Distributed heat generation in a district heating system

open access: yes, 2016
District heating (OH) systems need to be improved  regarding integration  of decentralised  heat generation. Micro production, prosumers and smart grids are terms becoming more and more common  in  connection  to  the  power  grid.  Concerning district  heating,  the  development  is slower, although improving.

MANAGEMENT OF HEATING SYSTEMS USING MEDIUM POWER BOILERS

open access: yesNonconventional Technologies Review, 2018
Even if district heating represents currently the cheapest solution in production of thermal energy, this fact does not reflect in the preferences of Romanian consumers.

Wireless Sensor Networks for Optimisation of District Heating

open access: yes
The upgrading of the DH (district heating) system through installing WSN (wireless sensor networks)—a technology by which to monitor and control quality operation of the DH system will lead to more effective use of thermal energy, enabling also the ...

Discrepancies Between Micro Versus Macroscale Viscoelastic Properties in a Microplastic‐Tissue Composite Model

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the discrepancies between bulk mechanics and spatial mapping in a tissue‐mimetic hydrogel model. Microplastic particles create localized stiff mechanical microenvironments that are detectable by cellular‐scale nanoindentation but leave bulk properties unchanged as measured by rheology.

Smart Reuse of Waste Heat from Data Centres: Energy and Exergy Analysis for a District-Heating Network in Bulgaria

open access: yesEnergies
The rapid growth of data centres is driving higher electricity consumption and continuous generation of low-grade waste heat. Integrating this heat into district-heating networks offers a smart strategy for thermal management in urban areas.

Non‐Additive Criteria Assessment in Sustainability Evaluation of High Entropy Alloys: A Toxicity‐Weighted Framework

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Sustainability assessment requires methodologies that appropriately distinguish between additive and non‐additive material properties. A toxicity‐weighted scoring system is developed and applied that accounts for the disproportionate influence of highly toxic constituents through nonlinear weighting functions, providing more realistic estimates than ...

Performance of Riga District Heating Rehabilitation Project in Aspects of Automated Control

open access: yes
In the interconnected Rigas Siltums district heating system the only safe alternative for reconstruction of customer substations is to replace the elevator points by automated individual Heat Substations (AIHS) comprising heat exchangers for both the ...

Entropy‐Driven Design of Low‐Melting‐Point Alloys via Compositionally Complex Strategy

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional low‐melting‐point alloys (LMPAs) are limited by a narrow compositional space and inherent property trade‐offs. This review presents an entropy‐driven design strategy that overcomes these limitations, ushering in a new class of low‐melting‐point compositionally complex alloys (LMCCAs).
