Journal ArticleDOI
Energy and economic analysis of geothermal–solar trigeneration systems: A case study for a hotel building in Ischia
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the design, simulation and optimisation of a small trigeneration plant supplied by geothermal and solar energies, where different technologies are implemented in a dynamic simulation model purposely developed for research scope.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of a 50 kW organic Rankine cycle system
TL;DR: In this article, a dimensionless "figure of merit" combining the Jakob number, condensing temperature, and evaporation temperature is proposed for quantitatively screening working fluid as far as thermal efficiency is concerned.
Journal ArticleDOI
A cavity-receiver containing a tubular absorber for high-temperature thermochemical processing using concentrated solar energy
TL;DR: In this article, a cylindrical cavity-receiver containing a tubular ceramic absorber is considered for performing thermochemical processes using concentrated solar radiation as the energy source of high-temperature process heat.

Analysis of vehicle exhaust waste heat recovery potential using a Rankine cycle
TL;DR: In this article, both a RC thermodynamic model and a heat exchanger model have been developed to evaluate the vehicle exhaust WHR (waste heat recovery) potential using a RC (Rankine cycle ).
