    Project Details

    Description

    The aim of the project is to develope solar energy systems. Research have been carried out in different fields in order to improve our knowledge of the systems. The activities will shortly be described in the following:
    -In cooperation with Kildemoes Solvarme a heat storage for a combined solar heating system for both space heating and domestic hot water supply was developed. The heat storage was tested in an indoor heat storage test facility.
    -A number of small SDHW systems(Solar Domestic Hot Water systems) have been tested in the Institute's test facility for solar heating systems. Both test systems and marketed systems- for instance a system marketed by Batec A/S - have been tested.
    -Theoretical work with a detailed computer model simulating the thermal behaviour of low flow systems have been carried out. The aim was to investigate how the attractive low flow SDHW systems are best designed.
    - Work with the aim to follow the activities going on abroad in the field of R&D on solar heating plants have been carried out.
    -Laboratory tests concerning heat storage in a concrete wall have been carried out. The aim was to improve our knowledge concerning the thermal behaviour of walls utilizing passive solar energy.
