in italy, several policy measures have been implemented in order to increase energy efficiencyand reduce carbon emissions especially concerning the household sector. however, in order to design andimplement these policy measures efficiently, it is necessary to get a better understanding of the factorsinfluencing household energy behavior. in this paper, by using disaggregated data from the 2009...

A method based on extensive laboratory and field measurements was developed to determine the dependence of specific rock cutting energy (SEc) drilling (SEd) for machines with different operating design characteristics similar breaking mechanics. Laboratory were performed a linear device drill, using measurement system measure electrical power forces force/torque transducers. Field consumption c...

this present research work was carried out to evaluate the energy consumption in a typical iranian building based on the forecast of climatic variables. thus, the lars-wg model was validated for some northwest stations of iran, including tabriz, ardebil, oromieh, kermanshah, hamedan, sannandaj, qazvin, and zanjan. the average monthly outdoor temperature was forecasted from 2011 to 2100. the rel...

objective: the main objective pursued in this paper is to investigate the energy consumption for drying of potato slices using vacuum-infrared drying method. methods: drying of potato slices with the thicknesses of 1, 2 and 3 mm were conducted at vacuum levels of zero (without vacuum), 20, 80 and 140 mm [hg], infrared radiation at power levels of 100, 150 and 200 w in the three repetition. resu...

the municipality of tehran is intending to construct a permanent international flower exhibition. the activities for construction began in the year 2006. the exhibition has three distinct areas namely “northern area”,”southern area” and “central area”. in northern and southern area the flowers are supposed to be preserved and in central area, they will be sold out. in the present st...

due to shortage of precipitation and the spatial and periodical disparity of rainfalls, iran iscounted among the arid and semi-arid countries of the world, and therefore the water utilities have put thecontrol of consumption and efficient use of water high on their priorities. water consumption management isconsidered as a field of energy management, and the impacts of effective measure related...

in recent years, the issue of energy consumption modeling techniques in the building sector has been widely considered by researchers and managers. researches indicate that energy consumption in residential sector is one of the main parts of the total consumption. moreover, the urban residence is supposed as a significant consumer of energy in every country and therefore a focus for energy cons...

Satellite edge computing (SEC) has garnered significant attention for its potential to deliver services directly users. However, the uneven distribution of receiving tasks among satellites in constellation can lead utilization resources. This paper proposes a task offloading strategy SEC that aims minimize average delay and energy consumption by assigning them appropriate satellite nodes. The a...

The potential for lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries and supercapacitors (SCs) to overcome long-term (one day) short-term (a few minutes) solar irradiance fluctuations with high-temporal-resolution s) on a photovoltaic-powered reverse osmosis membrane (PV-membrane) system was investigated. Experiments were conducted using synthetic brackish water (5-g/L sodium chloride) varied battery capacities (1...
