Abstract:In this work, a proof of concept design for a poultry meat farm is studied. The design aims to be climate-neutral and energy-flexible by applying different technologies such as PV panels, PVT panels, BEO field, and high and low-temperature heat pumps. In order to size these systems, the farm's required heating, cooling power and (de)humidification rate has to be estimated, which is the focus of the current paper. For this purpose, a model was created in the Python environment. Based on the building's current d… Show more
