Classification scheme for building stock energy models

The classification scheme establishes a flexible framework for high-level model classification that: (a) builds from existing classification frameworks while accounting for emerging simulation-based, data-driven, and hybrid modeling techniques; (b) recognizes the potential sub-layers of a building stock energy model; and (c) encourages the description of additional model dimensions that are not readily captured by a high-level classification.

Austrian examples for industrial heat pumps: time of commissioning

Numerous industrial heat pumps were put into operation after 2012. This clearly shows that the spread of industrial heat pumps in Austria is increasing and that more information about these systems is also being published.

Austrian examples for industrial heat pumps: heat sinks

Industrial heat pumps are most often used to heat buildings (33 examples) or to provide district heating (19 examples). Heat supply for processes occurs in 13 examples.

Austrian examples for industrial heat pumps: heat sources

Different heat sources are used. The most common heat sources are processes that need to be cooled and waste heat streams, that still usable heat. In addition, waste heat from refrigerating machines and compressed air systems as well as flue gas condensation is used.

Example illustration of the Indoor Air Quality metric of Subtask 1

An example of Indoor Air Quality / Energy signature for low-energy residential buildings (data represented here are just for display and do not represent actual situation).

Indoor air pollutants in residential housing

This figure illustrates possible indoor air pollutant sources in residential buildings.

Particulate matter emissions during cooking

The figure shows the emitted particulate matter mass as a function of particle size for three different cooking processes.

Schematic illustration of the active overflow principle

This figure shows an example of how the principle of active overflow can be implemented in a residential unit.

Experimental setup for investigating the frosting performance of heat exchangers at low ambient temperatures

Measurement sequence: in the initial phase the thermal mass of the heat exchanger is accommodated to the tempering conditions (A to B1), and then the main frost growth takes place (B1 to B2). Afterwards, the rapid change of the heat exchanger thermal state (at air flow rate curve steepest gradient) takes place (B2), and frost creation continues until the heat exchanger is fully blocked and the temperatures do not change any more (C).

Group photo TU Vienna - Nanjing Symposium Tribology

In December 2024, the 3rd TU Wien-Nanjing Tribology Symposium was held at TU Wien with around 60 international guests on the topic of novel 2D materials and methods for reducing friction and wear. This is also the core topic of Task 12 within the AMT-TCP.

Cross-sectional image of a laser-structured and coated steel surface

The image shows an FIB cross-section of a steel surface that has been structured using laser interference and then coated with a 2D material, in this case MXene as transition metal carbide Ti3C2. The individual MXene flakes deposited in the valleys of the laser structures are clearly recognisable.

Expert audience from all over Austria at the Battery Safety Talk 2024

Around 80 experts from research, development, industry and authorities were able to exchange ideas on the topic of battery safety at the Battery Safety Talk in May 2024. The organizer was the Green Testing Lab in Hartberg, which created the opportunity to get to know different perspectives and to enter discussions with experts from different areas.

Host of the Battery Safety Talk and founder of Green Testing Lab Max Hofer welcomes the participants

As part of the Battery Safety Talk, well-known speakers delivered seven presentations from different perspectives on the topic of battery safety. Aim of the event was to network experts in order to share knowledge and thus increase safety in this area.
