Abstract:
Thermal insulation systems of ETICS are now mostly solved in the building industry, whether in terms of insulating the structures, choices of materials and subsequent recycling after the end of their life period. From the environmental point of view and also in the perspective of sustainable development, it is essential to look for other suitable material bases which relate only to easily renewable sources of raw materials or to industrial wastes which have long been available in sufficient quantity and quality. It is important that production of the insulation systems is energetically efficient modest in terms of manufacturing facilities. The aim of this paper is to verify the possibility of using natural insulation materials for thermal insulation systems ETICS. This paper describes the results of studies of key properties of insulations based on industrial hemp and flax and the results of computational simulations of the behavior of these insulations incorporated in the real systems ETICS.

Abstract:
Various aspects of application of polyethylene foam implemented for roof thermal insulation within the frame of one of the sports venues and, closely, the realization of insulation systems for cold conservation on the territory of public sports facilities, particularly for snow storage conservation within ski resorts have been regarded in this article. Additional demands are placed on thermal insulating material for suchlike constructions. Apart from high thermo technical properties, the material should involve hermeticity, lightness, easy mounting and maintenance, durability, bacterial and fungal resistance and temperature differential resistance. The examination results concerning properties and particularities of application of non-cross-linked polyethylene foam within the scope of production of insulation coatings protecting the snow from melting are given in the article. It has been established that being the part of insulation system polyethylene foam preserves the accuracy of mechanical and thermo physical characteristics. Taking all functional particularities of insulation systems implementation into consideration, the principles of protection and conservation of snow covering have been developed being realized on the mountainsides and plateaus of ski resorts. Polyethylene foam rolls have been connected in a butt joint and mechanically fixed. As a result, a seamless insulating coating - thermal blanket has been formed, which covered the entire mountainside. Maintenance of insulation system is performed during the off-season between March and September in the period of stable positive temperatures.

Abstract:
The paper analyzes the problems associated with the fire hazard of the application of thermal insulation and finishing systems of facades of buildings, which directly depends on the design solution of the thermal insulation system and the type of thermal insulation material. The generalized requirements for physical and technical indicators of the quality of heat-insulating materials; the possibility of applying facade heat insulation structures depending on their class, the height of the houses and the combustibility of the materials of the heat-insulating and finishing layers; fire-technical characteristics of expanded polystyrene are considered. The threats of fire spreading by thermal insulation systems of facades are analyzed and possible ways of its propagation between floors are considered. It is concluded that the use of combustible thermal insulating materials poses an increased danger to life and health of people during a fire. The problem of ensuring the fire safety of buildings, in which the insulation and finishing systems of exterior walls are used, depends on a number of factors and requires a more thorough study.

Abstract:
Highly insulated envelope or external insulation systems are being applied in recent energy saving buildings to reduce the heat loss through envelope. Internal insulation systems are applied to most apartments in Korea because they are inexpensive and convenient to construct. However, the internal insulation systems have poor performance due to the heat bridges through structures such as slabs. The external insulation systems have better thermal performance because the heat bridges through the structure are rarely formed. But it has problems regarding the external insulator separation due to strong winds, spread of fire due to insulator combustion in case of fire, formation of heat bridges through the connectors between structure and external insulation. To supplement the weaknesses of the internal and the external insulation systems, a sandwich insulation system has been suggested. In this study, the thermal performance of sandwich insulation system for apartment buildings was evaluated according to two type of the form-tie material.

Abstract:
The article outlines the basic requirements for pitched roof insulation systems. The analysis of the properties of thermal insulation materials used in insulation systems was conducted. It is substantiated that the thermal resistance of such structures on the surface of the roof is formed taking into account the thermal conductivity of thermal insulation, thermal conductivity of wooden rafters and heat loss through the leakiness of joints and mounting devices. An assessment was made of the effect of loads of various types on the heat-insulating layer, namely: the effect of the air flow in the ventilated gap; the movement of the vapor-air mixture in the material; condensation of water vapor and penetration of drip liquid; exfiltration of air at the joints of the plates and on the surfaces of contact with the supporting structures. The expediency of using products on the basis of unstitched polyethylene foam in the construction of pitched roofs with a wooden roof system, taking into account the advantages and features of this material, as well as taking into account the possibility of creating a seamless insulating shell, is substantiated.

Abstract:
Introduction. The article discusses the various aspects of the use of foamed polyethylene, implemented at sports facilities in Armenia. Firstly, it is a roof insulation system. Secondly, the implementation of insulation systems to preserve the cold in the territory of open sports facilities, in particular, to preserve snow reserves in ski resorts. Additional requirements are imposed on the thermal insulation material for such structures. The material, in addition to high thermotechnical properties, must be airtight, lightweight, easy to install and maintain, durable, resistant to infection by bacteria and fungi, it is easy to tolerate temperature extremes. Materials and methods. The article presents the results of a study of the properties (heat conductivity density, vapor permeability, water absorption) and application features (resistance to the effects of temperature, humidity, aggressive components contained in the air, that is, its high operational stability) of rolled non-cross-linked polyethylene foam when creating insulating sheets that protect snow from melting. Results. It was found that polyethylene foam in the insulating system maintains the stability of mechanical and thermophysical properties. Taking into account all the functional features of the implementation of insulation systems, the principles of protection and preservation (conservation) of snow cover have been developed, implemented on the mountain slopes and plateau of ski facilities. Rolls of foamed polyethylene were joined end-to-end and mechanically fixed. Conclusions. Thus, a seamless insulating coating was formed, covering the entire hillside — “thermal blanket”. The insulation system is operated during the off-season between March and September, during a period of stable positive temperatures.

Abstract:
The thermal insulating of new and existing buildings is of a key influence in reduction of their energetic demand factor resulting in reduction of emissions of gases, carbon particles and dust which directly improves the environment. At development of light thermal insulation plasters with very low thermal conductivity the foam-plastic matters or light porous aggregates are frequently used at present. The foam-plastic materials do not appear as convenient ones in view of the environment and sustainable development as well. In the given case the thermal insulation plasters based on light cellular aggregates appear as more suitable. However a majority of light aggregates (for example expanded perlite) do not show a good ratio of insulation and mechanical properties. The paper describes a design and development of thermal insulation plasters based on expanded obsidian that can be used for thermal insulating of building constructions and for moisture sanitation. Considering the applied type of aggregates the materials show better ratio of thermal insulation and mechanical properties while in practice the plasters can be used as a full- value alternative for classical thermal insulation systems.

Abstract:
Although desirable for many reasons, controlled low-strength material – controlled density fill (nonshrinkable fill) has the potential to promote rapid frost penetration within the trench when used as a backfill material in waterworks construction and repair projects. This paper describes results of a two-dimensional finite-element heat-transfer model study carried out to investigate the effectiveness of various insulation systems for frost and frost-heave protection of buried waterlines. Combinations of nonshrinkable fill with horizontal insulation boards, cylindrical pipe insulation, and inverted U-shaped insulations were investigated. It was shown that, while moderate thicknesses of insulation could be found to protect the pipe from freezing, thermal-bridging effects make the location of the maximum frost penetration depth sensitive to details of the insulation geometry. The use of different combinations of insulating backfills was also investigated, and it was shown that a backfill layer of moderate insulating value placed high in the trench may be most advantageous. Key words : frost, frost protection, insulation, waterlines, nonshrinkable fill, numerical analysis.

Abstract:
Insulation systems for buildings and structures imply the use of efficient thermal insulation products based on mineral wool, expanded polystyrene, expanded polyurethane, etc. For a long time, products from non-cross-linked expanded polyethylene were used as insulation for pipelines, reflective insulation, protection against air infiltration, etc. Modern technologies and engineering solutions allowed widening the field of application of non-cross-linked expanded polyethylene (NXLPE) as a construction insulation material. In particular, we can consider a complex of insulation systems for walls, floors and a pitched roof, which allows to form a fully insulating shell of a low-rise building, e.g. a cottage. The novelty of the patented technology Tepofol® and that of the material concerned in comparison with the known solutions is the development of a rolled material based on NXLPE (20 to 150 mm thick) with a lock joint, as well as the technology of seamless connection of individual heat-insulating cloths. The rolls of NXLPE are mechanically fixed to the frame and connected with the lock. One of the advantages of expanded polyethylene, which only few insulating materials possess, is the possibility of forming seamless insulating shells. The article considers a number of insulation systems based on the use of products from expanded polyethylene. In particular, these are the systems of insulation of the walls of frame buildings, the insulation of floors, as well as the insulation of logistics facilities and hangars.

Abstract:
Dans les turbines à gaz aéronautiques, les matériaux employés dans les parties les plus chaudes sont soumis à des environnements chimiques extrêmes, sous fortes pressions et températures. Ainsi, des systèmes de revêtement « barrière thermique, BT » sont appliqués sur les substrats en superalliage à base nickel. Ces systèmes multicouches (zircone stabilisée à l’yttrine (YSZ) /couche de liaison en MCrAl ou NiPtAl/substrat refroidi) permettent d’abaisser la température à la surface des pièces, conduisant à un comportement thermomécanique adéquat et à une diminution des vitesses d’oxydation/corrosion. Cependant, l’augmentation nécessaire de la température des gaz d’entrée de turbine (augmentation du rendement moteur) entraîne de nouveaux phénomènes de dégradation (CMAS) et une perte d’efficacité des revêtements BT actuels. Par ailleurs, l’évaluation de la durée de vie des revêtements BT s’avère cruciale pour déterminer celle des moteurs. Comprendre l’évolution du pouvoir isolant des revêtements BT en environnement agressif constitue donc un enjeu essentiel du point de vue scientifique et technologique. A partir des revêtements couramment employés (YSZ) déposés par projection plasma (PS) ou en phase vapeur (EB-PVD), la présente étude a visé à mieux comprendre l’effet de l’évolution des propriétés microstructurales et chimiques des revêtements sur leur pouvoir isolant, dans le but de développer des outils nécessaires à la mise au point des revêtements du futur. De plus, une partie des travaux menés a porté sur une solution alternative plus économique et écologique d’élaboration de revêtements BT, fondée sur un procédé par voie barbotine, permettant in fine d’obtenir une barrière constituée de microsphères creuses d’alumine. Ce travail a permis de montrer que l’évolution par frittage des phases céramiques en YSZ, les changements de phase cristalline, les réactions avec les CMAS et la croissance d’oxydes thermiques modifient la diffusivité thermique. En revanche, celle-ci évolue moins avec la température puisque les revêtements en alumine issus de barbotines se sont avérés plus stables et ce, notamment, lorsque leur élaboration a été réalisée sous atmosphères hybrides (mélanges Ar/air)
In aeronautical gas turbine engines, the metallic materials employed in the hottest sections are subject to very harsh chemical environments at high pressures and temperatures. Therefore, thermal barrier coating systems (TBCs) are applied onto nickel-based superalloy substrates. These multi-layered systems (ceramic yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) / MCrAl or NiPtAl bond coats / cooled substrate) lower the temperature at the components surface, which ensures an adequate thermomechanical behaviour and reduces the oxidation/corrosion rates. However, the increase of the turbine inlet temperature (increased engine performance) brings about new degradation phenomena (e.g. CMAS) and loss of efficiency of the current TBCs. Therefore, understanding the evolution of the insulation ability of TBCs in such harsh environments is key from both the scientific and technological perspectives to estimate the lifetime of these coatings, hence that of the engines. Based on current plasma-sprayed (PS) and electron-beam physical vapour deposited (EB-PVD) YSZ coatings, this thesis seeks to provide a better comprehension on the relationships between the intrinsic properties of the current TBCs and their thermal insulation capacity as a basis for the development of future coatings. Also, this work studies an alternative solution to create a TBC made of hollow alumina microspheres by the slurry route. We will show that the sintering of the YSZ, the evolution of crystal phases, the reactions between YSZ and CMAS and the growth of thermal oxides alter the thermal diffusivity to different extents. In contrast, the evolution of the thermal diffusivity with temperature is less marked with the slurry alumina coatings, which appear more stable when hybrid Ar/air annealing atmospheres are employed upon their synthesis

Based on mounting evidence in support of anthropogenic global climate change, there is an urgency for developments in high-performance building techniques and technologies. New construction projects provide substantial opportunities for energy efficiency measures, but they represent only a small portion of the building stock. Conversely, while existing buildings are plentiful, they typically have a much narrower range of feasible energy efficiency options. Therefore, there will continue to be a need for the development of new and improved energy efficiency measures for new building construction and even more so for deep retrofits of existing buildings. This thesis provides an overview of the research performed into the on-going development at MIT of a high-performance panelized insulation system based on silica aerogel. Two test methods were used for measuring the thermal conductivity of the granules: the transient hot-wire technique and the guarded hot-plate system. Utilizing the hot-wire set-up, it was demonstrated that compressing a bed of granules will decrease the thermal conductivity of the system until a minimum point is reached around the monolithic density of the aerogel. For the Cabot granules, this was seen at 13 mW/m-K and about 150 kg/m3. The MIT granules showed equal performance to the Cabot granules at bed densities 20-30 kg/m3 lower. The hot-plate testing was able to experimentally evaluate previous analytical predictions regarding the conductivity impact of the internal panel truss and the under-prediction of radiant heat transfer in the hot-wire method. Hot-wire testing was also done in a vacuum chamber to quantify potential performance improvements at reduced air pressures. Since a vacuum would require the incorporation of a barrier film into the panel system, some analyses were done into the thermal bridging potential and gas diffusion requirements of such a film. Additionally, physical prototyping was done to explore how the film would be incorporated into the existing panel design. The aerogel-based insulation panel being developed at MIT continues to show promise, though there are still plenty of opportunities remaining in the development cycle.

Abstract:
Insulating sheets, impregnants and encapsulation materials commonly used for winding insulation offer low thermal conductivities. This leads to an increased heating of the winding of electrical machines and to the existence of hotspots. The electromagnetical utilization of the machine has to be reduced with respect to the allowed maximum winding temperature. In this paper, the development and experimental investigation of novel polysiloxane composites with ceramic fillers are presented. The materials are tested by means of impregnated and encapsulated samples of a round-wire winding as well as the main insulation of electrical steel sheets and laminated cores. Numerical models are implemented for determining the equivalent thermal conductivity of the winding compound comprising the enameled wire and the impregnant. Based on the example of a permanent-magnet synchronous machine with outer-rotor in modular construction, the potential for increasing the electromagnetical utilization is shown.

Abstract:
The European Green Deal 2020 goals for reducing emissions are enforcing rules on the energy performance of buildings. Therefore thermally insulating materials used as coatings are researched to reduce the energy emissions of buildings. An essential field of interest are nanomaterials. Traditional aerogel is a nanomaterial used for insulating applications due to its high porosity and large surface area, resulting in a longer path for heat to travel. However the cost and manufacturing process are highly energy demanding. Svenska Aerogel AB produces Quartzene® (Qz), a silica-based nanomaterial with similar properties as traditional aerogel. Qz can be incorporated into different paint systems to improve their thermal insulating properties. The aim of this project was to investigate the thermal insulating effects of Qz on three different painting systems (A, B, and C). Samples were moulded and their thermal properties were measured with TPS (Transient Plane Source). The thermal conductivity decreased as the wt% of Qz increased, up until around 10 wt% for system C. It became apparent that at higher wt%, it became harder to properly mix the samples into a good dispersion. The thermal conductivity started to increase above 10 wt%. Experiments showed that bigger particles were easier to mix into the paint than smaller.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The focus of this thesis is on South Africa's first micro space satellite SUNSAT, and the thermal modelling thereof. Background theory with relevance to thermal management and control of satellite systems and subsystems is presented. The mission profile and subsystem makeup of SUNSAT is also briefly discussed, with emphasis placed on the physical structure, possible orbit paths, internal heat generation, and the environmental heating. The environmental heating on the satellite surfaces from the direct and reflected earth solar radiation, as well as the earth emitted infrared radiation, is determined from the developed computer program ORBIT-FLUX. This program was used in tandem with numerical programs (developed in house), as well as an outsourced program TAS (Thermal Analysis Systems) to model SUNSAT for two possible orbit paths. The resistance-capacitance formulation method was used to develop the numerical programs, which served initially to establish the validity ofTAS. The first approximated thermal model of SUNSA T's batteries was the 7 lumped-mass model that focused on the batteries since their overheating is the suspected reason for SUNSA T'S failure to complete its mission. A numerical program as well as a similar TAS model was developed, and the results showed correlation to within 3°C. A lumped-mass model of SUNSAT was also developed, both numerically and using TAS. The models were tested and the results showed that the temperatures of the models were sensitive to changes in internal heating as well as varying emissivity and absorptivity. The numerical and TAS lumped-mass model results did not correlate well, possibly due to the higher number of control volumes used in the TAS lumped-mass model. The TAS SUNSAT 2 model was developed as advancement on the lumped-mass model. The higher number of control volumes and the effect of adding solar panels gave a more realistic model of SUNSA T. The results did not show good correlation with actual SUNSA T temperature data possibly due to the fact that the solar panels were not mounted on the model body as they were on SUNSA T; but the TAS SUNSA T 2 model did set the platform for the more advanced TAS SUNSAT 3 model. This thermal model included the effects of the solar panel mountings, and had a higher number of control volumes, which gave a better physical representation of the SUNSAT subsystems. The model was tested for possible orbit paths of SUNSA T. The results showed excellent correlation to actual SUNSA T data. For the comparison of the TAS SUNSA T 3 model results with data from SUNSAT for July 1999 showed that the SUNSA T battery temperature was modelled to within 8°C. And for June 2000, this same comparison was to within 1°C. A thermal management and control case study was done on a simple system (which included a cubic box and an internal solid block with heat generation) to illustrate the effects of using various passive and active thermal control hardware to regulate temperatures. The results showed that internal surfaces painted black provide for maximum heat sharing, and lowest block temperatures. The block temperatures were found to be very sensitive to changes in the cube external optical surface properties. A slight increase in emissivity lowered the block temperature, while a slight increase in absorptivity increased the block temperature. Heat pipes were also found to lower the temperatures of the block and immediate subsystems by providing a path of low thermal resistance to the flow of heat from the block directly to the radiator. The effect of thermal insulation was also investigated. For the two materials (rubber and plastic) that were tested, it was noticed that although insulation material does give more thermal control and predictability over a subsystem by thermally isolating it from its environment, it can cause a subsystem that has heat generation to become too hot. Recommendations were made relating to future micro satellite thermal management and control with regard to; thermal modelling techniques, acquisition of tried software, positioning of temperature sensors for optimisation of thermal data, and the verification of optical surface properties by physical measurement.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie tesis fokus op Suid-Afrika se eerste mikro ruimte satelliet, SUNSAT, en die termiese ontwikkeling daarvan. Agtergrond teorie met betrekking tot die termiese bestuur en kontrole van die satelliet-sisteme en subsisteme word aangebied. Die missie-profiel en die samestelling van die subsisteme word ook kortliks bespreek met die klem op die fisiese strukture, moontlike wentelbane, interne hitte-opwekking, en die omgewingsverhitting. Die omgewingsverhitting op die oppervlaktes van die satelliet, veroorsaak deur direkte en weerkaatste aardlson bestraling, sowel as deur infrarooi bestraling afkomstig van die aarde, word bepaal deur die ontwikkelde rekenaarprogram ORBIT-FLUX. Hierdie program word gebruik in tandem met numeriese programme (intern ontwikkel), so weI as 'n uitgekontrakteerde program TAS (Termiese Analiese Sisteme) om SUNS AT vir twee moontlike wentelbane te modelleer. Die weerstandskapasitansie formuleringsmetode is gebruik om die numeriese programme te ontwikkel. Hierdie programme is oorspronklik gebruik om die validiteit van TAS vas te stel. Die eerste benaderde termiese model van SUNSAT se batterye was die 7 gekonsentreerdemassa model wat gefokus het op die batterye aangesien daar vermoed is dat oorverhitting van die batterye die rede is waarom SUNSAT nie sy missie voltooi het nie. 'n Numeriese program so weI as 'n gelyksoortige TAS model is ontwikkel en die resultate korreleer tot binne 3°C. 'n Gekonsentreerde-massa model van SUNSA T is ook ontwikkel, numeries en met gebruik van TAS. Die modelle is getoets en die resultate toon dat die temperature van die modelle gevoelig is vir veranderinge in interne hitte sowel as vir wissellende uitstralingsvermoe en absorpsievermoe, Die numeriese- en die TAS gekonsentreerde-massa model resultate het nie goed met mekaar korrelleer nie, moontlik weens die hoe aantal kontrole volumes wat in die TAS gekonsentreerde-massa model gebruik is. Die TAS SUNSA T 2 model is 'n verdere ontwikkeling van die gekonsentreerde-massa model. Die hoer aantal kontrole volumes en die byvoeging van solarpanele het tot gevolg gehad dat hierdie 'n meer realistiese model van SUNSA T is. Die resultate het nie goed gekorrelleer met die temperatuurdata van die werklike SUNSAT nie, moontlik weens die feit dat die solarpanele nie op die bakwerk monteer is, soos in die geval van SUNSA T nie. Nietemin het het die TAS SUNSAT 2 model gelei tot die meer gevorderde TAS SUNSAT 3 model. Hierdie termiese model het die solarpaneel montuur ingesluit en het 'n hoer aantal kontrole volumes gehad, wat 'n beter fisiese weergawe van die SUNSAT subsisteme tot gevolg gehad het. Die model is getoets vir moontlike wentelbane van SUNSAT. Die resultate het 'n hoe korrellasie getoon met die data van die werklike SUNSAT. 'n Vergelyking van die TAS SUNSAT 3 model resultate met data van SUNSAT vir Julie 1999 wys dat die SUNSAT battery temperatuur dieselfde is tot binne 8°C. Vergelyk met die resultate vir Junie 2000 was dit binne 1°C. 'n Termiese bestuurs- en kontrolestudie is gedoen op 'n eenvoudige sisteem (insluitende 'n kubieke boks en 'n interne soliede blok met hitte opwekking) om die uitwerking van die gebruik van passiewe en aktiewe termiese kontrole hardeware wat temperature reguleer, te illustreer. Die resultate toon dat interne oppervlaktes wat swart geverf is, lei tot die maksimum hitte-deling, en die laagste bloktemperature. Daar is gevind dat bloktemperature baie gevoelig is vir veranderinge in die eienskappe van die kubus se eksterne optiese oppervlaktes. 'n Effense vermedering van uitstralingsvermoe verlaag die bloktemperatuur, terwyl 'n effense vermedering van absorpsievermoe die bloktemperatuur verhoog. Daar is ook gevind dat hittepype die temperatuur van die blok en onmiddelike subsisteme verlaag deur om 'n pad van lae termiese weerstand teen die vloei van hitte vanaf die blok, direk na die verkoeler te verskaf. Die uitwerking van termiese isolasie is ook ondersoek. In die geval van die twee materiale (rubber en plastiek) wat getoets is, is daar opgemerk dat, alhoewel isolasie materiaal meer termiese beheer oor die subsisteem en voorspelbaarheid tot gevolg gehad het deurdat die subsisteem termies van die omgewing isoleer is, kan dit veroorsaak dat die subsisteem te warm word. Aanbevelings is gemaak met betrekking tot toekomstige mikro satelliet bestuur en kontrole en wel in verband met die volgende: termiese modelleringstegnieke, die aanskaffing van getoetste sagteware, die plasing van temperatuut sensors vir die beste termiese data, en die verifikasie van die eienskappe van optiese oppervlaktes deur fisiese meting.

Abstract:
Constant conductivity values of insulating materials are typically used in building design and assessment. However, the thermal conductivity of insulating materials changes with temperature. Linear temperature-dependent law exist for many inorganic fibrous materials such as fiberglass or rockwool, that exhibit a decreased thermal conductivity (better performance) at low temperatures, and a higher thermal conductivity (weaker performance) at high temperatures. However some insulating materials, especially the petrochemical-foamed insulation such as the polyisocyanurate (PIR), exhibit less regular behavior with poorer performance at cold temperatures. In this scenario, using constant thermal resistance values results in actual building are different from the design predictions, with increasing building energy consumptions, greater risks of condensation issues, and decreased occupant comfort. This thesis aims to understand the impact of the thermal conductivity change due to temperature when the insulation is used for exterior walls and flat roofs. Experimental results were used in detailed building energy simulations in the continental and humid temperate climates of Toronto and Milan respectively. Common rigid insulating materials boards were taken into account, such as fiberglass, rock- wool, polyisocyanurate, extruded polystyrene, and a hybrid insulation system, that is constituted by two different materials, polyisocyanurate and rockwool.

Abstract:
This degree project presents a study case in Eskilstuna-Sweden, regarding the effect of the photovoltaic (PV) systems with battery energy storage system (BESS) on a power distribution transformer, and how they could change the transformer lifespan. For that, an extensive literature review has been conducted, and two MATLAB models were used to simulate the system. One model simulates the PV generation profile, with the option of including battery in the system, and the other one simulates the transformer loss of life (LOL) based on the thermal characteristics. Simulations were using hourly time steps over a year with provided load profile based on utility data and typical meteorological year weather data from SMHI and STRÅNG. In this study, three different scenarios have been put into consideration to study the change of LOL. The first scenario applies various levels of PV penetrations without energy storage, while, the other scenarios include energy storage under different operating strategies, self-consumption, and peak shaving. Similarly, different battery capacities have been applied for the purpose of studying the LOL change. Thus, under different PV penetrations and battery capacities, results included the variation of LOL, grid power, battery energy status, and battery power. Moreover, results concluded that the PV system has the maximum impact on LOL variation, as it could decrease it by 33.4 %, and this percentage could increase by applying different battery capacities to the system. Finally, LOL corresponding to the battery under peak shaving strategy varies according to the battery discharge target. As different peak shaving targets were used to control the battery discharge, and hence, study the impact on the transformer and estimate its LOL.

Abstract:
Buildings are a significant source of energy consumption in the US and worldwide, and conditioning building interiors occupies a major portion of that expenditure. At the building level, a particular scenario can occur where it becomes more advantageous for a structure’s walls to be “open” to the outside, as opposed to remaining “closed”, in an insulating state. For instance, a cool night may follow a hot summer day after the sun sets, but traditional insulation captures heat built up inside a home. A clear, sunny day may also heat a building’s exterior during a cold winter day, and heat transfer to the interior would be more desirable than insulation. This paper presents a study of a concept, termed “smart insulation”, that could be used in such scenarios to take advantage of beneficial thermal gradients in order to save heating and cooling costs. Enabling heat transfer without moving air can also help control humidity within interior spaces, as well as limit noise either from moving air or through open windows. Unlike traditional insulation that maintains a specific insulating value during its useful life, smart insulation changes between an insulating and a conducting state depending on the thermal gradient. Some design concepts have been fabricated and were tested in an insulated chamber that provides a “hot side” and a “cool side”. In the test chamber, temperature measurements were taken and the insulating capacity of each design specimen was calculated. Results indicate that the designs have potential to operate between two states (with the best case ranging from 11% to 61% of a benchmark insulation case) and effectively provide sustainable heating or cooling by capitalizing on ambient outdoor conditions.

Abstract:
There are currently a wide variety of insulation systems available for deep water subsea applications. These systems are applied in a number of different configurations including externally bonded systems, pre-manufactured insulation modules that are strapped on to subsea structures and pipe-in-pipe (PIP) insulation systems. The most common insulation materials include polymers such as polyurethane, epoxies and polypropylene and for deep water applications these are used in two main forms; syntactic foam and composite syntactic foam. The limits associated with current insulation systems include lack of experience on the performance of these systems in long-term deepwater service and relatively low temperature limits when exposed to hot/wet conditions. At present, tests for assessing their thermal and physical properties are manufacturer-dependent and, for a purchaser of such systems, need to be interpreted across a range of existing and new materials and manufacturer specifications. The immediate and long-term effects of temperature, hydrostatic pressure and environmental exposure are not yet fully understood. Currently there is a lack of agreed-upon standards for insulation materials. There is a requirement in the industry for the development of consistent standards for the specification, design, materials, manufacturing and testing of insulation materials and systems. To address this requirement a Joint Industry Project (JIP) commenced in April 2000 to develop a new industry wide standard for insulation and buoyancy materials, designated the InSpec JIP. Twenty companies are participating in the JIP, including nine oil companies, eight manufacturers of insulation/buoyancy products and three contractors. This paper presents a review of the current state-of-the-art for thermal insulation systems for deep water applications. The capabilities of alternative systems are reviewed and evaluated. The key issues associated with each system type and critical parameters for the most common insulation materials are presented and discussed. The development of industry standards within the InSpec JIP to address the critical issues for qualification is highlighted within this paper.
