energy efficiency

The design and performance of vibration exciters strongly influences the operational efficiency and adaptability of industrial vibratory equipment. Vibratory equipment with such mechanisms is widely used in industries such as mining, construction, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and agriculture, where efficient material handling and precise motion control are critical. Traditional systems face several challenges, including energy inefficiency, limited trajectory control, and a need for more flexibility for diverse industrial applications.

The growing demand for electricity and the need for environmentally friendly energy sources are driving the active development of renewable technologies, with solar energy playing a leading role. Photovoltaic (PV) systems are capable of converting solar radiation into electrical energy; however, their efficiency depends on the ability to adapt to changing external conditions, such as solar irradiance and ambient temperature.

This article presents a comprehensive analysis of hybrid unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with ducted and asymmetric propellers. The results of experimental studies confirm the advantages of using these types of propellers regarding aerodynamic efficiency, energy efficiency, noise reduction, and improved maneuverability. The possibility of combining asymmetric propellers with ducted designs, as well as their impact on thrust, flight stability, and other flight characteristics of drones, is examined in detail.

The results of an analytical review of a large number of publications on the problem of improving the efficiency of thermoelectric generators (TEG) over the past decade are presented. An analysis of historical data on the thermodynamic justification of the efficiency of thermoelectric generators is presented.

In today’s environment, domestic enterprises are increasingly aware of the importance of transitioning to green energy. In this direction, organisations are considering emission standards, using energy-efficient technologies, considering environmental aspects of production, etc. Businesses that reduce their carbon footprint are generally more likely to attract investment. They are also more socially oriented and balanced in terms of sustainable development.

Predicting a building’s energy consumption plays an important role as it can help assess its energy efficiency, identify and diagnose energy system faults, and reduce costs and improve climate impact. An analysis of current research in the field of ensuring the energy efficiency of buildings, in particular, their energy assessment, considering the types of models under consideration, was carried out.

The paper presents the results of a study aimed at increasing energy efficiency in residential buildings, as well as an analysis of the humidity state and the possibility of condensation when using internal insulation. Numerical simulations were performed to confirm the results. The obtained results indicate that the use of mineral insulation "BETOL®" and aluminum foil used as a vapor barrier, applied from the inside, contributes to the improvement of thermal insulation of the walls and reduces the risks of condensation.

Innovative pricing mechanisms should motivate heat suppliers and consumers to move toward more sustainable energy systems and introduce low-temperature district heating systems and sector coupling in smart energy systems. Therefore, district heating regulation regimes should also be changed to stimulate transformations in the energy sector.
