Several years ago it has been demonstrated experimentally and verified theoretically that Vuilleumier heat pump systems (a combination of a Stirling engine with a Stirling heat pump) can be supercharged periodically by means of an attached resonance tube, ...
Competition in liberalized energy markets and increasing environmental concerns call for industrial power generation that is both cost effective and environmentally friendly. This is true for both the operation of existing as well as the development of new ...

The technology gap between liquid and gaseous fuels presents an obstacle in realising the environmental and performance potential of CNG vehicles. Therefore a gaseous fuel injector has been developed to cope with the considerable larger volume flow rated r ...
In pinch analysis, the tools and methods specifically developed for the modeling, the debottlenecking and the rescheduling of batch processes have been rewieved (time slice model, cascade analysis, overal plant bottleneck, time event model, batch cascade c ...
As part of a comprehensive study on factors affecting flow boiling in horizontal tubes, local boiling heat transfer coefficients were measured for R- 134a evaporating inside the same 12.00 mm bore, plain tube for horizontal flow, vertical upflow and vertic ...

The substitution of old refrigerants in refrigeration systems, heat pumps and organic Rankine cycles for heat recovery, request a good knowledge of heat transfer properties of substitute fluids. The test measurmements in LENI test facility (concentric tube ...
A very high accuracy, straight vibrating tube type of density flow meter has been used online to measure oil concentraiton of flowing R-134a/oil mixtures. The calibrations covered oil concentrations from 0-6 wt.% oil over the temperature range from -9.4 to ...
Local flow boiling heat transfer coefficients were measured for R-134a and R- 123 evaporating inside a microfin tube for horizontal flow and vertical upflow over a wide range of mass velocities, vapor qualities and heat flux. The objective was to study the ...
