Densification of the biomass residues as an efficient method to produce a renewable and CO2 neutral energy resource has been in consideration in recent years. However, according to a recent boost in the European wood pellet demand, the importance of R&D studies for substitution and enhancement...

In this study, a new application of a Tesla turbine (TT) is presented in which a TT is introduced as a promising solution to enhance the energy efficiency of refrigeration cycles. For this special purpose, a TT is represented as a regenerative system that minimizes the wasted energy without...

The energy consumption of conventional HVAC systems in cold climates is strongly influenced by the ventilation thermal loads required to keep adequate levels of indoor air quality. The improvement of the energy efficiency of such systems may be achieved using heat recovery systems consisting of...

Timor-Leste is a very young and developing nation state. Endemic infectious disease and weakened health security coupled with its growing and inclusive public institutions keep Timor-Leste fragile and in transition on the spectrum of state stability. The objective here is to systematically...
