Traditional thermal solar panel technologies have limited efficiency and the required economic investments make them noncompetitive in the space heating market. The greatest limit to the diffusion of thermal solar systems is the characteristic temperatures they can reach: the strong connection between the user temperature and the collector...

2012 (v1)PublicationAn approach to energy saving assessment of solar assisted heat pumps for swimming pool water heating
A steady state off-design model of a Water Solar Assisted Heat Pump (W-SAHP) and the results of monthly-based averaged simulations are presented. The W-SAHP system is arranged with a commercial water- towater heat pump, coupled with unglazed flat plate solar collectors. The study is purposely developed for swimming pools, however most of the...

A linear reciprocating magnetic refrigerator prototype was designed and built with the aid of an industrial partner. The refrigerator is based on the Active Magnetic Regenerative cycle, and exploits two regenerators working in parallel. The active material is Gadolinium in plates, 0.8 mm thick, for a total mass of 0.36 kg. The device is...

When calibrating a sensor, the evaluation of the uncertainty of the estimated function is at least as important as the numeric values of the function itself. The calibration process usually involves a least-squares fitting, performed, for example for a thermocouple, by comparing some voltage readings with corresponding temperatures from a...

Phase change phenomena in moist porous media with low liquid content, the typical condition of a porous body at ambient conditions and far from the contact of liquid water, are controlled by the shape of the adsorption isotherms and by the effective liquid-vapor thermodynamic condition within the pores. Usually, heat and mass transfer models...

In the inverse heat conduction problem (IHCP) of finding the temperature-dependent thermophysical properties of materials, the evaluation of the confidence region of the unknown functions is at least as important as the numeric values of the function itself. The uncertainty of the reconstructed properties arises from various disturbances...

The time-dependent surface heat flux at one boundary of a one-dimensional system is reconstructed by using the Kalman smoothing technique, given the initial temperature distribution and the time-temperature history at an interior location. The study makes a parametric investigation and analyzes the behavior of two finite-difference schemes....
