In residential applications, an air-to-water CO2 heat pump is used in combination with a domestic hot water storage tank, and the performance of this system is affected significantly not only by instantaneous ambient air and city water temperatures but also by hourly changes of domestic hot...

When evaluating residential energy systems like co-generation systems, hot water and electricity demand profiles are critical. In this paper, the authors aim to extract basic time-series demand patterns from two kinds of measured demand (electricity and domestic hot water), and also aim to...

This study develops a wind speed sensorless performance monitoring method for stand-alone vertical axis wind turbines, by means of a numerical analysis using a dynamic simulation model. The method focuses on improvements in the response speed of the rotor with deterioration in wind turbine...

The feasibility on a residential energy supply network using multiple cogeneration systems, known as combined heat and powers, is investigated by an optimization approach. The target residential energy supply network is based on a microgrid of residential cogeneration systems without electric...
