Proper assessment of geometric features of a thermoelectric generator is important to design devices with improved performance features such as high efficiency and output power. In the present study, three the-state-of-the-art multi-objective evolutionary algorithms, namely, NSGA-II...

In this study, gas and steam bottoming cycles, driven by the exhaust gas of Gas turbine cycle, are analyzed thermodynamically. The waste heat of the Gas turbine topping cycle (GT) exhaust gas is used partially to heat the air in the air bottoming cycle and partially to generate steam by passing...

This study presents a theoretical and experimental analysis of the thermal performance of a solar water heater prototype with an internal exchanger using thermosiphon system. The results focus mainly on the levels of the heat fluxes temperatures recorded, mass flow rate and efficiency of...

A transient one-dimensional model was developed for studying the thermal performance of earth-to-air heat exchangers (EAHE) for summer cooling under the Algerian Sahara. The effect of extremities was also taken into account. The model validation against both theoretical and experimental data of...

An experimental system for heat recovery from low-temperature flue gas based on Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) was constructed. In the system, R123 was selected as working fluid, a scroll expander was used to produce work, and fin tubes heat exchanger was designed as evaporator. Low-temperature...
