aluminum materials make up between 50% and 70% of the embodied energy. Solar PV technologies have exponentially increasing …

The aluminum energy conversion processes have been characterized to be carbon-free and sustainable. However, their … applications are restrained by aluminum production capacity as aluminum is never found as a free metal on the earth. This study … gives an assessment of typical aluminum-based energy processes in terms of overall energy efficiency and cost. Moreover …

operating conditions on the performance of a PEMFC with a dead-ended anode, a mathematical model is developed to estimate the … current density on nitrogen crossover is coupled in the model. Parameters in the model are calibrated according to …. Simulation results by this calibrated model agree well with experimental data. The transient of hydrogen concentration in the …

The UK government heat strategy is partially based on decarbonisation pathways from the UK MARKAL energy system model …. We present a completely revised model with improved estimations of future heat demands and a consistent representation of … all heat generation technologies. This model represents all heat delivery infrastructure for the first time and uses …

subjected to heat losses during charging are presented. A model for simulating the thermal profile in the storage is developed …. Simulated results using the model are found to be in reasonably good agreement with experimental results. The thermal gradients … to drop as thermal de-stratification in the storage tank starts. Parametric results using the model are also presented …

A mathematical model of a laboratory-scale plant for slaughterhouse effluents biodigestion is proposed. The model … adjust the model parameters with a genetic algorithm. These parameters are fitted in a two steps algorithm. The first one … methane obtained from the simulation of the model with the optimized parameters are very close to those directly obtained from …

derived gas are compared with simulation results using a multizone homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine model … gaseous constituents of producer gas. The multizone model was originally developed as a 32 bit serial application for use with … primary reference fuels (PRFs). However, for the purpose of this study, the model has been parallelized using Message Passing …

The calibration and comparison to experimental data of a parallel computing multi-zone combustion model for simulating … negative valve overlap (NVO) technology is described. The model is calibrated using one experimentally characterized operating … point and by taking into account the major features of NVO. The model simulations at other four operating points closely …
