This project includes a potential study on heat extraction in the river Dyle for heating the buildings on the Redingsite in Leuven. The aim of this study is to determine the impact on the river Dyle after local heat extraction. In this way, the average temperature decrease of this river as a result of extracting the monthly heat demand of the Redingensite can be determined. This study investigates whether the monthly heat demand for aquathermal heating on the Redinge site can be satisfied by heat from the Dijle River without this river experiencing a drop of e.g. 3°C or more. CORE collects the necessary (meteorological) data about the Dyle and then runs simulations to calculate the impact on the river. These simulations are based on a river model that CORE developed last year.
