Challenges in Smart Low-temperature District Heating Development

Temperature Prediction in District Heating Systems with cFIR models

Current methodologies for the optimal operation of district heating systems are based on model predictive control. In complement to load forecasts, accurate predictions (up to 12-hour ahead) of the water temperature at critical points of the networks are crucial for meeting constraints related to consumers while minimizing the production costs for the heat supplier. The paper introduces a new f...

Temperature prediction at critical points in district heating systems

Current methodologies for the optimal operation of district heating systems use model predictive control. Accurate forecasting of the water temperature at critical points is crucial for meeting constraints related to consumers while minimizing the production costs for the heat supplier. A new forecasting methodology based on conditional Finite Impulse Response (cFIR) models is introduced, for w...

District Heating in Buildings

This paper is published by Euroheat & Power. Our aim is to inform about district heating and cooling as efficient and environmentally benign energy solutions that make use of resources that otherwise would be wasted, delivering reliable and comfortable heating and cooling in return.

Performances of Low Temperature Radiant Heating Systems

The low temperature radiant systems are very complex because they involve different mechanisms of heat transfer: heat conduction through the walls, heat convection between the heating panel and the indoor air, heat radiation between the heating panel and the surrounding areas, and the heat conduction between the floor and the ground. The main essence of the low-temperature air systems is to pro...
