• Modelling Multi-layer Hydronic Radiators 

      Chen, Liguo; Sørensen, Bjørn Reidar (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-30)
      This report simulates Purmo type C22 and C33 radiators with both standard calculation and heat transfer method with help of Matlab/Simulink. Simulation results are presented to describe the radiators’ thermal performances with different simulation strategies. The deviations between two different calculation methods are identified and the heat transfer radiator model can be improved with more ...
    • Utnytting av energi i vannforsyning for oppvarming av større bygg 

      Chen, Liguo (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2017-06-08)
      Det anbefales et varmepumpeanlegg med tre sammenkoblete varmepumper som benytter kommunes backup drikkevannsforsyning som varmekilde. Anlegget kan levere 262 kW varmeeffekt til Salangen bo- og eldresenter og Vasshaug barnehage. Økonomisk vurdering viser at prosjektet har en positiv nåverdi på 3,8 mil. kroner og 2,9 år inntjeningstid.
    • Variation of Mean Radiant Temperature in Rooms for Summer and Winter Conditions 

      Tamrakar, Stutee; Chen, Liguo; Sørensen, Bjørn Reidar (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-07-25)
      The standard for ergonomics of the thermal environment provides information on the calculation of optimal thermal comfort. Operative temperature (OT) is one of the essential elements of thermal comfort and is a function of air temperature, mean radiant temperature (MRT), and air velocity. This paper investigates the impact of diverse influences on MRT in an office room based on occupant position ...
