摘要: A system and method for personal energy-related changes payback evaluation with the aid of a digital computer are provided. An overall thermal performance of a building is estimated. One or more proposed replacements for existing equipment associated with an individual associated with the building is received. An annual electric consumption associated with the existing equipment is determined. The consumption associated the existing equipment is converted into a time series that includes a plurality of values that are each associated with a time interval. Renewable energy production data associated with the building is obtained. The time series is combined with the photovoltaic production data to obtain time series net consumption data. A cost associated with the time series net consumption data is determined. A payback associated with replacing the existing equipment is estimated using the cost.

摘要: The invention describes a calorimetric measurement set-up having a sensor unit (1) for controlling the quality of the operation of a battery having a cathode and an anode, wherein the measurement set-up or the sensor unit (1) is connected to data processing electronics (11) via a communication link (12) and sensor measured values are therefore recorded and processed. This measurement set-up is intended to achieve reproducible and sufficiently accurate quality control of a battery. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that the sensor unit (1) comprises at least one heat flow sensor (2), the sensor side of which can be fastened in a non-detachable manner with a material bond such that it rests directly on a battery contact of the cathode and/or the anode in the transverse direction, wherein a heat sink is fastened in a thermally conductive manner to the heat flow sensor (2) opposite the sensor side in a non-detachable manner and heat flow sensor signals at the battery contact of the battery can be read and processed further by the data processing electronics (11).

摘要: A system to determine thermal properties of wall assemblies under dynamic weather conditions is presented. The system comprises a house-like structure with a suite of measurement devices to measure temperatures, heat fluxes, and weather conditions. The data is recorded over several days, and employed in the calculations for the thermal transmittance and thermal resistance of the wall assembly.

摘要: An assessment system and method are described that capture indoor temperature measurements and corresponding outdoor temperature measurements in order to determine a thermal efficiency of a structure. The assessment system identifies quiescent periods and trims these periods to eliminate undesirable influences such as auxiliary heating or solar gain. The quiescent periods are then compared to outdoor temperature differences to determine the thermal efficiency of the structure. The system can model the structure's performance metrics, through inferred qualitative and quantitative characterizations including, but not limited to, the building's rate of temperature change as a function of internal and external temperatures, the building's heating, cooling, and other energy needs as they relate to the building envelope, appliances, and other products used at the site and occupant behavior.

摘要: Disclosed is a method for forecasting the energy consumption of a building, taking into account the heat exchanges from received solar radiation and/or heat convection and/or conduction between the building and the outside environment based on a physical model. The method includes a learning step to deduce the value of the parameters of the physical model based on previous measurements performed on the building.
