cogeneration system (150-kWe, 192-kWt). The combined cycle is composed of a reciprocating Internal Combustion Engine (ICE), which …

This paper deals with an innovative natural gas (NG) combined cycle cogeneration system (150-kWe, 192kWt). The system … bottoming cycle on the exhaust gases from the ICE. The expander technology chosen for the Rankine cycle prime mover is a …

This study investigated the effect of the built-in volume ratio of an expander on the performance of a dual … positive displacement expander to operate in both under- and over-expansion states. Therefore, analysis of the off …-design performance of the expander is very important. Furthermore, the volume and weight of the expander must be considered in its …

originally developed displacement-type expander and state-of-the-art commercial DC (direct current) micro-pump was tested. The … achieved isentropic efficiencies of the expander and pump were 4.55% and 30.0%, respectively. There is much scope for further …

A novel integration of chemisorption refrigeration cycle and a scroll expander was investigated for the cogeneration of … cogeneration test, the cooling temperature reached 5.4 °C as minimum, while the generated electric power achieved the maximum value …

this sector, using a mathematical formula that computes the lowest heat capacity as the cogeneration system starts to be … more payable than a non-cogeneration system. A thermo-economic analysis of both systems, cogeneration and non-cogeneration … cogeneration system and harmonization of heat production and disposable wood waste as fuel. The mathematical formula was applied to …

. Recently, many efforts have been done to substitute renewable alternative fuels to reduce dependency on fossil fuels. Biomass … palm solid residue (PSR) biomass such as empty fruit bunches (EFB), palm fiber, shell, trunks and fronds as byproducts …

This paper presents a methodology to simulate the combustion of fixed beds of biomass particles using computational … fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques. The models presented were used in the simulation of a domestic pellet boiler working under … concentration. The same procedure was then used to simulate the same domestic boiler working with different values of water …
