Visualizing Energy Consumption of Radiators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Heating is a significant expenditure of many households today but the actual power consumption of the heating devices are seldom recognized. To help people understand and reflect upon their domestic energy consumption, we have designed an electrical ...

Thermodynamic Rarity and Recyclability of Raw Materials in the Energy Transition: The Need for an In-Spiral Economy

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
This paper presents a thermodynamic vision of the depletion of mineral resources. It demonstrates how raw materials can be better assessed using exergy, based on thermodynamic rarity, which considers scarcity in the crust and energy requirements for ...

Sufficiency in social practices: An underestimated potential for the transformation to a circular economy

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainability, 2023
To date, the circular economy has fallen short of its promise to reduce our resource demand and transform our production and consumption system. One key problem is the lack of understanding that highly promising strategies such as refuse, rethink, and ...

Profiling Software for Energy Consumption [PDF]

open access: yes2012 IEEE International Conference on Green Computing and Communications, 2012
The amount of energy consumed by computer systems can be lowered through the use of more efficient algorithms and software. Unfortunately, software developers lack the tools to pinpoint energy-hungry sections in their code and therefore have to rely on their intuition when trying to optimize their code for energy consumption. We have developed eprof, a

Do homes that are more energy efficient consume less energy?: A structural equation model for England's residential sector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Energy consumption from the residential sector is a complex sociotechnical problem that can be explained using a combination of physical, demographic and behavioural characteristics of a dwelling and its occupants.

Environmental Impacts of Promoting New Public Transport Systems in Urban Mobility: A Case Study

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems, 2017
Urban mobility is highly dependent on private vehicles causing pollution, traffic congestion and traffic accidents. The tram has become one of the most relevant public transport modes in those cities which need to reduce the private vehicle dependency ...

Thermodynamic Rarity and the Loss of Mineral Wealth

open access: yesEnergies, 2015
The second law of thermodynamics and, specifically, exergy analysis have been traditionally used for the assessment and optimization of energy systems. Nevertheless, as shown in this paper, exergy could also constitute a powerful tool for the evaluation ...

ecoBLE: A Low-Computation Energy Consumption Prediction Framework for Bluetooth Low Energy [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is a de-facto technology for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, promising very low energy consumption. However, this low energy consumption accounts only for the radio part, and it overlooks the energy consumption of other hardware and software components.
