This is important to understand potential disruptions when implementing circular actions. Therefore, the assessment focuses on circular principles such as resource traceability and value created by implemented actions, and through resource flow and circular action indicators, the intrinsic circularity of system integration is quantified. The assessment showed the integration of both systems and the rooftop rainwater harvesting increased the Circular Water Flow and the Water Withdrawal Reduction up to 33.73 % and 22.88 %, respectively. Moreover, it demonstrates that the HPCE integration increased the Recovered Energy Contribution up to 19.98 %.

To achieve this, the original two-point boundary value problem is transformed into an equivalent single-point problem using the Shooting Method. The resulting system is then solved using the Fractional Adams Predictor–Corrector Method. To validate the proposed approach, two straight fins with temperature-dependent properties are considered. The results demonstrate that the proposed methodology is a promising strategy for solving both integer and fractional order problems. The change in the fractional order influences the model parameters and, consequently, the temperature profiles and fin efficiency. Furthermore, depending on the fractional order, the temperature profile may be distorted in relation to the integer-order model, and the heat transfer process may be faster (or slower) in fractional order models compared to those with an integer order.
