An ANN-based optimization approach of building energy systems: Case study of swimming pool
Li, Yantong; Nord, Natasa; Zhang, Nan; Zhou, Cheng (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Reliable models are necessary for optimization of building energy systems. However, artificial neural network (ANN) models developed by measured data is hard to accurately reflect physical characteristics of systems due ... -
Investigation on the energy performance of using air-source heat pump to charge PCM storage tank
Li, Yantong; Zhang, Nan; Ding, Zhixiong (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Nowadays air-source heat pumps are widely used to collect heat from ambient air, which can reduce operating cost and protect environment when compared with fossil-based heating systems. To increase the flexibility of heat ... -
A multi-objective optimal design method for thermal energy storage systems with PCM: A case study for outdoor swimming pool heating application
Li, Yantong; Ding, Zhixiong; Shakerin, Mohammad; Zhang, Nan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Traditional design methods for thermal energy storage systems (TES) with phase change material (PCM) are mostly based on worst-case scenario, which causes too large size of main components. Current optimal design methods ...
