- This letter presents a microelectrode cell dedicated to direct assessment of the solid-liquid interface noise without recourse to a reference electrode. In the present design, two identical TiN electrodes of various sizes are used for differential measurements in KCl-based electrolytes. Measured noise of the TiN vertical bar electrolyte system is found to be of thermal nature. Scaling inversely with electrode area, the noise is concluded to mainly arise from the solid-liquid interface. This noise is comparable to or larger than that of the state-of-the-art MOSFETs. Therefore, its influence cannot be overlooked for the design of future ion sensors.

Numerical study on thermal performance of a gravity assisted loop heat pipe
- 2017
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article carried out a parametric study of the thermal performance of a novel gravity assisted loop heat pipe (GALHP)with composite mesh-screen wick structure. A refined three-way structure with interior liquid-vapour separator wasdeveloped on top of the evaporator to enable a gravity-assisted operation, which not only simplified the correspondingwick structure but also eliminated the ‘dry-out’ potential in conventional GALHPs. A dedicated simulation model wasdeveloped on basis of the heat transfer and the flow characteristics derived from the governing equations of mass, energyand momentum. The essential impact parameters to the GALHP thermal performance were further discussed. It was foundthat the GALHP thermal performance, represented by the reciprocal of overall thermal resistance, varies directly withapplied heat load, evaporator diameter, and vapour-liquid separator diameter. The research results would be useful fordesign, optimisation and application of such GALHP in the gravity-assisted circumstance for thermal management.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Net-zero energy buildings (NZEBs) are considered as a promising method to mitigating the energy problems. Due to the intermittent characteristics of renewable energy (e.g., solar energy), NZEBs need to frequently exchange energy with the grid, which imposes severe negative impacts on the grid especially the overvoltage risk. Both planning and design are essential for reducing NZEB connected grid overvoltage, but most existing studies isolated the efforts from planning to design, thereby failing to achieve the best cumulative result. More importantly, existing studies oversimplified overvoltage quantification by using aggregated power interactions to represent overvoltage risk, which cannot consider the complex voltage influences among grid nodes. Due to the isolated efforts and the quantification oversimplification, existing studies can hardly achieve overvoltage risk minimization. Therefore, this study proposes a novel GA (genetic algorithm)-based method in which the key planning and design parameters are optimized sequentially for mitigating the overvoltage risk. Meanwhile, distribution network model has been adopted to precisely quantify the grid overvoltage. The study results show that the proposed method is highly effective in reducing NZEB cluster connected grid overvoltage risk. The proposed method can be used in practice for improving NZEB cluster planning and system design as grid interaction is considered. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd

Characteristics and Application Analysis of a Novel Full Fresh Air System Using Only Geothermal Energy for Space Cooling and Dehumidification
- 2024

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- To effectively reduce building energy consumption, a novel full fresh air system with a heat source tower (HST) and a borehole heat exchanger (BHE) was proposed for space cooling and dehumidification in this paper. The cooling system only adopts geothermal energy to produce dry and cold fresh air for space cooling and dehumidification through the BHE and HST, which has the advantage of non-condensate water compared to BHE systems integrated with a fan coil or chilled beam. Based on the established mathematical model of the cooling system, this paper analyzed the system characteristics, feasibility, operation strategy, energy performance, and cost-effectiveness of the proposed model in detail. The results show that the mathematical model has less than 10% error in estimating the system performance compared to the practical HST-BHE experimental set up. Under the specific boundary conditions, the cooling and dehumidification capacity of this system increases with the decrease in the air temperature, air moisture content, and inlet water temperature of the HST. The optimal cooling capacity and the system COP can be achieved when the air-water flow ratio is at 4:3. A case study was conducted in a residential building in Shenyang with an area of about 1800 m2. It was found that this system can fully meet the cooling and dehumidification demand in such a residential building. The operation strategy of the cooling system can be optimized by adjusting the air-water flow ratio from 4:3 to 3:2 during the early cooling season (7 June-1 July) and end cooling season (3 August-1 September). As a result, the average COP of the cooling system during the whole cooling season can be improved from 6.1 to 8.7. Compared with the air source heat pump (ASHP) and the ground source heat pump (GSHP) for space cooling, the proposed cooling system can achieve an energy saving rate of 123% and 26%, respectively. Considering that the BHE of the GSHP can be part of the proposed HST-BHE cooling system, the integration of the HST and GHSP for space cooling (and heating) is strongly recommended in actual applications.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Knowledge of interfacial interactions between analytes and functionalized sensor surfaces, from where the signal originates, is key to the development and application of electronic sensors. The present work explores the tunability of pH sensitivity by the synergy of surface charge and molecular dipole moment induced by interfacial proton interactions. This synergy is demonstrated on a silicon‐nanoribbon field‐effect transistor (SiNR‐FET) by functionalizing the sensor surface with properly designed chromophore molecules. The chromophore molecules can interact with protons and lead to appreciable changes in interface dipole moment as well as in surface charge state. In addition, the dipole moment can be tuned not only by the substituent on the chromophore but also by the anion in the electrolyte interacting with the protonated chromophore. By designing surface molecules to enhance the surface dipole moment upon protonation, an above‐Nernstian pH sensitivity is achieved on the SiNR‐FET sensor. This finding may bring an innovative strategy for tailoring the sensitivity of the SiNR‐FET‐based pH sensor toward a wide range of applications.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Occupancy behaviour plays an important role in energy consumption in buildings. Currently, the shallow understanding of occupancy has led to a considerable performance gap between predicted and measured energy use. This paper presents an approach to estimate the occupancy based on blind system identification (BSI), and a prediction model of electricity consumption by an air-conditioning system is developed and reported based on an artificial neural network with the BSI estimation of the number of occupants as an input. This starts from the identification of indoor CO2 dynamics derived from the mass-conservation law and venting levels. The unknown parameters, including the occupancy and model parameters, are estimated by using a frequentist maximum-likelihood algorithm and Bayesian estimation. The second phase is to establish the prediction model of the electricity consumption of the air-conditioning system by using a feed-forward neural network (FFNN) and extreme learning machine (ELM), as well as ensemble models. To analyse some aspects of the benchmark test for identifying the effect of structure parameters and input-selection alternatives, three studies are conducted on (1) the effect of predictor selection based on principal component analysis, (2) the effect of the estimated occupancy as the supplementary input, and (3) the effect of the neural network ensemble. The result shows that the occupancy number, as the input, is able to improve the accuracy in predicting energy consumption using a neural network model.

Considerations for the Cyclic Voltammetry of Gold in Sulfuric Acid Solutions
- 2018
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- A comprehensive understanding of the cyclic voltammetry (CV) for gold surfaces is essential for advanced applications. In the present study, a series of experiments were designed to investigate CV for gold under different experimental conditions when using a conventional configuration of a Ag/AgCl/sat. KCl reference electrode and a platinum wire counter electrode. The interferences introduced by the configuration were reflected in the three fingerprint regions of the voltammograms. It was found that the shape of the voltammograms was less reproducible at a lower sample volume when the cycle number was increased. This observation could be explained by different concentrations of Cl- leaking from the reference electrode and platinum dissolved from the counter electrode. The reproducibility of the gold oxidation and reduction (Ox/Re) region in the voltammograms was improved when gold dissolution and re-deposition caused by Cl- leakage was eliminated by using a bridge. In the hydrogen evolution and oxidation reactions (HER/HOR) region the catalytic performance of the gold electrode could be minimized by replacing the platinum counter electrode with a graphite rod. Alternatively, it could be enhanced by increasing the surface ratio of the co-deposited platinum to gold. In the electric double layer (EDL) region, peaks dependent on the concentrations of Cl- and SO42- were observed. To account for the occurrence of these peaks, a new mechanism based on the formation of neutral gold (I) complexes at very low Au+ concentrations, was proposed.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Gold is widely used as the electrode material in different chemi- and biosensing applications while cyclic voltammetry (CV) in sulfuric acid solutions is a commonly employed method for gold surface preparation and characterization. However, as shown herein, chloride leakage from the Ag/AgCl/sat. KCl reference electrode and platinum dissolution from the platinum counter electrode can severely compromise the reproducibility and hence the reliability of the prepared gold electrodes. The aim of this work is to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the separate and interdependent effects of the aforementioned factors on the voltammetric behavior of microfabricated polycrystalline gold electrodes. It is shown that the leakage of chloride gives rise to etching of both the gold working and the platinum counter electrodes and that the chloride concentration has a strong influence on the ratio between the obtained gold and platinum concentrations in the electrolyte. The dissolved gold and platinum are then re-deposited on the gold electrode on the cathodic voltammetric scan, changing the structure and properties of the electrode. It is also demonstrated that the changes in the properties of the gold electrode are determined by the ratio between the co-deposited platinum and gold rather than the absolute amount of platinum deposited on the gold electrode. In addition, the chloride and sulfate adsorption behavior on the gold electrode is carefully investigated. It is proposed that redox peaks due to the formation ofthe corresponding Au(I) complexes can be seen in the double layer region of the voltammogram. The results show that the chloride leakage from the reference electrode needs to be carefully controlled and that platinum counter electrodes should be avoided when developing gold sensing electrodes. The present comprehensive understanding of the electrochemical performance of gold electrodes prepared using CV should be of significant importance in conjunction with both fundamental investigations and practical applications.

- The heat and mass transfer process of a novel cross-flow hollow fiber integrated liquid desiccant dehumidification system is analysed numerically. Compared with other porous media or packing towers in dehumidification applications, hollow fibre membranes have significant advantages including low weight, corrosion resistant and no liquid droplet carryover. A novel air-KCOOH cross-flow dehumidification system was designed and manufactured, with 5500 hollow fibres formed into a circular module. The variations of the dehumidification effectiveness and moisture removal rates were studied numerically and validated against experimental results under the incoming air mass flow rates of 0.08-0.26kg/s and relative humidity from 55% to 75%. The dehumidification performance comparisons for the proposed system using CaCl2, LiCl and KCOOH as the desiccants have been conducted as well. The results demonstrated that under the same m*(ratio between solution mass flow rate to the air mass flow rate), the proposed system using 62% KCOOH could achieve approximately the same latent effectiveness compared with 40% CaCl2 and 32% LiCl, with the at least 3.1% sensible effectiveness increased by. Therefore, it could be concluded that the proposed system using KCOOH as desiccant could be more applicable for dehumidification purpose compared with other systems using conventional liquid desiccants.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Au nanoparticles show large third-order nonlinear effect and ultra-fast response. Here a high nonlinear aggregate film based on self-assembled gold nanoparticles is reported and its third-order nonlinear refractive index coefficient is measured by Z-scan experiment. The third-order nonlinear refractive index coefficient of the Au nanoparticle aggregate film (gamma(1) = 9.2 x 10(-9) cm(2)/W) is found to be larger than that of an 8-nm-thick sputtered Au film (gamma(2)= 6.5 x 10(-9) cm(2)/W). This large nonlinear effect can be attributed to the strong field enhancement due to localized plasmon resonances between Au nanoparticles. The result shows that the self-assembled Au nanoparticle aggregate film could be a promising candidate as a third-order nonlinear optical material.

- Nowadays, PM2.5 concentrations greatly influence indoor air quality in subways and threaten passenger and staff health because PM2.5 not only contains heavy metal elements, but can also carry toxic and harmful substances due to its small size and large specific surface area. Exploring the physicochemical and distribution characteristics of PM2.5 in subways is necessary to limit its concentration and remove it. At present, there are numerous studies on PM2.5 in subways around the world, yet, there is no comprehensive and well-organized review available on this topic. This paper reviews the nearly twenty years of research and over 130 published studies on PM2.5 in subway stations, including aspects such as concentration levels and their influencing factors, physicochemical properties, sources, impacts on health, and mitigation measures. Although many determinants of station PM2.5 concentration have been reported in current studies, e.g., the season, outdoor environment, and station depth, their relative influence is uncertain. The sources of subway PM2.5 include those from the exterior (e.g., road traffic and fuel oil) and the interior (e.g., steel wheels and rails and metallic brake pads), but the proportion of these sources is also unknown. Control strategies of PM mainly include adequate ventilation and filtration, but these measures are often inefficient in removing PM2.5. The impacts of PM2.5 from subways on human health are still poorly understood. Further research should focus on long-term data collection, influencing factors, the mechanism of health impacts, and PM2.5 standards or regulations.

- Hollow fibres have been studied as the substitute for metallic materials due to the advantages such as light weight, corrosion resistant and low cost in heat and mass transfer applications. A novel polymer hollow fibre liquid desiccant dehumidification system, in which a cross-flow hollow fibre module (fibre inside diameter=1.4mm) serves as the dehumidifier, is presented in this paper. This novel hollow fibre integrated liquid desiccant dehumidification system can be used in an air conditioning system to provide a comfortable indoor environment for hot and humid area. Compared with other conventional liquid desiccant dehumidifier, the polymer hollow fibre has a very small diameter which leads to significantly increased surface area. Moreover, the porous feature of the hollow fibre module can help to eliminate any liquid desiccant droplets carryover into the process air. As a less corrosive and more environmental friendly working fluid, aqueous potassium formate (KCOOH) solution has been selected. The dehumidification performance of the proposed system were analysed experimentally under the conditions of incoming air temperature in the range of 30°C to 45°C. The variations of dehumidification sensible and latent effectiveness, moisture removal rates were studied by varying the incoming air velocity from 0.65 m/s to 4.5m/s. With the various values of incoming air relative humidity in the range of 55% to 75% and the solution concentrations between 36% and 62%, the experimental obtained latent effectiveness are in the range of 0.25 to 0.43 and the sensible effectiveness are in the range of 0.31 to 0.52, which is in a satisfactory agreement with the empirical correlation of effectiveness-NTU in the literature.

- Due to the advantages of light weight, corrosion resistant and low cost, hollow fibres have been studied as the substitute for metallic materials. A novel hollow fibre integrated evaporative cooling system, in which the hollow fibre module constitutes as the humidifier and the evaporative cooler, is proposed. This novel hollow fibre integrated evaporative cooling system will provide a comfortable indoor environment for hot and dry area. Moreover, the water vapour can permeate through the hollow fibre effectively, and the liquid water droplets will be prevented from mixing with the processed air. In order to avoid the flow channelling or shielding of adjacent fibres, the fibres inside each bundle were made into a spindle shape to allow maximum contact between the air stream and the fibre. The cooling performances of the proposed novel polymer hollow fibre integrated evaporative cooling system were experimentally investigated under the incoming air temperature in the range of 26 °C to 32 °C and relative humidity of 25%–35%. The effects of air velocities on the cooling effectiveness, heat and mass transfer coefficients, specific water consumption and pressure drop across the polymer hollow fibre module were analysed. Two sets of experimentally derived non-dimensional heat and mass transfer correlations were summarized, which could be favourable for the future design of polymer hollow fibre integrated evaporative cooling system.

Research Roadmap for Intelligent and Responsive Buildings
- 2018

Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Intelligence has three parts cognitive, emotional and practical. A building needs to reflect this. So an intelligent building will responsive to people in terms of not only being functional but to the human senses besides serving a community in the location. It will be resource effective in terms of energy , water and waste with low pollution. It will be smart in terms of technology selected to enable the systems to respond effectively but also make them easier for people to use. Today there is a focus on health and wellbeing and so intelligent buildings must produce a healing environment. Buildings need to be functional and practical but also expressive. Equally important is the infrastructure that services buildings and the people moving between them.

- This paper reported a review based study into the Indirect Evaporative Cooling (IEC) technology, which was undertaken from a variety of aspects including background, history, current status, concept, standardisation, system configuration, operational mode, research and industrialisation, market prospect and barriers, as well as the future focuses on R&D and commercialisation. This review work indicated that the IEC technology has potential to be an alternative to conventional mechanical vapour compression refrigeration systems to take up the air conditioning duty for buildings. Owing to the continuous progress in technology innovation, particularly the M-cycle development and associated heat and mass transfer and material optimisation, the IEC systems have obtained significantly enhanced cooling performance over those the decade ago, with the wet-bulb effectiveness of greater than 90% and energy efficiency ratio (EER) up to 80. Structure of the IEC heat and mass exchanger varied from flat-plate-stack, tube, heat pipe and potentially wave-form. Materials used for making the exchanger elements (plate/tube) included fibre sheet with the single side water proofing, aluminium plate/tube with single side wicked setting (grooved, meshed, toughed etc), and ceramic plate/tube with single side water proofing. Counter-current water flow relevant to the primary air is considered the favourite choice; good distribution of the water stream across the wet surface of the exchanger plate (tube) and adequate (matching up the evaporation) control of the water flow rate are critical to achieving the expected system performance. It was noticed that the IEC devices were always in combined operation with other cooling measures and the commonly available IEC related operational modes are (1) IEC/DEC system; (2) IEC/DEC/mechanical vapour compression system; (3) IEC/desiccant system; (4) IEC/chilled water system; and (5) IEC/heat pipe system. The future potential operational modes may also cover the IEC-inclusive fan coil units, air handle units, cooling towers, solar driven desiccant cycle, and Rankine cycle based power generation system etc. Future works on the IEC technology may focus on (1) heat exchanger structure and material; (2) water flowing, distribution and treatment; (3) incorporation of the IEC components into conventional air conditioning products to enable combined operation between the IEC and other cooling devices; (4) economic, environment and social impacts; (5) standardisation and legislation; (6) public awareness and other dissemination measures; and (7) manufacturing and commercialisation. All above addressed efforts may help increase the market ratio of the IEC to around 20% in the next 20 years, which will lead to significant saving of fossil fuel consumption and cut of carbon emission related to buildings.

- Current perception and monitoring systems, such as human recognition, are affected by several environmental factors, such as limited light intensity, weather changes, occlusion of targets, and public privacy. Human recognition using radar signals is a promising direction to overcome these defects; however, the low signal-to-noise ratio of radar signals still makes this task challenging. Therefore, it is necessary to use suitable tools that can efficiently deal with radar signals to identify targets. Reservoir computing (RC) is an efficient machine learning scheme that is easy to train and demonstrates excellent performance in processing complex time-series signals. The RC hardware implementation structure based on nonlinear nodes and delay feedback loops endows it with the potential for real-time fast signal processing. In this paper, we numerically study the performance of the optoelectronic RC composed of optical and electrical components in the task of human recognition with noisy micro-Doppler radar signals. A single-loop optoelectronic RC is employed to verify the application of RC in this field, and a parallel dual-loop optoelectronic RC scheme with a dual-polarization Mach–Zehnder modulator (DPol-MZM) is also used for performance comparison. The result is verified to be comparable with other machine learning tools, which demonstrates the ability of the optoelectronic RC in capturing gait information and dealing with noisy radar signals; it also indicates that optoelectronic RC is a powerful tool in the field of human target recognition based on micro-Doppler radar signals.

- Nonlinear impairment is one of the critical limits to enhancing the performance of high-speed communication systems. Traditional digital signal processing (DSP)-based nonlinear channel equalization schemes are influenced by limited bandwidth, high power consumption, and high processing latency. Optoelectronic reservoir computing (RC) is considered a promising optical signal processing (OSP) technique with merits such as large bandwidth, high power efficiency, and low training complexity. In this paper, optoelectronic RC was employed to solve the nonlinear channel equalization problem. A parallel optoelectronic RC scheme with a dual-polarization Mach-Zehnder modulator (DPol-MZM) is proposed and demonstrated numerically. The nonlinear channel equalization performance was greatly enhanced compared with the traditional optoelectronic RC and the Volterra-based nonlinear DSP schemes. In addition, the system efficiency was improved with a single DPol-MZM.
