Renewable energy systems are an alternative to existing achieve savings and carbon dioxide emission reduction. Subsequently, preventing the reckless installation of renewable formulating appropriate policies, including sales strategies, is critical. Thus, this study aimed reduction through optimal selection capacity lifetime solar thermal (ST) ground source heat pump (GSHP) that can reduce buil...

A fully wicked ground source heat pipe (GSHP) is numerically employed and simulated to transfer thermal energy from the subsurface surface pavements reduce environmental temperature fluctuations in pavement, thereby reducing stresses increasing pavement life. The GSHP can also or eliminate snow ice buildup on surfaces. Each single was modeled a two-dimensional axisymmetric cross-section using C...

In cold regions, due o the impact of climatic conditions, heat load in winter and cooling summer are unbalanced. long-term operation ground-source pump (GSHP), soil imbalance phenomenon has still not been successfully solved. Therefore, this study took GSHP a public building area northern China as research object. Based on unit performance data system over 8 years measured temperature field, ef...

This paper proposes and demonstrates, in full scale, a novel type of energy geostructure (“the Climate Road”) that combines ground-source heat pump (GSHP) with sustainable urban drainage system (SUDS) by utilizing the gravel roadbed simultaneously as an source rainwater retarding basin. The Road measures 50 m × 8 1 (length, width, depth, respectively) has 800 geothermal piping embedded roadbed,...

Buildings play an important role to meet Sustainable Development Goals, especially regarding the use of resources and greenhouse gas emissions. They are increasingly designed with energy-efficient solutions their operations, while related natural is still insufficiently considered. In this article, a methodology in Building Information Modeling proposed measure resource climate footprints build...

Climate change continues to affect the lives of individuals across world, creating a rise in demand for new technologies that can slow down impacts climate change. Shanghai, one largest cities has highest carbon emission levels. In recent years, research and development energy-efficient have gained more attention. The Shanghai Tower is pioneer green building design prominent example Shanghai’s ...

The objective of this paper was to design energy integrated solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) based microcombined heat and power (micro-CHP) systems using syngas derived from lignocellulosic biomass waste. The novel contributions of this work include 1) integration of syngas between a community-scale biomass gasification plant and SOFC based micro-CHP systems in buildings; 2) heat integrated designs...

Compared to mechanical compressors, ejector-based refrigeration systems can make direct use of many forms thermal energy, including waste heat, solar thermal, or biogases. It is known that SE have a lower efficiency compared compressors because their performance at high compression ratios. In the present work, binary fluid ejector heat pumps with are presented based on proper selection fluids a...
