  1. 6. 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

  2. 7. Comparative Assessment of Fuel-Based Systems for Space Heating

    Author : Åsa Karlsson; Miljö- och energisystem; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiforskning; Energy research; cogeneration; district heating; electric heating; external cost; carbon dioxide mitigation; detached houses; fossil fuels; Energy systems; bioenergy;

    Abstract : Replacing fossil fuels by biofuels and increasing energy efficiency are often considered to be options for reducing the net emission of greenhouse gases. This thesis presents the results of analyses of energy efficiency, emission and cost of whole energy system chains, from the natural resource to the end user when heating detached houses in a Swedish context.

  3. 8. The future load curve of the Swedish building stock – Interactions between the heating load and district heating

    Author : Dmytro Romanchenko; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal energy storage; District heating; demand response; buildings; optimisation; space heating;

    Abstract : In line with global efforts directed against climate change, the building sector is required to undergo significant changes in terms of its energy management. This is the case for both the use of energy (reduced energy consumption) and the supply of energy (heat and electricity), and how these two interact. READ MORE

  4. 9. Importance of the demand-supply balance in district heating systems

    Author : Dmytro Romanchenko; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flexibility; Space heating; demand response; buildings; optimisation; thermal energy storage; district heating;

    Abstract : In line with global efforts directed against climate change, the building sector will have to undergo significant changes in terms of its energy use, along with the transformation of the energy system. The scope of this thesis is limited to the energy supply and demand within district heating (DH) systems, with the emphasis on the space heating demand in buildings. READ MORE

  5. 10. High altitude ion heating observed by the Cluster spacecraft

    Author : Martin Waara; Hans Nilsson; Kristina Lynch; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Space physics; Rymdfysik; rymd- och plasmafysik; Space and Plasma Physics;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with heating of outowing oxygen ions at high altitude above the polar cap using data from the Cluster spacecraft. oInospheric plasma may flow up from the ionosphere but at velocities which are low enough that the ions are still gravitationally bound. For the ions to overcome gravity, further acceleration is needed. READ MORE
