The present invention concerns a permeable-magnetocaloric material for a magnetic refrigerator, a heat pump or a power generator comprising at least a magnet assembly for the generation of a magnetic field, a body disposed at least partially in said magnet ...
This paper presents a study of a residential (about 20kW) ORC-ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) thermally driven heat pump. The system works with three different temperature levels similar to absorption heat pumps. The proposed concept is a hermetic system using ...
The invention concerns a magnetocaloric device, especially a magnetic refrigerator, a heat pump or a magnetic power conversion machine comprising at least a permanent magnet assembly (4, 11) for generating magnetic flux, a rotating ring (2) coaxially dispo ...
A new scalable reactor was developed by applying a novel mixing principle that allows the large-scale cultivation of mammalian cells simply with surface aeration using air owing to increased liquid–gas transfer compared to standard stirred-tank bioreactors ...
During the early stages of research and development chemical industry needs flexible and versatile tools to investigate chemical reaction systems. An important part of the optimisation of a process considering economic factors, risk analysis and environmen ...
Using a differential transmission pump-probe experiment in heterodyne detection, the ultrafast gain and refractive-index dynamics of the ground-state transition in InAs/GaAs quantum-dot amplifiers emitting near 1.3 mu m at working condition, that is at roo ...
Rankine cycles for low to medium power and low temperature heat using water as working fluid, were almost written off. The main arguments speaking against them are reviewed in this paper and the conceptual design of the equipment entirely revisited. An adv ...
The paper describes two 3.9 MWth ammonia heat pumps of a District Heating plant which also includes two gas turbine cogeneration units. After nine years of reliable operation the heat pumps still show excellent coefficients of performance of above 4.1. Thi ...
