Design of a Heat Exchanger with Thermal Storage using PCM

Energy efficiency is a key goal for the Quooker system. To further increase the energy efficiency of the Quooker system, this study investigates a possible heat integration system where the waste heat from the refrigeration cycle for chilled drinking water is implemented to preheat water before entering the boiling water reservoir.<br/>Due to...

Rapid Building Damage Detection Through SAR Timeseries Analysis in the Google Earth Engine: Using Sentinel-1 GRD imagery in the Google Earth Engine to detect Building Damage in Rapid Disaster Response Situations

Humanitarian crises related to building and infrastructure damage, i.e. natural hazards and collateral damage during warfare, result in many hundreds of thousands of casualties on a yearly base. Earthquakes, for example, are responsible for taking around 50.000 lives on a yearly base due to falling debris and collapsing buildings, making them...
