As solar heating systems become a commercial reality, greater efforts are now being employed to incorporate solar cooling components in order to obtain a complete solar heating and cooling system, and thus take advantage of the cost-effectiveness of year-round use of the solar equipment. The solar heating and cooling system design presented in this paper incorporates design considerations which...

load management and cost optimization are among the important factors in trigenerationsystems and combined cooling, heating and power (cchp) systems. in this study, an innovative cchpsystem uses a gas turbine as the prime mover and has a heat recovery steam generator (hrsg) in addition toan auxiliary boiler, electric and absorption chillers. the system is tied with the bulk electric grid; to ex...

During thermoregulation in the bearded dragon Pogona barbata, heart rate when heating is significantly faster than when cooling at any given body temperature (heart rate hysteresis), resulting in faster rates of heating than cooling. However, the mechanisms that control heart rate during heating and cooling are unknown. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that changes in cholinergi...

this paper describes a study that starts with an analysis of typical energy demand profiles in a hospital setting followed by a case study of a combined cooling, heating, and power (cchp) generation system.cchp is an autonomous system that combines the generation of electrical, heating, and cooling energy.the driving units are two high-efficiency gas engines that produce electrical and heat ene...

greenhouse structure has an important role in success of greenhouse production. this research was conducted to study problems related to vegetable greenhouse structure in khuzestan province for on year(2011-2012). for this purpose, 21 greenhouses were selected by simple randomized samplang and questionnaires were completed. the results revealed that the major problems in greenhouses vegetable p...
