Abstract: This study establishes forward closed-form and inverse analyses of wet fins of various profiles involving all modes of heat transfer. Existing limitations in the literature are addressed here by choosing the appropriate ...

Abstract: In this paper, a new small-scale lithium bromide (LiBr)-water absorption system consisting water-cooled absorber and air-cooled condenser is experimentally studied. For compactness, the heat exchangers for evaporator, ...

Abstract: This paper describes an experimental study on a combined assembly of a solar pond and two-phase thermosyphon toward thermoelectric power generation under actual weather conditions and proposes its mandatory association ...

Abstract: Air conditioning in composite weather is relatively more challenging and also carries importance as it resembles conditions of hot-dry, cold, and warm-humid climates. Bifurcation of cooling and ventilation tasks happens ...

Abstract: The present work establishes an improved experimentally validated analysis to predict performance and exergy-related parameters of a mechanical draft cooling tower involving wooden splash fills. Unlike earlier studies, ...

Abstract: A new three-zone heat extraction system and its analytical model for maximizing the thermal power output of salt gradient solar ponds against a given volume is proposed. The present study considers internal heat exchangers ...

Abstract: A building energy simulation study is carried out to analyze the performance of a triple-hybrid single-effect vapor absorption cooling system (VACS) operated by solar, natural gas, and auxiliary electricity-based cogeneration. ...

Abstract: In air-conditioning, strategy of decoupling cooling and ventilation tasks has stimulated considerable interest in radiant cooling systems with dedicated outdoor air system (DOAS). In view of this, current paper presents a ...

Abstract: A new three-zone heat extraction system and its analytical model for maximizing the thermal power output of salt gradient solar ponds against a given volume is proposed. The present study considers internal heat exchangers ...

Abstract: In this paper, the concept of heat extraction from the gradient zone (GZ) in solar ponds has been analyzed in a more realistic manner to overcome the drawbacks of previously conducted studies. For this purpose, a net heat ...
