Field measurements on lower radiator temperatures in existing buildings : manuscript for Energy and Buildings
The heating power of a building is linked to the supply and return temperature of the radiator. A lower supply temperature enables more transition pathways towards sustainable heating with reduced carbon emissions. However, the minimum supply temperature that guarantees thermal comfort during design weather conditions is still unknown. In this… -

Deltares mission-driven research : activity plan 2023
This 2023 Activity Plan sketches the outline of the mission-driven strategic research that Deltares will conduct in 2023 with the SITO institute subsidy for applied research institutes. To focus our research activities, we have grouped the missions and agendas into five moonshots, providing the direction for our fifteen mission-driven programmes… -

Eindevaluatie pilot Langsdammen in de Waal : hydromorphological data and observations
In the river Waal, longitudinal training walls (LTW) have been built in 2015 near Tiel as a pilot to replace the groynes. Combined with the realisation, also a measurement campaign of multiple years was started to study the effects of the LTW on water levels, flow velocities and bed level. In this report these measurements have been processed and… -

Eindevaluatie pilot Langsdammen in de Waal : Delft3D simulations
This report is part of the project “Final Evaluation Pilot Longitudinal Training Walls” (Work Package 1, WP1). It concerns numerical simulations with a state-of-the-art Delft3D-model covering the Waal between Nijmegen and Zaltbommel. The impact of the Longitudinal Training Walls (LTW’s) on the river (water levels, flow velocities, morphology, etc… -

Eindevaluatie pilot Langsdammen in de Waal : morphology and maintenance
River interventions such as the replacement of groynes by longitudinal training walls have morphological effects on different scales. Effects on the smallest scales occur almost immediately whereas effects on the largest scales manifest themselves only after decades. As discharges vary, morphological effects keep fluctuating even in the long term… -

Techniques for monitoring of benthic primary production : 21 december 2021
This document presents a state-of-the-art review of methods to quantify benthic primary production in estuaries. The advantages and disadvantages of each method are discussed, including their assumptions and uncertainties in measurements. The review includes field and remote sensing measurement techniques. The review is intended to select a… -

Development of sixth generation model schematisation 3D D-Water Quality Veerse Meer : model set-up and calibration
Recent water quality problems in the Veerse Meer have renewed efforts to develop modelling tools for the lake. In the context of setting up the new sixth-generation models for Rijkswaterstaat, a 3D D-Water Quality model of the Veerse Meer including eutrophication parameters, dissolved oxygen, and related water quality processes has been developed… -

10-years evaluation of the Sand Motor : results of the Monitoring- and Evaluation Program (MEP) for the period 2011 to 2021
In 2011 the large-scale sand nourishment ‘The Sand Motor’ was constructed (21.5 million m3) with the aim of gaining experience with innovative nourishments that combine recreational, natural and coastal maintenance functions and strengthen the Delfland coast. Unique about the Sand Motor is that it can freely reshape over time as a result of… -

Installation of heating pipelines by shallow drilling : feasibility of the E-power method
The so called E-Power Pipe technique is a trenchless method which was developed for the installation of underground cables in sleeve pipes. This trenchless technique for shallow drilling and pipeline installation can be used for the installation of large diameters transport heating pipelines. Modification of the technique is necessary to enlarge… -

Detecting floating plastics using a high-frequency X-band radar : a feasibility study on unconventional monitoring techniques for the detection of plastics
Ship-based X-band radar was tested for the detection of floating plastics. Plastic items are likely to a have a different radar reflection than items of other materials with the same size above the water, since they have different dielectric constants. Three measurement campaigns were carried out in the Rhine-Meuse Delta, revealing its potential… -

Coherent assessment framework for eutrophication : model results Deltares
This report describes the results of the modelling work done by Deltares in the framework of the OSPAR Intersessional Correspondence Group on Ecosystem Modelling (ICG-EMO). In this group, an ensemble model approach was started in 2020, with the aim to simulate the effects of anthropogenic nutrient loads on nutrient and chlorophyll concentrations…
