Assessment of Tesla Turbine Performance for Small Scale Rankine Combined Heat and Power Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For solar Rankine cycle combined heat and power systems for residential buildings and other small-scale applications (producing 1–10 kWe), a low manufacturing cost, robust, and durable expander ...
Genetic Algorithm and Deep Learning to Explore Parametric Trends in Nucleate Boiling Heat Transfer Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Exploring parametric effects in pool boiling is challenging because the dependence of the resulting surface heat flux is often nonlinear, and the mechanisms can interact in complex ways. Historically, parametric effects ...
Multiscale Modeling of Power Plant Performance Enhancement Utilizing Asynchronous Cooling With Thermal Energy Storage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study links a model of thermal energy storage (TES) performance to a subsystem model with heat exchangers that cool down the storage at night; this cool storage is used to precool the air flow for a power plant ...
