Multi-objective optimization and exergoeconomic analysis of a continuous solar-driven system with PCM for power, cooling and freshwater production

Hossein Pourrahmani

In this article, three different modes of a novel integrated system would be evaluated by the application of high temperature Thermal Energy Storage (TES) to produce electricity, cooling, and freshwater. Freshwater is produced using the reverse osmosis (RO ...

Impact of large tip clearance ratios on the performance of a centrifugal compressor

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Markus Diehl

Ultra-compact and fast spinning turbomachinery is a key technology to increase performance of domestic heating applications and to address decentralization of power and heat as a consequence of the rise of renewable energy sources. Recently, a heat pump us ...

Mitigation of tip leakage induced phenomena in a low Reynolds number centrifugal compressor via blade loading distribution

Markus Diehl

Reduced-scale refrigeration compressors supported on gas-lubricated bearings have been identified as a key technology for domestic heat pump applications, in order to improve both the system efficiency and the reliability. Unfortunately, reduced-scale mach ...

Water-energy nexus approach to compare performance of evaporative and vapor-compression cooling systems

Dolaana Khovalyg, Amirreza Heidari, Nasim Soori

Evaporative cooling systems consume high water, but low electricity for their operation. On the other hand, vapor compression systems consume no water, but high electricity. Water and energy systems are interconnected at different levels. Therefore, water ...

Thin Gas Film Isothermal Condensation in Aerodynamic Bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Eliott Philippe Guenat

High-speed small-scale turbomachinery for waste heat recovery and vapor compression cycles is typically supported on gas-lubricated bearings operating close to the saturation conditions of the lubricant. Under particular conditions, the gas film might loca ...
