At PXL-Green & Tech the question was asked: “How can existing renewable technologies be combined to get to optimal energy flow of a HVAC-system?” To find an answer the campus in Diepenbeek was converted to a Living Lab. Heat pumps and solar systems got an upgrade with the addition of energy storage vessels (heating/cooling). The control system and monitoring for this hybrid system was set up by the students (junior colleagues).

In our campus PXL Tech, technology is at the centre of things. Multiple projects are concluded successfully to enhance comfort and optimise (reduce energy consumption.
The ‘Eisspeicher’ or ‘ice buffer’ project will help to make our campus more sustainable. The company Encon donated the buffer. We will connect this ice buffering technology to the existing Focus-project ‘Optimisation of energy flows’ where a heat pump cools and heats energy efficient and sustainably.

New Mollier diagram

Mollier diagram in Excel v2

The past academic year we continued work on the Mollier diagram in Excel. This year Nicolas Beerten refined the result of Bjorn Es. Next to the European graph (also ISO-graph) of the Mollier diagram you can now choose the American or IP-version. As usual this Excel sheet is free to use as it is, no guarantees, no macros and no security passwords.
