  1. 6. Ice free roads using hydronic heating pavement with low temperature: Thermal properties of asphalt concretes and numerical simulations

    Författare :Raheb Mirzanamadi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal properties; slippery condition; hydronic heating pavement; energy harvesting; asphalt concrete; road; anti-icing; finite element method;

    Sammanfattning : A traditional method to mitigate the slippery conditions of a road is to spread out salt and sand on the road surface. However, salting causes corrosion on the road infrastructures, damage to surrounding vegetation and salification of fresh water. Hence, there is a need for alternative solutions to mitigate the slippery conditions. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Modelling the dynamics of domestic low-temperature heat pump heating systems for improved performance and thermal comfort : a systems approach

    Författare :Dimitra Sakellari; Per Lundqvist; Savvas Tassou; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Technology; heat pump; domestic heating and ventilation; low-temperature hydronic heat distribution; systems approach; integration; simulation; energy efficiency; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : The present environmental concerns and the rising human requirement for solutions with better comfort and lower costs have resulted in an increased awareness for the energy use in the built environment. Technical advances in building structural systems and materials, heating and other comfort-providing systems and controlling strategies all lead to the integration of building technology with the function of buildings and the aesthetics.

  3. 8. Low temperature deicing of road infrastructure using renewable energy

    Författare :Josef Johnsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; borehole thermal energy storage; renewable energy; BTES; numerical simulations; Pavement solar collector; Hydronic heated pavements;

    Sammanfattning : Winter road maintenance is costly but it is inevitable since it is necessary to keep roads accessible and safe during winter. Current winter road maintenance methods use annually 600 000 tons of salt, in the Nordic countries. The salt ends up in the environment along the roads and results in environmental challenges.

  4. 9. Utilizing solar energy for anti-icing road surfaces using hydronic heating pavement with low temperature

    Författare :Raheb Mirzanamadi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; solar energy; asphalt concrete; ground heat exchanger; anti-icing; optimization;

    Sammanfattning : During summer, the surface temperature of an asphalt road pavement can rise up to 70°C due to absorbed solar radiation. The high temperature degrades the performance of the asphalt concrete by accelerating the thermal oxidation and plastic deformation, especially under heavy traffic loads. LÄS MER

  5. 10. District heating system analysis and challenges within the urban transformation of Kiruna

    Författare :Mattias Vesterlund; Jan Dahl; Henrik Saxen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; District heating; analysis; optimization; design; heat production; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : There is currently an ongoing urban transformation in a small Swedish town named Kiruna, it is located in the very north of Sweden well above the Arctic Circle in a sub-arctic climate. Large part of the town will be relocated due to the ground deformation that is caused by the progressing iron ore mining activity and it is affecting all infrastructures of the town. LÄS MER
