Design and assessment of an evaporating water-cooled methanation reactor for a SOE-based power-to-methane system

The transition towards clean renewable energy sources, where wind and solar are prone to variation, requires adequate energy storage. Power-to-methane (PtM) systems can be part of the solution. Specifically, solid-oxide-electrolyser (SOE) based PtM systems ...

Convective regimes induced by surface cooling and topography in stratified waterbodies

Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Tomy Doda, Cintia Luz Ramon Casanas

Gravitational convection plays a significant role in the ventilation, heat and mass distribution of aquatic systems. This study investigates thermally driven convection resulting from heat loss at the air-water interface during cooling periods in freshwate ...

Seasonality of density currents induced by differential cooling

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Tomy Doda

When lakes experience surface cooling, the shallow littoral region cools faster than the deep pelagic waters. The lateral density gradient resulting from this differential cooling can trigger a cold downslope density current that intrudes at the base of th ...

Two novel cogeneration charging stations for electric vehicles: Energy, exergy, economic, environment, and dynamic characterizations

Jan Van Herle, Hossein Pourrahmani, Chengzhang Xu

This paper suggests two novel designs for the electric vehicle charging stations using LiMn2O4 Lithium-ion battery and based on a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) and absorption refrigeration cycle (ARC) technologies to provide electricity and cooling, respect ...

EFFICIENT COOLING SYSTEM FOR SUPERCONDUCTING GANTRY MAGNET

Gybran Zoghlami

Superconductors are used in high-energy physics to generate large magnetic fields. The flowing current is progressively increased to its nominal value to achieve the target magnetic field. During the ramp-up progress, the varying magnetic field induces Edd ...

Competition between cooling and shortwave radiation in shaping near-surface convection in pelagic waters of Lake Geneva

Hugo Cruz

When lake surface waters above the temperature of maximum density 4◦C cools, the verysurface fluid parcels become denser than their neighbours below. The latter process leads to a gravitationally unstable density distribution which may trigger ‘free convec ...

Development of overturning circulation in sloping waterbodies due to surface cooling

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Tomy Doda, Cintia Luz Ramon Casanas

Cooling the surface of freshwater bodies, whose temperatures are above the temperature of maximum density, can generate differential cooling between shallow and deep regions. When surface cooling occurs over a long enough period, the thermally induced cros ...
