  1. 11. Modeling and Simulation of Electricity Consumption Profiles in the Northern European Building Stock

    Author : Claes Sandels; Lars Nordström; Palensky Peter; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Demand Response; Flexible loads; Building stock energy-use; Bottom-up simulation models; Load profiles; Non-homogeneous Markov-chains; End-user behavior; Lumped capacitance models; HVAC system control; Smart Grid.; Efterfrågeflexibilitet; Flexibla laster; Energianvändning i byggnadsstocken; Botten-upp-simuleringsmodeller; Elförbrukningsprofiler; Icke-homogena Markovkedjor; Slutanvändarbeteenden; Värmedynamikmodellering; Styrning av HVAC-laster; Smarta elnät.;

    Abstract : The electric power systems are currently being transformed through the integration of intermittent renewable energy resources and new types of electric loads. These developments run the risk of increasing mismatches between electricity supply and demand, and may cause non-favorable utilization rates of some power system components. READ MORE

  2. 12. Demand based control of indoor climate in office buildings. Design of local and central feed-forward control systems for high comfort, low energy use and low peak power

    Author : Mattias Gruber; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; demand based control; IAQ; central control; local control; disturbance rejection; thermal climate; HVAC; energy efficiency; feed-forward; Building services engineering; office buildings;

    Abstract : In this work, a number of novel strategies for controlling the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems in office buildings have been designed and evaluated. The purpose of the control strategies is to improve the match between what is supplied by the HVAC-systems and what is required to achieve a desirable indoor climate in the building. READ MORE

  3. 13. Energy Savings Using a Direct Current Distribution Network in a PV and Battery Equipped Residential Building

    Author : Patrik Ollas; Caroline Markusson; Mattias Persson; Torbjörn Thiringer; Jan-Olof Dalenbäck; RISE; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Direct-Current Distribution; Residential Buildings; Battery Energy Storage System; Battery Modeling; Solar Photovoltaic System; System Performance; Energy Efficiency; Energy Savings; PV Utilisation;

    Abstract : Energy from solar photovoltaic (PV) are generated as direct current (DC) and almost all of today’s electrical loads in residential buildings, household appliances and HVAC system (Heating Ventilation and Air-conditioning) are operated on DC. For a conventional alternating current (AC) distribution system this requires the need for multiple conversion steps before the final user-stage. READ MORE

  4. 14. Machine learning for building energy system analysis

    Author : Fan Zhang; Johan Håkansson; Chris Bales; Stefan Byttner; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; district heating; machine learning; deep learning; HVAC; neural networks;

    Abstract : Buildings account for approximately 40% of the global energy, and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) contributes to a large proportion of building energy consumption. Two main negative characteristics that contribute to performance degradation and energy waste in an HVAC system are inappropriate control strategies and faults. READ MORE

  5. 15. Applications of Finite Element Simulation and Mixed Reality in Architecture and Built Environment

    Author : Carl Lundholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; augmented reality; FEniCS; multimesh; CutFEM; multi-objective optimization; mixed reality; HoloLens; virtual reality; view computation; finite element method;

    Abstract : This thesis presents applications in architecture and built environment that are based on the finite element method and mixed reality. The work consists of two main components: two projects presented in three papers. The first project (presented in Paper I) concerns an application in urban design, thus built environment on a larger scale. READ MORE
