of heat-pumps will have on the grid.

THE SCOP OF AN AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMP: COMPARISON BETWEEN ON-OFF AND INVERTER HEAT PUMP

open access: yesJP Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2021
The paper investigates the seasonal performance of electric air-to-water heat pump comparing an on-off heat pump with an inverter-driven variable speed compressor. Reference is made to a heat pump for domestic space heating installed in Bologna, and the bin-method proposed by UNI/TS 11300-4 is employed in order to investigate the effect of external ...

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Long‐term culture of skin biopsies: maintenance of fibroblast production and competency of reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Skin biopsies taken from a patient with an ultra‐rare disorder as well as controls were cultured for up to 473 days. The chunks of skin were serially transferred to a new culture plate when confluent with fibroblasts. Different generations of fibroblasts were analyzed for cell and molecular properties, proliferation, and competence for reprogramming to
