In this article, we mixed hollow glass beads with nano-TiO2 and iron oxide red in a certain proportion to prepare a low-brightness, high-reflective, safe, and durable cooling coating throughout the experiments. The coating is suitable for energy-saving in tropical areas. To discuss the energy saving effects of the coating on an exterior envelope in tropical areas, a comparative analysis for two scenario models of a two-story residential building in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia was conducted. The results indicated that the heat reflective insulation coating could reduce the exterior envelope surface temperature effectively, and the maximum temperature change was about 6–8 °C. Through calculations, it was found that the annual energy saving rate was 12.9%, which showed that the energy saving effect of the heat insulation coating was obvious in Kuala Lumpur. The brightness of the coating was less than 50%, and its comfort and safety met the requirements.

Energy saving devices (ESD) such as propeller ducts, pre-swirl stators, pre-nozzles, etc have been explored as a more economic and reliable approach to reduce energy consumption for both in-operation and newly design ships over the past decades. Those energy saving devices work in the principle of reducing ship resistance and improving propulsion efficiency as well as hull-propeller interactions. Potential saving from various types of ESD have been reported in literature from the range of 3–9% [1] for propulsion efficiency dependent on different measures. Deployment of those devices on actual full-scale ships has been limited over the past years. One of the key obstacles in application of ESD is the lack of confidence in measuring its efficiency on full-scale ships in actual operational conditions. Advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has provided an alternative approach from model scale test to better understand uncertainties in prediction of ESD efficiency in full-scale ship operations [Shin et al, 2013]. In this work a high fidelity CFD model is presented for investigation effects of pre-nozzles on propulsion efficiency and ship resistance. The model is based on the Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes (RANS) solver with different turbulent models including a hybrid detached eddy simulation (DES) approach for predictions of complex near body flow features as well as in the wake regions from hull and propeller. The model is validated with model test for both towing and self-propulsion conditions. Finally a study of pre-nozzle effects on propeller efficiency as well as hull-propeller interaction is presented and compared with available experimental data (Tokyo 2015 Workshop). The current work constitutes a fundamental approach towards designing more efficient ESD for a specific hull form and propeller.

Abstract This paper analyzes the energy saving effect and optimal operation of the integrated park type energy system. The park type integrated energy system includes photovoltaic power generation system, ground source heat pump system, solar air conditioning system, regenerative electric boiler system and solar hot water system and so on. The energy saving benefit calculation model of each subsystem is established, and according to the operation history data of each subsystem, the calculation results of each subsystem are analyzed. It shows that: The energy saving income of photovoltaic power generation system is 734,200 yuan/year. The main revenue comes from the second and third quarters, during which it should pay attention to the maintenance of photovoltaic modules to ensure the maximum energy saving benefit. The energy saving income of ground source heat pump system in summer is 155,900 yuan/year, and the energy saving effect is not significant. It can cooperate with traditional units for cooling in summer. The heating in winter in the park is provided by ground source heat pump system, regenerative electric boiler system and solar energy air conditioning system. Its energy saving benefit is 3.995 million yuan/year which is the main source of energy saving income in the park, with remarkable energy saving effect.

Reducing heating temperature is a universally recognized energy saving measure. However, the same city has buildings completed in different years and with different functional USES at the same time. It is an important issue worth discussing whether it is reasonable for the government to advocate reducing heating temperature by the same range. Based on DOE medium-sized office building as the object, using the Beijing meteorological database system, the thermal characteristics of four envelopment structures representing different completion years, the annual heating energy saving and relative energy saving ratio when the set indoor heating temperature is reduced by the same range are studied. The results show that the worse the thermal performance of the envelope is, the greater the annual heating energy is when the heating setting temperature drops by the same extent. It indicates that the older the building is, the better heating energy saving effect and more heating cost can be achieved by advocating lowering the heating setting temperature of the same range. For the annual relative energy saving ratio, the older buildings with worse envelope structure are slightly higher, while the new buildings with better envelope structure are slightly lower, but they are similar on the whole. It is proved that the policy of reducing heating temperature by the same range in the same city is reasonable for achieving similar energy saving ratio.

The recent expansion of the internet network and rapid advancements in information and communication technology are expected to lead to a significant increase in power consumption and the number of data centers. However, these data centers consume a considerable amount of electric power all year round, regardless of working days or holidays; thus, energy saving at these facilities has become essential. A disproportionate level of power consumption is concentrated in computer rooms because air conditioners in these rooms are required to operate throughout the year to maintain a constant indoor environment for stable operation of computer equipment with high-heat release densities. Considerable energy-saving potential is expected in such computer rooms, which consume high levels of energy, if an outdoor air-cooling system and air conditioners are installed. These systems can reduce the indoor space temperature by introducing a relatively low outdoor air temperature. Therefore, we studied the energy-saving effect of introducing an outdoor air-cooling system in a computer room with a disorganized arrangement of servers and an inadequate air conditioning system in a research complex in Korea. The findings of this study confirmed that annual energy savings of up to approximately 40% can be achieved.
