Abstract: Energy conservation and economic potential of large capacity (∼MW th ) solar-assisted water-to-water heat pumps (SAHP) is evaluated for year round low temperature (<100° C) industrial ...

Abstract: Spray canals are alternatives to cooling ponds and towers for steam-electric power plants. The literature of thermal modeling is reviewed. A rational analysis supported by field experiments at ...

Abstract: A thermodynamic model is developed to analyze the thermal performance of two-phase solar collectors. The well-known equilibrium homogeneous theory is used to model the two-phase flow in the solar ...

Abstract: The two-dimensional, steady, combined forced and natural convection in a vertical channel is investigated for the laminar regime. To simulate the Trombe wall channel geometry properly, horizontal ...
