Journal ArticleDOI
The state of the art on preheating lithium-ion batteries in cold weather
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide insights on developing new preheating techniques and guidance on the selection of pre-heating methods for electric vehicles under cold weather conditions, which is one of the key measures to improve the performance and lifetime of lithium-ion batteries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life cycle energy, emissions and cost evaluation of CO2 air source heat pump system to replace traditional heating methods for residential heating in China: System configurations
Baomin Dai,Qi Haifeng,Dou Wanbin,Shengchun Liu,Dan Zhong,Yang Haining,Victor Nian,Victor Nian,Ying Hao +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new configuration of CO2 heat pump system integrated with vapor injection and dedicated mechanical subcooling (VIDMS) is proposed, and compared with five configurations of CO 2 heat pump systems and three traditional heating methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simultaneous calibration and parameter ranking method for building energy models
TL;DR: In this article, a metamodel-based Bayesian method is proposed to simultaneously calibrate and rank input parameters to building energy simulation models, which is much more efficient than applying these two procedures individually in separate model runs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life cycle analysis on carbon emissions from power generation – The nuclear energy example
TL;DR: In this paper, a bottom-up approach was employed to better define the system, its input and output, and boundaries, and the resulting system boundary facilitates the use of the Kaya identity and the decomposition technique to identify the carbon emission streams.
Journal ArticleDOI
The carbon neutrality of electricity generation from woody biomass and coal, a critical comparative evaluation
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of partial temporal boundary for synchronizing interconnected systems over a common life cycle is introduced to facilitate accurate formulation of the boundary conditions, and the case studies demonstrate that woody biomass is not carbon neutral.
