The corrosion problem of liquid lead-bismuth eutectic alloy (LBE) on structural materials is one of the key material technologies that restrict the development of LBE cooling reactors. In this paper, two different Cr-Al coatings were synthesized by electroplating and multi-arc ion plating (MAIP)...

High CO2 purity products can be obtained from oxy-combustion power plants through a CO2 CPU (compression and purification unit) based on phase separation method. To ensure that CPU (with double flash separators) can be operated under optimal conditions, this paper focuses on single variable...

Thermoeconomic models, which combine the concept of cost in the field of economics and the concept of exergy in the field of thermodynamics, provide a possibility of optimizing complex energy-generating systems to achieve a best balance between thermodynamic efficiency and economic cost...

In this paper, the primary energy ratio and economic benefit of five different heating systems are analysed. The results show that the gas-engine heat pump system has the advantages of high primary energy efficiency and favours environmental protection in contrast to the other four heating...
