Abstract: A system for calculating total lifecycle costs for a building energy management system includes lifecycle costs for a grid-scale battery system. The system includes a battery lifecycle optimizer configured to provide an optimal battery configuration for a building and a building energy system controller. The building energy system controller receives optimum battery configuration information, information relating to the heat ventilation air conditioning system of the building, intrinsic thermodynamic properties of the building, energy tariff schedules and weather forecast data to forecast a monthly peak demand profile. A simulation is run using a battery model, system model along with tariff and weather information to produce an hourly building energy management plan for minimizing overall energy costs with consideration of system lifecycle costs.

Abstract: A luminous display substrate includes a base substrate, a light reflective and electrically conductive film layer on the base substrate, and a light-transmittance metal film layer on a side of the light reflective and electrically conductive film layer away from the base substrate. A side of the light reflective and electrically conductive film layer adjacent to the light-transmittance metal film layer is recessed towards the base substrate to form a curved surface.

Abstract: An attaching apparatus for chip-on-films includes: a base; a rotary table; a first driving device configured to drive the rotary table to rotate around the axis of the rotary table; a TCP side adhesive-attaching mechanism configured to attach a conductive film onto a chip-on-film on a carrier located in the TCP adhesive-attaching region; a PCB side adhesive-attaching mechanism configured to attach a conductive film onto a chip-on-film on a carrier located in the PCB adhesive-attaching region; and a pre-pressing mechanism configured to pre-press conductive films attached on a chip-on-film on a carrier located in the pre-pressing region. The rotary table is in a first operating position, a second operating position, a third operating position and a fourth operating position successively during a rotation around its axis. When the rotary table is in any one of the operating positions, there is always one carrier in each region of the base.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method of making a micro-container. The method comprises the step of evaporating a swelling agent solution absorbed in a polymer micro-particle to form an inner void therein. The evaporating step is undertaken under conditions to form a conduit extending through the shell wall of said micro-particle and into the inner void.
