Willem Mazzotti Pallard's PhD mid-term seminar

Willem is a PhD canditate in the area of applied thermodynamics technology. Part of his research is about Lab-scaled experiments that is fully tested at KTH Live-In Lab.

On the 17th of April , Willem held his PhD "mid-term" seminar via zoom.

You can watch a recording of the presentation with the title Thermal response of borehole heat exchangers: modeling and experimental analysis .

There are 6 parts in the presentation (use the timeline in the description of the video to navigate the presentation):

1. 1. Global context and introduction Energy and greenhouse gas emissions global figures and potential with ground source heat pumps
2. 2. Thermal Response Tests How measurement noise can corrupt parameter estimation, model errors and optimization algorithm
3. 3. Deep boreholes Advantages/drawbacks, investment costs, experimental results
4. 4. Lab-scale experiment How to design a lab-scale borehole storage so that results can be properly up-scaled.
5. 5. High-temperature borehole thermal energy storage New performance indicators (exergy) and a case study.
6. 6. Future work Non-parametric identification and further investigation of deep boreholes.

Opposition from Prof. Johan Claesson.
