Identification of typical district configurations: A two-step global sensitivity analysis framework
François Maréchal, Jonas Schnidrig, Cédric Terrier
The recent geopolitical conflicts in Europe highlighted the sensibility of the current energy system to the volatility of energy carrier prices. In the prospect of defining robust energy system configurations to ensure energy supply stability, it is necess ...
2023A physics-based model for wind turbine wake expansion in the atmospheric boundary layer
Fernando Porté Agel, Dara Vahidi
Analytical wind turbine wake models are widely used to predict the wake velocity deficit. In these models, the wake growth rate is a key parameter specified mainly with empirical formulations. In this study, a new physics-based model is proposed and valida ...
2022Next generation cogeneration system for industry - Combined heat and fuel plant using biomass resources
François Maréchal, Adriano Viana Ensinas, Ayse Dilan Celebi
The requirement for sustainable development has prompted the researchers to explore solutions for better utilization of renewable energy resources in the future. Biomass is a promising resource and it can be converted to multiple products and services incl ...
2019Syngas production with thermo-chemically recuperated gas expansion systems: An exergy analysis and energy integration study
In spite of the large degree of energy integration in the modern syngas production units, the highly endothermic reactions of steam methane reforming and the combined steam and power generation still require a huge amount of energy that is typically suppli ...
2019Potential of hydrothermal black liquor gasification integrated in pulp production plant
François Maréchal, Maziar Kermani, Julia Granacher, Ayse Dilan Celebi
Greenhouse gas emission mitigation is one of the main motivations for increasing the use of biomass in providing environmentally friendly value-added products. The pulp and paper industry is a promising sector for the integration of biorefinery pathways. A ...
Silesian University of Technology2019High temperature heat pump using HFO and HCFO refrigerants – system design and experimental results
High temperature heat pumps (HTHP) with heat sink temperatures of 100 to 160 °C will increasingly become commercialized in the coming years, especially for industrial drying, sterilization and evaporation processes. In particular, the HFO R1336mzz(Z) and t ...
2019Biomass logistics and environmental impact modelling for sugar-ethanol production
The goal of this paper is to evaluate the supply of sugarcane to mills and also the supply of green harvesting residues to second-generation ethanol plants under three different strategies: chopping, baling and integral harvesting. A dynamic model was deve ...

Universidade de Minho2018Theoretical analysis of steam generation methods - Energy, CO 2 emission, and cost analysis
A theoretical case study on steam generation has been performed. Different methods of producing steam by vapour compression, direct electrical heating, gas heating, heat pumping, use of waste heat, and a mixture thereof, were theoretically analysed. The fi ...
Elsevier2017Optimal use of biomass in large-scale energy systems: insights for energy policy
François Maréchal, Stefano Moret, Emanuela Peduzzi, Victor Codina Gironès, Marco Nasato
Biomass chemical conversion processes allow the production of solid, liquid and gaseous biofuels, which can substitute almost any kind of fossil fuel and the associated greenhouse gas emissions. Despite this potential, high investment costs and conversion ...
