This paper presents the modeling and model validation for a modular two-phase heat exchanger that recovers energy in heavy-duty diesel engines. The model is developed for temperature and vapor quality prediction and for control design of the waste heat recovery system. In the studied waste heat...

The industrial waste heat parameters, like flow rate and temperature, usually fluctuate in a certain range due to the variation of upstream industrial process. However, the heat recovery systems are usually designed not under the fluctuation range but under a specific point, therefore, the most...

Thermoelectric devices can provide clean energy conversion and are environmentally friendly. However, few studies have been conducted to understand the dynamic characteristics of (thermoelectric generators) TEGs. The stability of output performance plays a very important role in TEG. Based on...

Power generation from low enthalpy geothermal resources using Organic Rankine Cycle systems is markedly influenced by the temperature level of the heat source and heat sink. During plant operation the actual temperature of the geofluid may be different from the value assumed in the design phase....
