Working towards net zero - What can be done with low-grade waste heat during the summer?
More than two years in and the Boden Type One DC (BTDC) project is still evolving with the team seeking new ways to increase efficiency and achieve carbon neutrality in the testbed facility. The recovery of waste heat from data centres is becoming a major issue. In a normal data centre, all of the electricity supplied is rejected as low-grade heat. There are working examples of linking data ...

What Is A Heat Exchanger?
A heat exchanger is a device that transfers (or exchanges) heat from one fluid to another. There are many different names for heat exchangers because of their varied applications. When considering what you want from a heat exchanger you should think about which medium you want to heat or cool and what you are using it for What Are The Different Types Of Heat Exchanger? Finned Tube Heat ...

Investigation of a hybrid solar and geothermal driven absorption cooling system for district applications
In this paper, a new hybrid geothermal and solar driven absorption cooling system (ACS) is proposed for low–temperature district energy applications. Two approaches are proposed in this study, namely: a) a new model for determining the specific entropy values of LiBr–water solution and (b) two new energetic and exergetic parameters, namely geothermal contribution index and solar contribution ...

Biomass Pellet Machine Fuel Can Replace Non-renewable Energy
The appearance of the biomass pellet machine makes biomass energy more fully utilized. The common straws, cottonseed hulls, peanut hulls, miscellaneous wood, various wood fragments, corn cobs, larch wood chips, rice husks, etc. in our life are very low-use and easily cause pollution, but they are all very good biomass pellet fuel raw materials. Today, there is a very good response to the use of ...

Strada Global: Why we need to rethink the map on Geothermal
For decades, everything we’ve known about geothermal potential has been modelled on a map that shows available resources in some parts of the world, but not others. We need to change that mindset and make people aware that we’re standing on vast resources of geothermal heat, wherever we are in the world. When it comes to geothermal, there are hurdles in people’s minds. They ...

An integrated approach to energy metering
Ultrasonic flowmeters are replacing their mechanical predecessors for better functionality and increased flexibility A multivariable insertion vortex flowmeter for stream applications Energy metering is a very broad category that incorporates measurement of all four types of fluids. Natural gas is used as a power source in power and other industrial plants. Steam is used as a heating source ...
