Metabolic and Kinetic impacts of the auxiliary energy source in model chemolithoheterotrophic Bacteria
… route through which electrons oxidised from the auxiliary electron donor, in this case thiosulfate, enter the respiratory chain. The data presented <br/>adds to the evidence that the main pathway of thiosulfate supported oxidative phosphorylation is through the terminal cytochrome-c oxidase via …

System analysis of a PV/T hybrid solar window
… Following this, long term measurements on the energy output from the solar window were performed. A model for simulation of the electric and hot water production was developed and calibrated against the measured values. The model can perform yearly energy simulations where different features …

Heating, ventilating and air-conditioning system energy demand coupling with building loads for office buildings.
… UK building stock accounts for about half of all energy consumed in the UK. A large portion of the energy is consumed by nondomestic buildings. Offices and retail are the most energy intensive typologies within the nondomestic building sector, typically accounting for over 50% of the nondomestic …

Physiological Characterization of Acetotrophic Anaerobic Respiration Using Anaeromyxobacter Dehalogenans as a Model Organism
… however, is attributed to the requirement for auxiliary energy to alleviate the toxicity of chlorophenols. Furthermore, the distinctive ability of A. dehalogenans to oxidize acetate in anaerobic respiration with diverse electron acceptors was investigated using biochemical and molecular …

Integration of energy analyses in design through the use of microcomputers
… design decisions upon environmental comfort and energy efficiency in buildings. Siting, massing, locations of functions, facade and fenestration design, and materials are all important determinants of the perceived thermal and luminous environment of a space. However, the combined complexities of …

Electrochemically driven mechanical energy harvesting
Efficient mechanical energy harvesters enable various wearable devices and may also act as auxiliary energy supply to isolated area. In this thesis, I present a novel class of mechanical energy harvesters based on stress-voltage coupling in electrochemically alloyed electrodes. The device consists …

Integration of gas instantaneous auxiliaries with renewable energy residential water heaters
… water heaters are increasingly used as auxiliary energy sources for renewable energy domestic hot water systems. Currently the gas used by these systems is measured and modelled only very approximately. Accurately assessing consumption is important as gas can supply up to 50% of the …
