Anotation:

Principles and basics of alternative energy sources use in buildings. Solar energy. Heat pumps. Biomass utilization.

Study targets:

Gaining theoretical overview on ways of alternative energy sources use and basics of AES application design for buildings.

Course outlines:

Solar energy. Photothermal conversion of solar radiation. Solar collectors. Solar thermal systems - design and balancing.Solar systems components and their design. Heat pumps and components. Heat pump coefficient of performance. Heat pump operation. Sources of low potential heat for heat pumps (air, water, ground, waste heat). Design of low potential heat soursces. Energy use of biomass. Types of biomass (fytomass, animal, waste). Termochemical conversion of biomass. Combustion and combustion boilers.

Exercises outline:

Geometry of solar radiation. Efficiency and thermal output of solar collector. Dimensioning of solar collector area for water heating systems. Energy gains calculation. Heat pump cycle in diagramm pressure-enthalpy. Dimensioning of low-potential heat sources for heat pumps (ground bore holes and flat collectors, wells, waste air). Design of heat pump for heating (heat load, heating water temperature). Dimensioning of biomass fuel store.
