Lifetime prediction
The overall objective:Prediction of service life of a district heating system is a challenge due to a wide range of degradation mechanisms in polymer-based materials, metals and concrete including thermal, chemical and mechanical degradation and also combined effects. The overall goal of ST C is to elaborate appropriate mathematical models that can allow extrapolation of short-time data to predict long-term performance of DHPs.
Work iteams are:
C.1: Lifetime prediction of pre-insulated bonded DH pipes
C2: Lifetime prediction of new polymer-based media pipes and insulation materials
C.3:Lifetime prediction of metal and concrete pipes
