Optimization of Solar District Heating & Cooling Systems
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2022 Abstract The present work proposes a comparison between three solar-powered district heating and cooling systems, namely: 1) centralized district heating & cooling (DHC) system; 2) 5th-generation district heating & cooling (5GDHC) system and 3) individual AC plants (HHC, Home Heating and Cooling), in different climate conditions.
