A dynamic simulation model for heat and water vapor transfer in a naturally ventilated, fog-cooled greenhouse was … developed to predict the temperatures of air, plant, cover and floor surface and the relative humidity in the greenhouse … to measure the environments inside and outside a glass-covered greenhouse with a floor area of 26m2. The greenhouse was …

This paper analyzes the impacts of the modified needs for space heating and cooling due to global warming on the … Switzerland over the period 2010–2060. We find significant welfare gains from reduced heating needs, exceeding largely the costs … of the additional electricity needed for cooling. We also find large rebound effects. For instance, while the climate …

methodology is illustrated with the example of market-penetration forecasting of new district heating and cooling (DHC) systems in …

functions of heating, cooling, and hot water supply was designed and its performance was investigated according to operating … modes. In the cooling-hot water mode, the capacity and COP were enhanced as compared to other modes because the waste heat … from the outdoor heat exchanger was utilized as useful heat in the indoor heat exchanger. In the heating and hot water …
