Using Renewable Energies in Buildings

This textbook helps to effectively use regenerative systems for heat and cold generation. Integration and automation diagrams provide a quick overview. Practical examples clearly show standard solutions for the integration of regenerative energy sources. Control questions at the end of the main chapters serve to consolidate the understanding of the content.

The content Introduction - Basics of the use of renewable energy sources in buildings - Energy supply from renewable energy sources - Storage systems - Automation of systems for heat and cold supply - Function monitoring and yield control - Automation devices and their connection The target groups - Students of mechanical engineering and process engineering at universities and technical colleges Technology - Practitioners and engineers who deal with building automation solutions

- Plant planners and sales engineers in the field of technical building equipment.

This book is a translation of an original German edition. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
