Solar Energy Applications in Houses
Jankůj, Tomáš ; Špiláček, Michal (referee) ; Poláčik, Ján (advisor)
This thesis is focused on photovoltaics and photothermics. Their source is solar radiation that belongs to the category of renewable sources. At present, great emphasis is placed on ecology and economics. For this reason, renewable sources are coming to the foreground. In the first part of the bachelor thesis, types of photovoltaic cells, technology and their efficiency are presented. Furthermore, the principle and construction of photovoltaic and photothermal systems are described. The second part describes the design of the energy solution of a family house using solar energy.

Optimization of Flat House Heating
Fodor, Ján ; Baláš, Marek (referee) ; Lisý, Martin (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the supply of heat in a particular block of flats in Brno. It deals with supply for heating and for hot water heating. The introduction gives information about the considerated building and also generally, but especially with regard to the current situation with consumption and heat supply. Subsequently, the thesis describes the individual possibilities of obtaining heat. There are mentioned classical heat sources as gas boilers, but also less commonly used as co-generating units or solar collectors. Furthermore, the work is calculating from the technical and economic point of view for heating options chosen by the investor. Finally, the work compares the options from viewpoint of benefits, budgets and returns of possible investments.

Optimalization of the water heating system
Lebeda, Ladislav ; Franek, Lešek (referee) ; Macho, Tomáš (advisor)
This thesis is aimed to enable energy optimization of combined water heating system. The first part deals with the assessment of the general view of thermal solar systems with autonomic power from photovoltaics and description of a particular solar system for energy optimization. Then there is chosen the control system conception based on single-board computer Raspberry Pi, which is complemented by auxiliary measuring and controlling circuit. In the following chapters is described design and implementation of software for control system including web interface. The remote monitoring and controlling of solar heating system is the main purpose of web interface.

The long-term accumulation of solar collectors and the subsequent use of the heat
Litera, Jiří ; Fiedler, Jan (referee) ; Kracík, Petr (advisor)
The aim of the thesis is the design and evaluation of the long-term accumulation of solar collectors and the subsequent use of the heat. The basic principles of the use of solar energy are introduced in the theoretical part as well as the list of available heat pumps, solar collectors moreover options for the accumulation of heat are evaluated. In the practical part the system of a long-term heat accumulation for a partially restored family house is designed, where accumulation into water or gravel are the two presented options. Solar energy is collected by solar collectors and accumulated in the long term storage. The system involves water to water or ground to water heat pump that reduces the temperature of the reservoir in order to increase the temperature difference of the system. Both options require a large volume of heat collecting, including large surface of solar collectors. Because of the high cost and spatial requirements the system shows to be hardly realistic in practice. For this reason an alternative solution of a family house heating system more suitable from the economic point of view is described. As a result it was proved that system of the long-term accumulation is not an appropriate solution for heating system of family houses and it is used in places with enough space for the accumulation such as high capacity trays or flooded mines. For existing family houses (partly insulated and with a heat source such as natural gas) the usage of the heat pump eventually supported by solar collectors appears as the most sensible solution. Such solution shows a return of investment from 14 to 25 years, and contributes to sustainable development and to reduction of non-renewable primary energy.

Heat pumps for heating and hot service water preparation
Valášek, Martin ; Hrnčířová, Michaela (referee) ; Kracík, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis is aimed to describe heating and water warming in the detached houses by basic technical devices and there are suggested various types of heat pumps for a particular object. These heat pumps are compared technically and economically. In the beginning of the thesis there is a summary of the possible ways of the house heating and water warming systems, such as heating by electric power, by gas, by solid fuel or the centrally distributed heating. Then the thesis concentrates on heat pumps. There are described various types of heat pumps, also their advantages and disadvantages. There were chosen four main types of heat pumps – air/water, air/air, water/water and earth/water – and with each type there’s constructed a plan for a low-energy house heating. This house is located in Vyškov and there’s thermal loss of 6 kWh and water-warming of a capacity of 260 l per day. At last there were used economical calculations, which shown, that the water/water heat pump has the shortest return rate in comparison with a gas-using heating system – 5 years. Considering the lifespan of the heat pumps – 10-20 years – all the heat pumps are profitable except for the air/air heat pump. The investment in this heat pump doesn’t return.

Solar heating tap water
Kracík, Petr ; Baláš, Marek (referee) ; Fiedler, Jan (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the heating of hot service water by means of solar energy through solar collectors. At the beginning the author describes the most frequent methods for heating of service water in Czech houses with the help of electrical energy, fossil fuel, gas and central heat supply, including the input expenses for buying equipment. The author describes a solar system and his basic elements and suggests two variants with supplement heating by means of electrical energy, which compares with electrical heating of service water. The overall thesis is conceived as a review of possibilities of heating hot service water in households with economical budget at the end of the work.
