The investigation has shown that the main cause of the global climate change is “anthropogenic thermal pollution,” which is created by the activity of mankind and creates the prerequisites for breaking the heat balance of the planet and transferring the climate into a state of self-heating. By different estimates, in 20-60 years there could be a point of no return for the warming of the climate of Earth when no material resources of mankind are able to stop the global disaster connected with thawing of glaciers, increasing level of the ocean of 80-100 m and the transition of the Earth climate to a condition incompatible with biological life. Urgent transition to fuel-free power and a change of radiation balance of Earth by increasing the albedo of the cities and deserts is necessary. Calculating the area of specular reflectors and the area of deserts necessary for their location, are necessary to prevent global warming, and showed that the required area is 0.95-1.21% of the area of the African desert.

Abstract A comprehensive study of the efficiency of the 1.5 MW Arimax Bio Energy hot water boiler operating on wood pellets with a high amount of fines has been carried out. Fuel characteristics and its compliance with the quality requirements of Russian and European standards have been investigated. The components of the heat balance and emission of harmful substances have been determined. Thermovision study of the boiler was carried out. The comprehensive study showed that the boiler provides sufficiently high technical and economic performance and minimal emissions of nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide. However, the high amount of fines in the pellets significantly increases the emissions of particulate matter and especially black carbon into the environment.

Постановка задачи. Температура на внутренней поверхности наружного угла всегда меньше, чем по глади наружной стены, что при низких температурах наружного воздуха может приводить к образованию конденсата на внутренней поверхности стены. В связи с этим актуальным является проблема разработки инженерного метода расчета температуры в наружном углу для исключения возможности конденсатообразования на внутренней поверхности угла на стадии проектирования стеновых конструкций. Результаты. Для решения этой задачи на основе решения уравнения теплового баланса, учета амплитуды колебания температуры воздуха в помещении и теплопоглощения внутренних поверхностей стен, междуэтажных перекрытий (поверхности потолка и пола), перегородок, окон получена формула для вычисления температуры на внутренней поверхности наружного угла. Также в ходе исследования проведены натурные испытания стеновой конструкции с наружным углом и получены значения температур на внутренней и наружной поверхностях. Выводы. Сопоставление результатов расчетов по разработанной методике и экспериментальных данных показало, что значения температур на внутренней поверхности наружного угла практически совпадают. Это дает основание использовать предложенный инженерный метод расчета температуры на внутренней поверхности угла наружной стены при проектировании ограждающих конструкций зданий для создания благоприятных комфортных и санитарно-гигиенических условий в помещении. Statement of the problem. The temperature on the inner surface of the outer corner is always lower than on the inner surface of the outer wall. This temperature difference might lead to the formation of condensation on the inner surface of the wall at low outdoor temperatures. Therefore the problem of developing an engineering method for calculating the temperature in the outer corner to exclude the possibility of condensation on the inner surface in the design process of the outer wall structures is extremely relevant. Results. To address this problem, based on solving the heat balance equation, taking into account the amplitude of air temperature fluctuations in the room and heat absorption of the inner surfaces of walls, intermediate bottoms (ceiling and floor surfaces), parting walls, a formula was obtained to calculate the temperature on the inner surface of the outer corner. Also, through the course of the study, natural tests of the wall structure with an outer corner were carried out and the temperatures on the inner and outer surfaces were obtained. Conclusions. Comparison of the calculation results using the developed engineering calculation method and experimental data showed that the temperatures on the inner surface of the outer corner almost coincided. This makes it possible to use the suggested engineering method for calculating the temperature on the inner surface of the outer wall corner in the design of enclosing structures to exclude condensation.

Introduction. The article analyzes and selects the most rational methods for calculating the heat gain from solar radiation. The correct calculation of this component of the heat balance allows you to correctly determine the power of the projected cabin climate system, which will ensure optimal working conditions at the workplace of mobile car operators. Problem Statement. The objective of this study is to analyze and select a rational method for calculating heat gain from solar radiation for the correct determination of the thermal load on the climate system of the cabin of a mobile car. Theoretical Part. To implement the task, the most common methods for calculating solar radiation were described and analyzed in detail and the most accurate ones were recommended. Conclusions. The more labor-intensive method of V.N. Bogoslovskiy (taking into account the time of day) can be recommended for automated calculations in Excel, and the method of P.Y. Gamburg (taking into account the sides of the horizon) — for comparative estimated engineering calculations. When conducting "in-depth" model calculations and accounting for solar radiation, the ASHRAE method is explicitly suitable, which has two important advantages: it takes into account the solar factor in relation to a specific type of glazing and is adapted for automated calculations in ANSYS FLUENT.

The depleting and increasingly complex mineral resources bring challenges into the area of metal production, bringing new boundary conditions to the smelting and refining processes. Thermodynamics of phases and equilibria are the key to the analysis of pyrometallurgical processes, enabling descriptions of their limiting boundary conditions. The raw material basis of non-ferrous metals needs an effective control of iron oxide fluxing due to the challenging fact that the targeted metal values of, e.g., copper, nickel, lead, and tin will exist as minority components in the smelter feeds compared to iron sulphides, gangue, and many harmful elements. This means more complex slag compositions and the amount of produced slag being several times that of the metal production. This feature severely impacts the heat balance of the smelting vessels where autogenous operation without external fuels becomes more and more difficult to maintain.

How to perform accurate calculation of heat balance and quantitative analysis of energy efficiency for building clusters is an urgent problem to be solved to reduce building energy consumption and improve energy utilization efficiency. This article proposes a method for the heat balance calculation and energy efficiency analysis of building clusters based on enthalpy and humidity diagrams and applies it to the energy management of building clusters containing primary return air systems and heating pipe networks. Firstly, the basic structure and energy management principle of building clusters with a primary return air system and a heating pipe network were given, and the heat balance calculation and energy efficiency analysis method based on i-d diagram was proposed to realize the accurate calculation of heat load and the quantification of energy utilization. Secondly, the energy management model of the building cluster with a primary return air system and a heating pipe network was established to efficiently manage the indoor temperature and the heating schedule of ASHP, HN and HI. Finally, the proposed method was validated by calculation examples, and the results showed that the proposed method is beneficial for improving the energy economy and energy efficiency of building clusters.

In order to guarantee the performant operation of the braking system of a racing car under high load an optimized thermal design of the braking system is an important factor. Especially in motorsports, a lot of braking energy is converted into heat due to short and intense braking events. Therefore, a suitable cooling concept is a crucial point to ensure a reliable thermal management of the braking system to dissipate the generated heat. In this work, the braking system of the formula student racing car of the UAS Esslingen is analysed using the racing car of the season 2019. A transient 1D simulation model of the heat balance of the braking system is created. For the determination of the heat transfer coefficients a steady 3D Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) simulation model is set up. The logging data of a real race are used for the validation of the presented model (s). The heat balance of the braking system, its entire heat flows as well as the time-dependent temperature evaluation of the brake disc are analysed and compared. The results of this analysis are used to create a cooling concept for the racing car’s braking system, to ensure an optimized braking performance over the entire race. Several different (geometrical) variants of the thermal design of the braking system are investigated using the above mentioned numerical models and the results are presented. Furthermore, the implementation of a cooling duct for the braking system is studied.
