Thermal Networks

This section provides tutorials on how to model thermal networks in SAInt. Case studies and use cases are available at the following link "Thermal Network Modeling" covering:

  1. District heating and cooling networks: Plan thermal networks using advanced thermo-hydraulic models to evaluate your system’s mass flow rate, temperature distribution, and heating requirements under different scenarios.

  2. Modernization of district heating networks: Evaluate different solutions to upgrade district heating networks to a new generation. The contribution of waste-to-heat, bore-hole, biomass-based combined heat and power plants, and thermal storage technologies can help transition toward 5th-generation district heat and cold networks.

  3. Low-temperature heat: Analyze the effects of low-temperature heat integration from industrial and commercial processes and renewable sources such as geothermal and solar thermal generation.
