Thermisch angetriebene (Adsorptions-)Kältemaschinen können mit einem verhältnismäßig geringen elektrischen Energieaufwand bzw. mit einer hohen elektrischen Leistungszahl Kälte bereitstel-len. Wird die zum Antrieb erforderliche Wärme aus industrieller Abwärme bereitgestellt, ist diese Kältebereitstellung energetisch effizienter als die Kältebereitstellung über eine Kompressionskäl-temaschine. Wird die Wärme jedoch in Kraft-Wärme-Kopplung bereitgestellt, ist die primärenergetische Bewertung sowohl von mehreren Teilwirkungsgraden als auch den Primärenergiefaktoren für den eingesetzten Brennstoff und die erzeugte bzw. bezogene elektrische Energie abhängig. Eine umfangreiche Messkampagne im Sommer 2018 liefert unter realitätsnahen Randbedingungen in einer Labor umgebung detaillierte Energiekennzahlen für einen typischen Tagesgang des Kältebedarfs. Damit gelingt es, Teilenergiekennwerte für die Planungspraxis abzuleiten und das Gesamtsystem energetisch mit einer konventionellen Kompressionskältemaschine zu vergleichen.
In this article we outline the model development planned within the joint projectModel-based city planningand application in climate change (MOSAIK). The MOSAIK project is funded by the German FederalMinistry of Education and Research (BMBF) within the frameworkUrban Climate Under Change ([UC]2)since 2016. The aim of MOSAIK is to develop a highly-efficient, modern, and high-resolution urban climatemodel that allows to be applied for building-resolving simulations of large cities such as Berlin (Germany).The new urban climate model will be based on the well-established large-eddy simulation code PALM, whichalready has numerous features related to this goal, such as an option for prescribing Cartesian obstacles. Inthis article we will outline those components that will be added or modified in the framework of MOSAIK.Moreover, we will discuss the everlasting issue of acquisition of suitable geographical information as inputdata and the underlying requirements from the model's perspective.
With the need for automatic control based supervisory controllers for complex energy systems, comes the need for reduced order system models representing not only the non-linear behaviour of the components but also certain unknown process dynamics like their internal control logic. At the Institute of Energy Systems Technology in Offenburg we have built a real-life microscale trigeneration plant and present in this paper a rational modelling procedure that satisfies the necessary characteristics for models to be applied in model predictive control for grid-reactive optimal scheduling of this complex energy system. These models are validated against experimental data and the efficacy of the methodology is discussed. Their application in the future for the optimal scheduling problem is also briefly motivated.
Membrane distillation (MD) is a thermal separation process which possesses a hydrophobic, microporous
membrane as vapor space. A high potential application for MD is the concentration of hypersaline brines, such as
e.g. reverse osmosis retentate or other saline effluents to be concentrated to a near saturation level with a Zero
Liquid Discharge process chain. In order to further commercialize MD for these target applications, adapted MD
module designs are required along with strategies for the mitigation of membrane wetting phenomena. This
work presents the experimental results of pilot operation with an adapted Air Gap Membrane Distillation
(AGMD) module for hypersaline brine concentration within a range of 0–240 g NaCl /kg solution. Key performance
indicators such as flux, GOR and thermal efficiency are analyzed. A new strategy for wetting mitigation
by active draining of the air gap channel by low pressure air blowing is tested and analyzed. Only small reductions
in flux and GOR of 1.2% and 4.1% respectively, are caused by air sparging into the air gap channel.
Wetting phenomena are significantly reduced by avoiding stagnant distillate in the air gap making the air blower
a seemingly worth- while additional system component.
Energy consumption for cooling is growing dramatically. In the last years, electricity peak consumption grew significantly, switching from winter to summer in many EU countries. This is endangering the stability of electricity grids. This article outlines a comprehensive analysis of an office building performances in terms of energy consumption and thermal comfort (in accordance with static – ISO 7730:2005 – and adaptive thermal comfort criteria – EN 15251:2007 –) related to different cooling concepts in six different European climate zones. The work is based on a series of dynamic simulations carried out in the Trnsys 17 environment for a typical office building. The simulation study was accomplished for five cooling technologies: natural ventilation (NV), mechanical night ventilation (MV), fan-coils (FC), suspended ceiling panels (SCP), and concrete core conditioning (CCC) applied in Stockholm, Hamburg, Stuttgart, Milan, Rome, and Palermo. Under this premise, the authors propose a methodology for the evaluation of the cooling concepts taking into account both, thermal comfort and energy consumption.
Techno-economic comparison of membrane distillation and MVC in a zero liquid discharge application
(2018)
Membrane distillation (MD) is a thermally driven membrane process for the separation of vapour from a liquid stream through a hydrophobic, microporous membrane. However, a commercial breakthrough on a large scale has not been achieved so far. Specific developments on MD technology are required to adapt the technology for applications in which its properties can potentially outshine state of the art technologies such as standard evaporation. In order to drive these developments in a focused manner, firstly it must be shown that MD can be economically attractive in comparison to state of the art systems. Thus, this work presents a technological design and economic analysis for AGMD and v-AGMD for application in a zero liquid discharge (ZLD) process chain and compares it to the costs of mechanical vapour compression (MVC) for the same application. The results show that MD can potentially be ~40% more cost effective than MVC for a system capacity of 100 m3/day feed water, and up to ~75% more cost effective if the MD is driven with free waste heat.
Mit längerfristigen Nutzerbefragungen in zwei unmittelbar benachbarten Bürogebäuden in Freiburg wurden das Temperaturempfinden der Nutzer und deren Zufriedenheit mit dem thermischen Raumkomfort zweimal täglich erfasst. Ein Bürogebäude wird im Sommer mit einem maschinellen Nachtlüftungskonzept konditioniert und das zweite verfügt über eine Betonkerntemperierung und eine Zu‐ und Abluftanlage. Auf Basis der vorhandenen Daten aus der Erhebung wurde mit Hilfe von Regressionsanalysen ein Modell zur Vorhersage der Komforttemperatur berechnet und mit den Modellen in DIN EN 15251 verglichen.
