Daily heat load variations in Swedish district heating systems

open access: yesApplied Energy, 2013
AbstractHeat load variations in district heating systems are both seasonal and daily. Seasonal variations have mainly its origin from variations in outdoor temperature over the year. The origin of daily variations is mainly induced by social patterns due to customer social behaviours. Heat load variations cause increased costs because of increased peak
