Abstract: A new system to improve the present OTEC (ocean thermal energy conversion) power plant performance is here presented. This is a metal hydride energy system operating as a “temperature upgrading” ...

Abstract: In this paper thermodynamical and economic analyses of fossil-fuel-fired power plants, equipped with systems for CO2 recovery, are presented. The investigation has been developed with reference ...

Abstract: In this paper, the thermodynamic potentialities and limits of the H2∕O2 turbine cycles (afterward named only H2∕O2 cycles) are investigated. Starting from the conventional gas turbine and steam ...
