Adjusting heat demands using the operational data of district heating systems

Energy, 2021
The main objective of this study is to investigate variations and peak values of actual heat demand profiles in a centralized district heating (DH) network. Operational heat data is utilized to discover that almost no weather correlation exists during warm months when supply temperatures exceed 60°C; thermal inertia of buildings affects their behavior ...

The Demand for Space Heating Energy

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1975
PREVIOUS studies of residential and commercial energy use, exclusive of electricity, have generally found that price is not a significant determinant of demand.' This paper analyzes the demand for space heating energy using cross-sectional data by state for 1971.

Calculation of building heating demand in EPIQR

Energy and Buildings, 2000
Calculations of energy requirements for space heating in EPIQR are based on an existing computer programme, made according to the European standard EN 832:1998. The programme was originally a stand-alone programme with its own user interface. This has been stripped of and the source code re-compiled into a dynamic link library (DLL) controlled by EPIQR.

Household demand for home heating

Resources and Energy, 1982
Abstract The provision of home heating services involves choice of both a heating system and a fuel input. The decision is usefully analyzed by comparison of net benefits associated with optimal use of alternative system — fuel combinations which leads to adoption of that alternative with maximum net benefits.

Microeconomics and the demand for space heating

Energy, 1977
Abstract The techniques of economic utility theory are combined with the technical equations for heat loss from a dwelling to give insight into the variation of consumer demand for space heating. A theoretical relationship is established between the performance of the occupied dwelling as the external temperature falls and the short-run income ...

A National Heat Demand Model for Germany

2017
Spatial microsimulation models can be used for the analysis of complex systems. In this paper we make use of a spatial microsimulation model for the estimation of heat demand for Germany at a NUTS–3 level. The presented model creates a synthetic building stock by re-weighting the national microdata sample to small areas (NUTS–3) statistics with help of

Weather and the Demand for Space Heat

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1961
W HILE we can as yet do little to change the weather, we can nevertheless use weather variations to explain an occasional economic phenomenon. Considerable work has already been done on the connection between weather and the use of specific fuels in specific areas.' Recently, J. R. N. Stone and D. A. Rowe have related quarterly averages of temperature,

Forecasting Regional Demand for Heating Fuel

Growth and Change, 1978
A more-efficient regional strategy is developed for predicting the residential heating demand for liquified petroleum (LP) gas. Reliable weather forecasting is necessary to predict fuel consumption, although government agencies ignore weather forecasts in setting allocation levels.

The demands for motor gasoline and heating oils.

1958
The objectives of this study are twofold - first, to examine the determinants and characteristics of the demands for two principal petroleum products, and second, to evaluate the impact of these demands on the nature of competition and the activities of suppliers in the two product markets. By definition, this study of the petroleum industry is limited
