A Techno-Economic study for heating poultry houses using renewable energy by ElZanaty, Heidi

“…The calculation is performed twice, once using the Egyptian local fuel price, where the SHS is found to be economically feasible using certain designs only.The other calculation is performed using the international minimum benchmark price of diesel fuel, where the NPV of all designs is found to be significantly higher and thus, the use of SHS is more appealing at this fuel price.Other parameters such as the infiltration rate of the building and the usage of latent heat storage technique are examined to explore their effect on the performance of the SHS. …”
