• Novel geothermal systems are proposed for combined cooling and power generation. Parametric multi-objective thermoeconomic optimization comparisons performed. System Conf. (a) has the best power/exergy efficiency (58%) specific cost (30 $/GJ). (b) highest cooling/thermal (43%) (67 The rates of optimised (a)-(c) 440, 560, 600 $/h a given heat source. Comparative parametric analyses three novel...

Thermal energy storage is a key enabling technology for the recovery and valorisation of industrial waste heat. Nevertheless, there wide gap between variety heat options investigated recurrent few types virtually implemented in industries. To take advantage wider spectrum solutions, structured procedure proposed this work selection material layout. The algorithm developed consists preliminary d...

in this paper, the effects of input temperature and compression ratio on the net output work and efficiency of the air standard cycles, i.e. atkinson cycle, diesel cycle and otto cycle are analyzed. we assumed that the compression and power processes are adiabatic and reversible and any convective, conductive and radiative heat transfer to cylinder wall during the heat rejection process may be ...

Many functional imaging studies match their data to a brain template from the Monteal Neurological Institute (MNI). It is common for such studies to report activation coordinates and estimated Brodmann areas (BAs) in terms of the 1988 atlas of Talairach and Tournoux. This can be problematic, as the brains in the Talairach atlas and MNI template differ significantly in shape and size. This poste...
