Three Approaches to Low-Duty Turbo Compressor Efficiency Exploitation Evaluation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
This paper presents three approaches for isentropic, energy, and exergy evaluations of a low-duty liquid natural gas (LNG) vapor turbo compressor during exploitation on a conventional LNG carrier.

Performance of superadiabatic quantum machines

open access: yes, 2016
We investigate the performance of a quantum thermal machine operating in finite time based on shortcut-to-adiabaticity techniques. We compute efficiency and power for a quantum harmonic Otto engine by taking the energetic cost of the superadiabatic ...

On the role of recombination in common-envelope ejections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The energy budget in common-envelope events (CEEs) is not well understood, with substantial uncertainty even over to what extent the recombination energy stored in ionised hydrogen and helium might be used to help envelope ejection.

Techno‐Economic‐Environmental Assessment of Pyrolysis‐Based Power Production From Methane

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Methane pyrolysis enables low‐carbon power generation by converting natural gas into hydrogen and solid carbon without direct carbon dioxide formation. This study presents a comprehensive techno‐economic‐environmental assessment of an integrated pyrolysis‐based combined cycle (T‐cycle) and benchmarks its performance against a conventional natural gas ...

In Situ Methanation on Mars: A Process Concept Study on the Impact of H2/CO2 and Recycle Ratio

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 98, Issue 4, Page 156-164, April 2026.
The rocket propellant methane can be produced on Mars by in situ resource utilization. The H2/CO2 ratio is decisive, and excess H2 is favored for providing sufficient propellant purity. The operation mode—with or without recycling of unreacted reactants—depends on the resource availability of the selected landing site. Abstract For return missions from

Exact and Asymptotic Measures of Multipartite Pure State Entanglement

open access: yes, 2000
In an effort to simplify the classification of pure entangled states of multi (m) -partite quantum systems, we study exactly and asymptotically (in n) reversible transformations among n'th tensor powers of such states (ie n copies of the state shared ...

Single ion heat engine with maximum efficiency at maximum power [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We propose an experimental scheme to realize a nano heat engine with a single ion. An Otto cycle may be implemented by confining the ion in a linear Paul trap with tapered geometry and coupling it to engineered laser reservoirs. The quantum efficiency at

Sensitivity analysis applied to the multi-objective optimization of a MCFC hybrid plant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper, the multi-objective optimization of a molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) based hybrid plant fueled with landfill gas is performed. System operation is significantly affected by off-design conditions.
