Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 98, Issue 8, Page 514-524, August 2026.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

Exergy Efficiency of Closed and Unsteady-Flow Systems

open access: yesEntropy
Exergy efficiency is viewed as the degree of approaching reversible operation, with a value of 100 percent for a reversible process characterized by zero entropy generation or equivalently zero exergy destruction since Xdestroyed = T0Sgen.

Comparative Performance Analysis of Various Flat Plate Solar Collectors Incorporating Spiral and Square Arrangement of Circular Type Riser Tube

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 3828-3847, August 2026.
Three flat‐plate collectors with spiral and square coiled riser tubes were tested and it was found that the spiral type provides the best results with a thermal efficiency of 66.98% for a mass flow rate of 0.4 kg/min. Riser tube geometry is a key factor in optimizing flat‐plate collector output.
