This paper briefly introduces the characteristics of Distributed Combined Cooling, Heating and Power (CCHP) System, and indicates that the off-design conditions are the root cause of the performance reduction of system. An active regulation method based on system performance improvement is...

This paper presents a theoretical framework for the energy and exergy evaluation of a basic as well as three modified Organic Rankine Cycles (ORCs). The modified ORCs considered incorporating turbine bleeding, regeneration and both of them. The results demonstrate that evaporator has major...

The paper aims at analysing the energy performance of an innovative multi-source energy system for residential small-scale combined heat and power (CHP) applications. The integrated system is based on an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) fuelled by biodiesel, a wind turbine, and a photovoltaic unit....

Thailand's textile industry is the traditional industrial sector which shows the continuous increase in energy consumption and Energy Intensity (EI) index, primarily on electrical and thermal energy. This paper aims to track the implementation of energy conservation measures through the textile...

Non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) was deployed in this paper for multi-objective thermo-economic optimization of biomass retrofit for an existing solar organic Rankine cycle (ORC) power plant. The existing plant consists of a field of linear Fresnel collectors (LFC), integrated...
