Abstract:
... Hydrogen is seen as the future energy that will help decarbonise the emissions of global energy use. Hydrogen-related technologies have recently attracted considerable attention due to their relatively low emissions and high energy yield. Even then, little attention was given to hydrogen's use in energy distribution networks. A renewable-based multi-energy system (RMES) considers power, cooling, h ...

Abstract:
... To address the uncertainty of renewable energy in unit commitment, an adjustable uncertainty set of renewable energy is introduced and unit commitment is scheduled to guarantee the safe operation of the power system in this set. However, the operational risk arises when renewable energy falls out of the adjustable uncertainty set and this risk should be evaluated to determine the adjustable uncert ...

Abstract:
... One of the main challenges in small holding dairy production systems is the commencement of cold-chain from the point of milk production. Such systems often rely on pooled milk in a supply chain, with the chilling operations being initiated once substantial quantities of milk (>500 L) are collected. Hence, there is a need to develop an energy efficient and passive thermal storage device for chilli ...

Abstract:
... Trichlorobenzene is a mixture of three isomers which are 1,2,3-trichlorobenzene, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene and 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene. Due to the boiling points of the three components are close to each other, the adoption of conventional distillation process requires a large amount of energy. To reduce the distillation energy consumption, heat integration technology and mechanical vapor recompressio ...

... Driven by the demand for accurate intrinsic kinetics for the prediction of the combustion rate of purely fired Zhundong coal (ZDC) in a slag tapping boiler, the surface activation function (SAF) and intrinsic kinetic parameters of two types of rapid-pyrolysis ZDC chars were revealed via the isothermal and nonisothermal thermogravimetric analysis methods. The isothermal kinetic results show that th ...

... The growing population and technological developments have led to irregular houses and especially industrial facilities in developing cities. Furthermore, due to social and economic factors and the increasing massive migrations, undeveloped rural projects make irregular settlements worse. Thus, the expensiveness caused by the deterioration of the supply-demand balance makes establishment or produc ...

Abstract:
... Wind power is one of the most quickly expanding forms of clean energy. A novel horizontal axis wind turbine type, the Archimedes Spiral Wind Turbine (ASWT), is built for residential applications. The influence of the rotor pitch to diameter ratio (2s/D) and the aerofoil blade profile on the productivity of ASWT is investigated using experimentation and computer simulation. To fulfill the validatio ...

With the increasing requirement for high capacity energy storage systems, a large amount of recent work has focused on the development of zinc-iodine batteries (ZIBs) on account of high energy density, fast redox kinetics, and excellent reversibility. Nevertheless, low electron conductivity, the shuttle effect, and highly soluble iodine species (I₂, I⁻, and I₃⁻) have impeded their widespread appli ...

Abstract:
... The nonlinear components of predictors could be informative, while conventional predictive regression models only consider the linear components in the time-series prediction of crude oil price returns. Inspired by this, we propose a novel method to obtain useful information embedded in the predictors’ nonlinearity. We incorporate not only the original predictors (i.e., the linear components) but ...

Abstract:
... The integration of thermal energy storage in chilled water systems is an effective way to improve energy efficiency and is essential for achieving carbon emission reduction. However, the commonly used large-scale thermal energy storage needs significantly larger space, which hinders the wide application of thermal storage in large number of existing buildings. Unlike previous studies, this study i ...
