Exergetic and economic comparison of ORC and Kalina cycle for low temperature enhanced geothermal system in Brazil

TL;DR: In this paper, the first and second law of thermodynamic properties of two different technologies (ORC and Kalina cycle) for power production through an enhanced geothermal system (EGS) were analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liquid Thermo-Responsive Smart Window Derived from Hydrogel

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a high thermal energy storage thermo-responsive smart window (HTEST smart window) by trapping the hydrogel-derived liquid within glasses, which showed promising energy-saving performance in summer daytime.
Journal ArticleDOI

Criteria for Cross-Plane Dominated Thermal Transport in Multilayer Thin Film Systems During Modulated Laser Heating

TL;DR: In this article, the assumption of one-dimensional heating on, A and G, determination in nanostructures using a pump-probe transient thermoreflectance technique is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimum thermal design of humidification dehumidification desalination systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the main design and performance parameters are investigated for two HDH cycles, namely, water-heated and air-heat cycles, and the design details of both the humidifier and dehumidifier are presented to determine their sizes under different design conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimal thermal and thermodynamic performance of a solar parabolic trough receiver with different nanofluids and at different concentration ratios

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimum thermal and thermodynamic operating conditions of a parabolic trough solar energy system working with copper-therminol®VP-1, silver-Therminol®,VP- 1, and Al2O3-Thermol® VP-1 nanofluids as heat transfer fluids were investigated.
