TL;DR: In this article, the effect of different hot water storage tank modelling approaches have on the global simulation of residential CHP plants as well as their impact on their economic feasibility is considered.

TL;DR: In this article, the feasibility of small-scale gas engine-based residential cogeneration plants under the current Spanish regulation is studied, where a unitary thermal load profile is obtained to characterised the thermal demand of residential applications in Spain.

TL;DR: In this paper, a binary mixture composed of sodium nitrate and urea for use as a phase change material in latent thermal energy storage systems between 75 and 90 degrees C was investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, a model that determines the theoretical maximum of flexibility of a combined heat and power system coupled with a thermal energy storage solution that can be either centralized or decentralized is presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of technologies suitable for utilisation of waste heat energy, with specific focus on low grade heat, including: (i) chemical heat pumps, such as adsorption and absorption cycles for cooling and heating; (ii) thermodynamic cycles such as the organic Rankine cycle (ORC), the supercritical Rankine Cycle (SRC), and the trilateral cycle (TLC), with further focus on expander and zeotropic mixtures, and (iii) thermal energy storage, including sensible and latent thermal energy storages and

TL;DR: In this paper, different types of trigeneration systems are classified according to the prime mover, size and energy sequence usage, and a leveled selection procedure is subsequently listed in consecutive sections.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a model for the calculation of the profitability of micro combined heat and power systems for residential building applications, taking into account hourly demands calculated by means of monthly and daily load profiles for heat and electricity.

TL;DR: In this article, a new DER-CAM TES model is presented that allows improved tracking of losses based on ambient and storage temperatures, and compares results with the previous version, which overestimates the attractiveness of TES investments for cases without possibility to invest in heat pumps and underestimates it for some locations when heat pumps are allowed.
