A general superstructure for the optimal synthesis and design of power and inverse Rankine cycles, 27th European Symposium on Computer Aided Process Engineering

François Maréchal, Alberto Mian, Emanuele Martelli

This work presents a very general superstructure capable of reproducing any configuration of Rankine cycles, both power cycles (steam cycles we well as Organic Rankine Cycles) and inverse cycles (refrigeration cycles or heat pumps), as well as heat/steam d ...

High performance carbon-based printed perovskite solar cells with humidity assisted thermal treatment

Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Syed Ghufran Hashmi

We report humidity assisted thermal exposure (HTE) as a post-treatment method for carbon based printed perovskite solar cells (CPSCs). The method does not only improve the interfaces of different layers of the printed stack, but also provides a pathway to ...

Dissipative soliton protocols in semiconductor microcavities at finite temperatures

Hugo Pierre Alexandre Flayac

We consider exciton polaritons in a semiconductor microcavity with a saturable absorber in the growth direction of the heterostructure. This feature promotes additional nonlinear losses of the system with the emergence of bistability of the condensate part ...

Cyclic test data of six unreinforced masonry walls with different boundary conditions

Katrin Beyer, Sarah Petry

Previous test data on unreinforced masonry walls focused on the global response of the wall. A new data set (Petry and Beyer 2014a; D01:10.5281/zenodo.8443) on six wall tests, which is publicly available, allows for linking global to local deformations of ...

The potential of alternative biomass based gas turbine cycles in Latin America

The environmental and geopolitical concerns encourage governments towards the utilization of renewable energy sources (RES). Finding CO2 zero/near-zero power production techniques is imperative. Biomass, a carbon neutral fuel, can be used in Joule-Bryton p ...

Degradation mechanism of slag blended mortars immersed in sodium sulfate solution

Karen Scrivener, Wei Sun, Cheng Yu

Additions of slag are usually considered to give cementitious materials which perform well in sulfate bearing environments. This paper compares the deterioration of slag cement blends to those of plain Portland cement and demonstrates that this occurs more ...

Thermo-mechanical Reliability of SOFC Stacks During Combined Long-term Operation and Thermal Cycling

Jan Van Herle, Zacharie Wuillemin, Arata Nakajo, Fabio Greco

Thermo-mechanical issues in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) must be understood and overcome to meet the reliability standards for market implementation. This study presents a thermo-mechanical model of an SOFC-stack SRU. The analysis starts with the simulati ...
