A chemical engineering application on hyperbolic tangent flow examination about sphere with Brownian motion and thermo phoresis effects using BVP5C
(Elsevier, 2022-12)Brownian motion and thermophoresis impacts are discussed in relation to a tangent hyperbolic fluid encircling a sphere subject to a convective boundary condition and a Biot number. Concentration boundary conditions involving ... -
A comprehensive study of the phase segregation of a urea-based phase change material tested under thermal cycling conditions
(Elsevier, 2023-04)Eutectic mixtures are used as PCMs due to the possibility to tailor the melting temperatures and mainly because the phase transition occurs at a unique temperature. Eutectic mixtures are assumed to be congruent melting and ... -
A hybrid 1D-CFD numerical framework for the thermofluidic assessment and design of PEM fuel cell and electrolysers
(Elsevier, 2024-01-02)Given the current maturity of hydrogen technologies, accurate and computationally efficient numerical models are crucial for improving their understanding and development. Traditional models are either computationally ... -
A macroscale optimal substructure selection for Europe’s offshore wind farms
(Elsevier, 2022-10)Considering the political decisions taken in Europe in the last year, there is a renewed interest in the offshore wind sector. A considerable growth of large-scale offshore wind farms (OWF) is noticeable in Europe mainly ... -
A methodology to introduce sustainable development goals in engineering degrees by means of multidisciplinary projects
(MDPI, 2024-05-28)The sustainable development goals (SDGs) reflect the relevance that sustainability is gaining in our societies. Including sustainability-related topics in university curricula requires the revision of the contents, ... -
A MILP optimization method for energy renovation of residential urban areas: Towards Zero Energy Districts
(Elsevier, 2021-05)The nearly Zero Energy Building concept should be adopted in the renovation of existing buildings and actions upscaled and applied to larger and larger urban areas. In this context, this paper presents an optimization ... -
A mixed integer linear programming-based simple method for optimizing the design and operation of space heating and domestic hot water hybrid systems in residential buildings
(Elsevier, 2023-07-05)The hybridization of energy systems is based on the combined integration of both renewable and non-renewable technologies and thermal energy storage. These hybrid installations improve cost effectiveness and energy efficiency ... -
A New Loss Function for Simultaneous Object Localization and Classification
(MDPI, 2023-03-01)Robots play a pivotal role in the manufacturing industry. This has led to the development of computer vision. Since AlexNet won ILSVRC, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art status in this ... -
A novel multicriteria methodology to assess the renovation of social buildings
(Elsevier, 2023-10)[EN] The current Energy Performance Certificates of buildings are mostly based on the expected energy consumption. Recently, some certification schemes are starting to incorporate Indoor Air Quality aspects, but it is still ... -
A novel residential heating consumption characterisation approach at city level from available public data: Description and case study
(Elsevier, 2020-04-29)Abstract: In the current transition towards a net-zero GHG emissions economy, residential building sector is one of the sectors with highest potential for energy efficiency. In order to assist the implementation of energy ... -
A novel strategy to guarantee a minimum indoor temperature in social housing buildings
(ELSEVIER, 2023-10)Energy poverty, along with climate change, is becoming one of the most worrying issues in Europe. Many people live without a minimum thermal comfort in their homes because they are not able to afford high energy bills. In ... -
A photovoltaic forced ventilated façade (PV-FVF) as heat source for a heat pump: Assessing its energetical profit in nZEB buildings
(Elsevier, 2022-04)The European Union is changing its energy model towards a more efficient and sustainable one. In this new outlook, the Heat Pump (HP) has become a leading technology in the building energy sector. The use of the air source ... -
A Study of Learning Issues in Feedforward Neural Networks
