A Thermo-Economic and Emissions Analysis of Different Sanitary-Water Heating Units Embedded Within Fourth-Generation District-Heating Systems

open access: yesJournal of Energy Resources Technology, 2018
This paper presents the results of a thermo-economic (TE), primary-energy-factor and CO2-equivalent (CO2 (eq)), emissions-sensitivity analysis for the preparation of sanitary hot water (SHW) in fourth-generation district-heating systems. The annual required additional heat for the SHW provided by a local heating unit, based on an air-to-water heat pump

Evaluation of the industrial waste heat potential for its recovery and integration into a fourth generation district heating system

open access: yesEnergy Procedia, 2018
Abstract The transition towards 4 th generation district heating systems are widely studied in last years. In this research, the economic reasonability of recovered industrial waste heat usage in the district heating system is investigated. Research is based on a case situation with an actual district heating system and nearby located factory with ...

Process‐Informed Analysis of As‐Built Metal Additive Surface Features

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article introduces a novel method for feature‐based surface texture characterisation directly incorporating manufacturing variables into the feature extraction workflow. This marks a major step towards identifying process‐specific surface properties and their influence on part function and hence a holistic understanding of process–structure ...

Impact of CO2 prices on the design of a highly decarbonised coupled electricity and heating system in Europe

open access: yes, 2018
Ambitious targets for renewable energy and CO2 taxation both represent political instruments for decarbonisation of the energy system. We model a high number of coupled electricity and heating systems, where the primary sources of CO2 neutral energy are ...
