Download or read book Handbook of Low Temperature District Heating written by Roberto Garay-Martinez and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-10-30 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the history and evolution of district heating networks, with a focus on current and future issues of the district heating sector. Novel developments in the field of low temperature district heating are studied, limitations for safe operation and avoidance of bacteria are considered, and the associated improved performance of the system with fewer network losses is presented. This book showcases how the evolution of district heating networks is linked to the increased use of renewables and de-carbonized heat sources with specific focus to waste heat streams and solar energy systems. Considering the novelty of these technologies, technological developments and funding schemes for these investments are still immature to some extent. For that reason, a comprehensive review of the main aspects of energy planning as well as district heating economics and financing schemes for large-scale investments in renewable energy systems for district energy systems is performed. In the light of digitalization, networks are increasingly monitored, allowing for a drastic change in the approach for network operation. This book also explores the increased digitization and monitoring of networks and how this impacts network operation. This book is of interest to engineers, academics and officials interested in energy systems, presenting readers with the key concepts and tools to adapt to the evolution of district heating into an integrated, digitized and higher performing system.
Download or read book A Handbook on Low Energy Buildings and District Energy Systems written by L.D. Danny Harvey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 717 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of Choice Magazine - Outstanding Academic Titles for 2007 Buildings account for over one third of global energy use and associated greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. Reducing energy use by buildings is therefore an essential part of any strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and thereby lessen the likelihood of potentially catastrophic climate change. Bringing together a wealth of hard-to-obtain information on energy use and energy efficiency in buildings at a level which can be easily digested and applied, Danny Harvey offers a comprehensive, objective and critical sourcebook on low-energy buildings. Topics covered include: thermal envelopes, heating, cooling, heat pumps, HVAC systems, hot water, lighting, solar energy, appliances and office equipment, embodied energy, buildings as systems and community-integrated energy systems (cogeneration, district heating, and district cooling). The book includes exemplary buildings and techniques from North America, Europe and Asia, and combines a broad, holistic perspective with technical detail in an accessible and insightful manner.

This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low temperature district heating (LTDH) offers possibilities for efficient heat supply based on renewable energies. For the analysis of LTDH, the exergetic assessment is a suitable method. Hence, an exergy-based assessment method was developed in which energy as well as economic and sustainability aspects are combined. As part of a technology comparison, the method is applied to case studies to verify the applicability of the assessment approach. The approach highlights innovative supply solutions by identifying the advantages and disadvantages of different supply strategies.
