Load Control Strategies for Electric Water Heaters with Thermal Stratification
This semester project investigates strategies aimed at controlling the aggregate power demand of large groups of domestic electric water heaters. An existing model of a single electric water heater that considers thermal stratification along the height of the hot water tank was tuned and verified using experimental data. The tuned model was then incorporated into an existing model of a water he...
متن کاملManagement of electric and thermal energy consumption in residential building
In residential section, Studies have shown that, along with the use of various household consumption management techniques, the so-called hubs of energy can also be used to improve the performance and management of home energy management. In each electrical energy system, customers are aiming to minimize their energy costs. In this paper, it can be seen that in each home a home-made residential...
متن کاملRetrofitting Conventional Electric Domestic Hot Water Heaters to Solar Water Heating Systems in Single-Family Houses—Model Validation and Optimization
System cost reductions and development of standardised plug-and-function systems are some of the most important goals for solar heating technology development. Retrofitting hot water boilers in single-family houses when installing solar collectors has the potential to significantly reduce both material and installation costs. In this study, the TRNSYS simulation models of the retrofitting solar...
متن کاملThermal to Electric Energy Conversion
As research in the area of excess power production moves forward, issues associated with thermal to electric conversionbecome increasingly important. This paper provides a brief tutorial on basic issues, including the Carnot limit, entropy, and thermoelectric conversion. Practical thermal to electric conversion is possible well below the Carnot limit, and this leads to a high threshold for self...
متن کاملInfluence of Tube Arrangement on the Thermal Performance of Indirect Water Bath Heaters
Natural convection heat transfer from a tube bundle in the indirect water bath heaters is investigated. A computer-code is used for the solution of the governing equations of mass, momentum and energy transfer based on the SIMPLE-C algorithm. Simulations are carried out for the gas pressure station heater of Kermanshah city with various tube bundle arrangements. In order to validate the numeric...
