Renewable Energy for Rural Electrification and Development in Mozambique
Rural areas continue to be home to the majority of the population in Africa. The importance of providing modern energy to rural areas cannot, therefore, be overemphasized. No wonder that at presently the major energy resource in Continue reading
The Performance of the Energy Machine: A Comparative Study of the Energy Machine and a Conventional Heat Pump System
The Achilles heel of the heat pump technology has for long been the low efficiency occurring during domestic hot water production. The problem is the high condensation pressure needed to Continue reading
Transmission Alternatives for Grid Connection of Large Offshore Wind Farms at Large Distance
With the great possibility of offshore wind power that can be installed in the world seas, offshore wind power is starting to get and important source of Continue reading
Investigation of Spent Nuclear Fuel Pool Coolability
The natural catastrophe at Fukushima Dai-ichi 2011 enlightened the nuclear community. This study reveals the non-negligible risks regarding the short term storage of Continue reading
Automated Greenhouse
In this thesis an automated greenhouse was built with the purpose of investigating the watering system’s reliability and if a desired range of temperatures can be maintained. The microcontroller used to Continue reading
Experimental Analysis of Variable Capacity Heat Pump System Equipped With Vapour Injection and Permanent Magnet Motor
This study analyzes the performance of variable capacity heat pump scroll compressor which is equipped with vapour injection and permanent magnet motor. Refrigerant used in the system is R410A. The study is divided in two phases. In first phase, tests are Continue reading
Ecological and Exergetic Analysis of Hydrogen Production in a Sugar-Ethanol Plant
This work aims an ecological and exergetic analysis of the hydrogen production by steam reforming of part of the ethanol produced in a sugar-ethanol plant. The Pioneiros Distillery, located in São Paulo, is used as Continue reading
Feasibility Study for Upgrading the Current Heat Distribution Network of an Existing Building Complex to a Smart Thermal Grid
A feasibility study on upgrading an existing heat distribution network to a low-temperature distribution grid has been carried out during this project. The integration of a solar thermal system combined with a borehole thermal energy storage (BTES) for covering the Continue reading
High Flying, Electrifying: Assessment and Extension of a Kite Model for Power Production
This thesis has its starting point in an existing computer model of an electricity generating kite, from Heidelberg University. The modelled kite has Continue reading
Assessing and Predicting the Impact of Energy Conservation Measures Using Smart Meter Data
Buildings account for around 40 percent of the primary energy consumption in Europe and in the United States. They also hold tremendous energy savings potential: 15 to 29 percent by 2020 for the European building stock according to Continue reading
