... of 70 mm. The computer-aided design (CAD) model is developed by keeping in mind the ease of manufacturing, maintenance, bearing replacements, and lubrication. After fabrication, the engine is tested by heating the hot cylinder with air as a working fluid. The engine delivered peak power of 155 watts...

... fuel–based industries in the meantime. This way, the industries can be more efficient by utilizing waste heat, which accounts for 50% of the total energy generated now. This review paper outlines the role of solar energy in the generation of power and cooling systems that are capable of utilizing low...

...Candeniz Seckin A Kalina cycle is coupled to an ejector refrigeration cycle to generate power and refrigeration outputs, simultaneously. Ejector refrigeration cycle is driven by the heat which is extracted from a high-temperature/pressure stream of Kalina cycle working fluid since the energy...

Stefanakos Improving the efficiency of thermodynamic cycles plays a fundamental role in reducing the cost of solar power plants. These plants work normally with Rankine...

...ChoonJae Ryu; David R. Tiffany; John F. Crittenden; William E. Lear; S. A. Sherif The power, water extraction, and refrigeration (PoWER) engine has been investigated for several years as a distributed energy (DE) system among other applications for civilian or military use. Previous literature...

...A. Khaliq; R. Kumar; I. Dincer In this paper, a novel industrial waste heat recovery based cogeneration is proposed for the combined production of power and refrigeration. The system is an integration of Rankine power cycle and absorption refrigeration cycle. A thermodynamic analysis through energy...

...Lubomir A. Ribarov; David S. Liscinsky Cooling, heating, and power (CHP) energy systems provide higher fuel efficiency than conventional systems, resulting in reduced fuel consumption, reduced emissions, and other environmental benefits. Until recently the focus of CHP system development has been...

...M. Burak Gunes; Michael W. Ellis Residential combined heat and power (CHP) systems using fuel cell technology can provide both electricity and heat and can substantially reduce the energy and environmental impact associated with residential applications. The energy, environmental, and economic...
