Global energy demand and environmental concerns are the driving force for use of alternative, sustainable, and clean energy sources. Solar energy is the inexhaustible and CO2-emission-free energy source worldwide. The Sun provides 1.4×105TW power as received on the surface of the Earth and...

The energy security concern has been established as an alarming issue in context of petro diplomacy now-a-days. Global warming with rapid changes in climate, increase in price and depletion in reserve of fossil fuel are leading scientists to work toward alternative fuel. Biodiesel could be an...

Nanofluid is one of the novel inventions of science. Nanofluid can be used for energy savings by increasing the heat transfer performance of the heat recovery systems, which are generally struggling to overcome the present challenging issues such as global warming, greenhouse effect, climate...

Usage of thermal energy storage (TES) for storing energy is a favourable technology which is used in current years. The normal TES in building applications is water which is used in the heating system. Recently, PCM technology improvement helps to use different types of PCMs for increasing...

As the air conditioning system is one of the largest contributors to electrical peak demand, the role of the cold thermal energy storage (CTES) system has become more significant in the past decade. The present paper has reviewed the studies conducted on the energy and exergy analysis of CTES...
