Within this work, we present a warm-started algorithm for Model Predictive Control (MPC) of
switched nonlinear systems under combinatorial constraints based on Combinatorial …

Adsorption heat pumps and chillers provide sustainable heating and cooling by transforming
waste or solar heat. To increase the efficiency of adsorption heat pumps and chillers, new …

Since the adsorption chillers do not use primary energy as driving source the possibility to
employ low temperature waste heat sources in cooling energy production receives …

Sustainable refrigeration systems are of great importance to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions. In particular, CO 2 vapour compression cycles are very promising due to their …

With the development of primary energy consumption and global climate change are
encouraged air conditioning chillers to conventional air-conditioning methods. In the last …

The control strategy strongly influences the performance of adsorption chillers: efficiency
and power density depend on phase times for adsorption and desorption. The optimal …

This work presents an algorithm for solution of Mixed-Integer Optimal Control Problems
(MIOCPs) for Solar Thermal Climate Systems (STCSs) with MPC-capable runtime. We …

Adsorptive drying systems aim at short drying times and small packaging. Thus, fast heat
and mass transfer and high uptakes of the adsorbent are required. For this purpose, novel …

The control strategy strongly influences the performance of adsorption chillers: both
efficiency and cooling power depend on phase times for adsorption and desorption. For a …

The article describes a new method for making management decisions on heat supply in
district heating systems, based on solving a sequence of recurrence relations of first-order …
