  1. 1. Hydronic Heating Systems The Effect of Design on System Sensitivity

    Author : Anders Trüschel; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; shunt group; controllability; district heating; room temperature; air heater; heating coil; thermal power output; deviations; water return temperature; valve group; hydronic heating; radiator system; P-band;

    Abstract : This thesis starts from the recognition that a hydronic heating system can be optimised, but can never be totally perfect. Sooner or later, in practice, deviations - caused by one or more components having slightly different characteristics or settings than they are assumed or supposed to have - arise. READ MORE

  2. 2. Thermal system analysis of embedded building integrated heating - Numerical model and validation of hydronic floor heating systems

    Author : Henrik Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; radiant heating; floor heating; low temperature hydronic heating; whole building thermal system analysis; Simulink modelling; Building integrated heating;

    Abstract : A numerical simulation tool for building integrated heating (BIH) systems is developed. BIH is defined as a heat supply system that maintains the indoor thermal comfort within acceptable limits by means of a controlled heat supply to the inner of the building envelope/structure.

  3. 3. Efficiency factors for space heating system in buildings

    Author : Christian Brembilla; Thomas Olofsson; Ronny Östin; Mohsen Soleimani-Mohseni; Bjørn Reidar Sørensen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Efficiency factors of space heating; hydronic panel radiator; hydronic floor heating; multilayer wall; numerical modelling; room control volume; decrement factor; time delay; heat conduction; heat convection; heat radiation; heat storage; thermal inertia; Euler solver; Newton-Raphson method; synthetic weather file; feedback and feed-forward control strategies; adaptive control; validation methodology; uncertainty bands; robustness of model predictions; thermostatic booth simulator; differential sensitivity analysis; transient model of panel radiator with multiple storage elements; active thermal mass; benchmark performance indicator; linear regression model; calibration through uncertainty bands; hybrid model of low-energy building: law driven data driven; outdoor temperature compensation heating curve; solar radiation model; finite difference method; heat equation;

    Abstract : The thesis focuses on the efficiency of the space heating system. In particular, the efficiency factors measure the efficiency of thermal zone. The efficiency factors measures how the energy is used in a space heating. READ MORE

  4. 4. IMPROVED SUPPLY OF DISTRICT HEAT TO HYDRONIC SPACE HEATING SYSTEMS

    Author : Patrick Lauenburg; Energihushållning; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; low return temperature; natural circulation; District heating; hydronic space heating;

    Abstract : The studies presented in this thesis concern hydronic space heating systems connected via heat exchangers to a district heating network: referred to as an indirect connection. The objective has been to improve the reliability of district heat supplies and to lower the return temperature from consumer substations. READ MORE

  5. 5. Capacity Control of Residential Heat Pump Heating Systems

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; RISE; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy efficiency; variable-speed; air-source; performance; hydronic heating system; ground-source; heat pump; defrost; optimisation; circulator; capacity control;

    Abstract : Heat pumps used for space and sanitary hot water heating of residential buildings are increasingly popular in northern Europe. As they compete with other heating equipment and in order to limit the environmental impact of their use, it is very important that heat pumps are energy efficient. READ MORE
