Thermodynamic analysis of a novel fossil-fuel–free energy storage system with a trans-critical carbon dioxide cycle and heat pump [PDF]
This paper presents and analyzes a novel fossil-fuel–free trans-critical energy storage system that uses CO2 as the working fluid in a closed loop shuttled between two saline aquifers or caverns at different depths: one a low-pressure reservoir and the ...

A multi evaporator desalination system operated with thermocline energy for future sustainability [PDF]
All existing commercial seawater desalination processes, i.e. thermally-driven and membrane-based reverse osmosis (RO), are operated with universal performance ratios (UPR) varying up to 105, whilst the UPR for an ideal or thermodynamic limit (TL) of ...

Advanced exergy analysis of an aircraft gas turbine engine: Splitting exergy destructions into parts
Abstract Advanced exergy analysis of an aircraft gas turbine engine is presented in this paper. In this framework, the main exergy parameters of the engine components are introduced while the exergy destruction rates within the engine components are split into endogenous/exogenous and avoidable/unavoidable parts.

Energy-water-environment nexus underpinning future desalination sustainability [PDF]
Energy-water-environment nexus is very important to attain COP21 goal, maintaining environment temperature increase below 2 °C, but unfortunately two third share of CO2 emission has already been used and the remaining will be exhausted by 2050.

Advanced exergy analysis on varying climate conditions for a 3 MW S-CO2 Brayton cycle system
Aiming at the problem that conventional exergy analysis cannot provide comprehensive insights into exergy destruction, advanced exergy analysis was conducted on the supercritical CO2 cycle. A more detailed breakdown of exergy destruction was revealed. In
