|
Contents: Structure of the heating sector in Denmark. Legislation. Components in DH systems. Economic evaluation. Tariffs and heat metering. House stations for heat and hot water supply. Hydraulic design of pipes. Heat loss determination. Calculation of pressures and temperatures in networks. Looped networks. Pumps. Water treatment. Low temperature operation and optimization.
Contents: In the beginning of the course a number of overview lecture will be given. Next the students (working individually or in small groups) will selct topics for an individual case study. The case study can be theoretical study on recent developments in district heating technology or it can be a study of heating systems in Lund, Malmo, or in Greater Copenhagen.
