97	Analysis of a novel thermoelectric generator in the built environment Lozano, Adolfo 05 October 2011 (has links) This study centered on a novel thermoelectric generator (TEG) integrated into the built environment. Designed by Watts Thermoelectric LLC, the TEG is essentially a novel assembly of thermoelectric modules whose required temperature differential is supplied by hot and cold streams of water flowing through the TEG. Per its recommended operating conditions, the TEG nominally generates 83 Watts of electrical power. In its default configuration in the built environment, solar-thermal energy serves as the TEG’s hot stream source and geothermal energy serves as its cold stream source. Two systems-level, thermodynamic analyses were performed, which were based on the TEG’s upcoming characterization testing, scheduled to occur later in 2011 in Detroit, Michigan. The first analysis considered the TEG coupled with a solar collector system. A numerical model of the coupled system was constructed in order to estimate the system’s annual energetic performance. It was determined numerically that over the course of a sample year, the solar collector system could deliver 39.73 megawatt-hours (MWh) of thermal energy to the TEG. The TEG converted that thermal energy into a net of 266.5 kilowatt-hours of electricity in that year. The second analysis focused on the TEG itself during operation with the purpose of providing a preliminary thermodynamic characterization of the TEG. Using experimental data, this analysis found the TEG’s operating efficiency to be 1.72%. Next, the annual emissions that would be avoided by implementing the zero-emission TEG were considered. The emission factor of Michigan’s electric grid, RFCM, was calculated to be 0.830 tons of carbon dioxide-equivalent (CO2e) per MWh, and with the TEG’s annual energy output, it was concluded that 0.221 tons CO2e would be avoided each year with the TEG. It is important to note that the TEG can be linearly scaled up by including additional modules. Thus, these benefits can be multiplied through the incorporation of more TEG units. Finally, the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of the TEG integrated into the built environment with the solar-thermal hot source and passive ground-based cold source was considered. The LCOE of the system was estimated to be approximately $8,404/MWh, which is substantially greater than current generation technologies. Note that this calculation was based on one particular configuration with a particular and narrow set of assumptions, and is not intended to be a general conclusion about TEG systems overall. It was concluded that while solar-thermal energy systems can sustain the TEG, they are capital-intensive and therefore not economically suitable for the TEG given the assumptions of this analysis. In the end, because of the large costs associated with the solar-thermal system, waste heat recovery is proposed as a potentially more cost-effective provider of the TEG’s hot stream source. / text Thermoelectric generator TEG Novel thermoelectric generator Thermoelectrics Thermoelectric effect Thermoelectric modules Thermoelectric device Patent application Hot stream source Cold stream source EIA EERE Systems-level analysis Energy balance Control volume analysis Thermodynamic analysis Insolation data Insolation incident on a panel Incident insolation Extraterrestrial insolation NREL Ambient temperature data NOAA Renewable energy sources Energy generation technology Electricity generation technology Thermal energy Coupled system Emissions Greenhouse gas GHG Emissions analysis Zero-emission Emissions avoided Emission factor EF Reliability First Corporation RFC Built environment Integrated into the built environment Solar-thermal energy Solar collector system Photovoltaic thermal PVT panel Thermal storage tank Geothermal energy Geothermal heat pump GHP Ground source heat pump GSHP Numerical analysis Numerical model MATLAB Finite-difference Euler explicit Electric grid Annual energetic performance Annual electricity generation Operating efficiency System efficiency Thermodynamic characterization Economic analysis Levelized cost of energy LCOE Waste heat recovery Carbon dioxide equivalent CO2e Capital costs Installed costs Operating and maintenance costs
98	Budova občanské vybavenosti / Civic amenities building Baroň, Alexandr Unknown Date (has links) The first part of this diploma thesis is to design an energy-efficient hotel with restaurant and car parking. The second part is also to create an assessment of the energy performance of the building and usage of energy from renewable sources. Hotel is designed with the idea of „smart buildings“ which means, that all the technological background is controlled by the main computer, which also harvests data to achieve a minimum energy use and financial demand and maximum comfort and safety at the same time by controlling the connected technology. By placing on a sloped terrain in the center of Brno, the basement floor can be used as car parking. The roof of this building is flat, green, with modifications for placing solar panels, whose design is part of this work. The third part of this diploma thesis is the spatial acoustics of the conference room on the first ground floor.
