Abstract: The combination of fuel cells with conventional mechanical power generation technologies (heat engines) promotes effective transformation of the chemical energy of fuels into electrical work. The ...

Abstract: Energy and exergy assessments are reported of integrated power generation using solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) with internal reforming and a gas turbine cycle. The gas turbine inlet temperature ...

Abstract: The thermodynamic performance of an encapsulated ice thermal energy storage (ITES) system for cooling capacity is assessed using exergy and energy analyses. A full cycle, with charging, storing, ...

Abstract: In this paper, energy and exergy characteristics of wind energy are investigated. The effects of wind speed and air temperature and pressure at the inlet of a wind turbine on windchill ...

Abstract: The entropy generation is investigated numerically in axisymmetric, steady-state, and incompressible laminar flow in a rotating single free disk. The finite-volume method is used for solving the ...
