Travelling-wave thermoacoustic electricity generator using an ultra-compliant alternator for utilization of low-grade thermal energy
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a traveling-wave thermoacoustic electricity generator, which employs a looped-tube travelling-wave engine to convert thermal energy into acoustic power, an ultra-compliant alternator within the engine loop to extract and convert the engine acoustic power to electricity, and an acoustic stub matching technique to match the alternator to the engine.

Selection of thermal management system for modular battery packs of electric vehicles: A review of existing and emerging technologies
TL;DR: It is found that only a hybrid system can meet technical requirements imposed by modular design and based on the current state, phase change materials and thermoelectric devices are more likely to be part of this next generation thermal management system.

The optimal stack spacing for thermoacoustic refrigeration
TL;DR: A quantitative experimental investigation into the effect of the pore dimensions on the performance of thermoacoustic devices is reported and it is concluded that a plate spacing in the stack of about three times the penetration depth should be optimal for thermoACoustic refrigeration.
