On the wake deflection of vertical axis wind turbines by pitched blades
Wake losses are a critical consideration in wind farm design. The ability to steer and deform wakes can result in increased wind farm power density and reduced energy costs and can be used to optimize wind farm designs.

Performance Assessment of District Energy Systems with Common Elements for Heating and Cooling
District energy systems, especially those integrating renewables or low exergy sources, have multiple elements for generating heating and cooling. Some of these elements might be used for both purposes: heating and cooling, either simultaneously or ...

Energy Performance Certificates—The Role of the Energy Price [PDF]
Energy performance certificates (EPCs) were introduced to give property buyers better information about the energy efficiency of dwellings and provide incentives to make energy-efficient investments. Previous studies on the effect of EPCs on property value have yielded divergent results, with some studies finding that energy labels affect property ...

Performance Optimization With Energy Packets [PDF]
We investigate how the flow of energy and the flow of jobs in a service system can be used to minimize the average response time to jobs that arrive according to random arrival processes at the servers. An interconnected system of workstations (WSs) and energy storage (ES) units that are fed with randomly arriving harvested energy is analyzed by means ...
