In this research, the thermodynamic investigation of the tri-generation system is performed by the first and second law of Thermodynamics. The trigeneration system under study consists of three subsystems including the solar subsystem, Kalina subsystem and lithium bromide-water absorption chiller subsystem. The proposed system generates power, cooling and hot water using solar energy. The syste...

One of the most widely known solar thermal applications is solar water heating. In terms of installation expenditures and energy cost over the total life of the system, solar water heating technology has proven to be cost efficient for several domestic and industrial applications. Technological practicability of these systems has long been recognized and is presently employed in commercial sect...

The energy saving is becoming an important topic also in the food industry. For this reason, it is important to use multi-energy systems to produce hot water for processes and space heating. The application considered in this paper, which concerns a chocolate factory, focuses on the hot water production through a multi-source storage tank. The water inside the tank is heated by four solar panel...

The extension of piped water supplies in Anglesey, North Wales, 30 years ago and the consequent introduction of domestic hot water systems was followed by an epidemic of appendicitis. This occurred while appendicitis rates were falling elsewhere in Britain. The diet of Anglesey is unremarkable. This is further evidence that epidemics of appendicitis occur during the transition to 'western' hygi...

Currently, many residential buildings and businesses use solar water heating systems. This is an economical reliable type of hot supply. Heating for domestic purposes or using energy a natural simple method saving preserving fossil fuel reserves. The renewable sources relevant all countries the world. article deals with issue improving efficiency heat supply system based on vacuum collectors ci...

Legionella are widely distributed in natural and man-made environments. In these environments, legionella can utilize metabolic products excreted by blue-green algae and other general bacteria, on the other hand they can multiply intracellularly within amoebaebody. The major infection route of legionella is via 1-5 |Lim diameter aerosols which contain the legionella and reach humanalveolar sept...

A building integrated holographic concentrating photovoltaic-thermal system has been optically and energetically simulated. The system has been designed to be superimposed into a solar shading louvre; in this way the concentrating unit takes profit of the solar altitude tracking, which the shading blinds already have, to increase system performance. A dynamic energy simulation has been conducte...

Energy consumption for hot water production is a major draw in high efficiency buildings. Optimizing this has typically been approached from a thermodynamics perspective, decoupled from occupant influence. Furthermore, optimization usually presupposes existence of a detailed dynamics model for the hot water system. These assumptions lead to suboptimal energy efficiency in the real world. In thi...
