Development and Validation of Numerical Tools to Implement Climate Sensitive Design and Control for Ground Source Heat Pumps with Horizontal Collectors
(2018)
At the outset of the 21st century, growth in the Sustainable Energy Technologies (SETs)
market is driven by the need to secure energy supply, limit the environmental impact of fossil
fuels and to generate economic growth. ...
Characterisation and optimisation of transport temperature control units in heat mode
(2005)
The control of air temperature within trailer food-compartment during road transportation of perishable products is critical as it influences the deterioration rate and the quality loss of food more than any other factor. ...
Development of a secure, low-cost, Web-Based Remote Technology Demonstrator® (WebRTD®)
(2004)
The Internet has acted as an effective catalyst for remote demonstration and experimentation in recent years through the medium of virtual laboratories. These laboratories can be especially useful in science and technology ...
