Hamed Chehrmonavari,Amir-Hasan Kakaee,Seyed Ehsan Hosseini,Umberto Desideri,George Tsatsaronis,Gus Floerchinger,Robert Braun,Amin Paykani +7 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors reviewed the published work on hybrid solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) and internal combustion engines (ICE) considering various configurations, and found that integrated SOFC-ICE systems are promising candidates over conventional engines and stand-alone SOFCs to be used in stationary power generation and heavy-duty applications (e.g., marine and locomotive propulsion systems).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Performance Evaluation of the IPRP Technology When Fueled With Biomass Residuals and Waste Feedstocks
TL;DR: In this paper, the IPRP concept was modelled through an homemade software, that utilizes thermodynamic relations, energy balances and data available in the literature for BW pyrolysis products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design of a combined power, heating and cooling system at sized and undersized configurations for a reference building: Technoeconomic and topological considerations in Iran and Italy
TL;DR: In this article, a cogeneration system is proposed in two operational modes, sized and under-sized, so that the effect of natural gas and electricity consumption costs on the system design can be achieved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water recovery from HAT cycle exhaust gas: a possible solution for reducing stack temperature problems
TL;DR: In this paper, an induced draft fan (IDFV) was used to increase the cycle efficiency of the humid air turbine (HAT) cycle, which is a gas turbine cycle with intercooled compression, an air-water mixing evaporator before the combustion chamber and a recovery system for the exhaust gases.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Integrated Micro-Turbine and Rotary-Kiln Pyrolysis System as a Waste to Energy Solution for a Small Town in Central Italy: Cost Positioning and Global Warming Assessment
TL;DR: In this paper, the economic feasibility and the global warming contribution of an innovative micro scale waste to energy system based on a microturbine fuelled by waste pyrolysis gas were evaluated.
