AEE - Institute for Sustainable Technologies
was founded in1988 as a non-university
research institute. It is today
one of the leading institutions in the field of
renewable energy and resource efficiency.

open data & open science

7. AEE – INSTITUTE FOR SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIESwww.aee-intec.at Title | 24.10.2016
What for?
solar collectors

8. AEE – INSTITUTE FOR SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIESwww.aee-intec.at Title | 24.10.2016
What for?
large collector fields
…and many other engineering applications

9. AEE – INSTITUTE FOR SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIESwww.aee-intec.at Title | 24.10.2016
Who needs T-piece pressure losses?
hydraulic
analysis
CFD
very expensive
à not feasible for many
engineering tasks
Bernoulli models
need to model
small-scale effects
e.g. pressure losses of T-pieces

10. AEE – INSTITUTE FOR SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIESwww.aee-intec.at Title | 24.10.2016
Why did we measure T-pieces?
Reynolds

Data model
Original data
• need to be calibrated and filtered (25.000 data points)
• requires knowledge of the experimental setup and conduct
• are only available for discrete points, not easily generalizable
• are therefore not directly useful for calculations!
This is why we publish a full data model
• Best way to access the information hidden in the data
• Allows arbitrary queries à useful for calculation tools
• Straightforward to use, no need to bother with model details
• Format: Matlab toolbox = simple distribution, simple installation
• Other options available on request (Python, Java packages etc.)

Perspectives
Use of our data (model) in hydraulic calculation tools
• solar energy, collector fields
• collector design
• thermal networks / district heating etc.
• possibly any other flow situations where parallel flow occurs
Collaboration
• Information exchange with other institutes & companies (models,
components etc.)
• Creation of new R&D ideas and projects
• Reduced target audience, high success chance
