Use of cryogenic buoyancy systems for controlled removal of heavy objects from the seabed

open access: yes, 2009
The concept design of a lightweight cryogenic marine heavy lift buoyancy system has been investigated. The approach makes use of a novel cryogenic system for provision of buoyancy within the ocean environment. The objective is to be able to lift or lower

Numerical Simulation and Analysis of Heat Transfer Characteristics in Gradient‐Porosity Foam Copper Composite Phase Change Materials

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates the heat transfer characteristics of copper‐foam composite phase change materials with different gradient porosities. Three models with uniform porosity and three models with gradient porosities are developed to examine their effects on temperature distribution and melting behavior. ABSTRACT Phase change materials (PCMs) exhibit

Modeling and Experimental Study of a Dual‐Receiver Parabolic Solar Concentrator for Direct Electricity Generation and Thermal Storage for Isolated Sites

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Approximately 64% of the population in sub‐Saharan Africa lacks access to electricity, despite the region's high solar potential, making concentrated solar power a promising solution for decentralized and sustainable energy supply. This study presents the design, construction, and testing of a parabolic solar concentrator with two focal‐point receivers

A Krasznokvajdai mikrotérség lakosságának közlekedési szokásai

open access: yesTér és Társadalom, 2009
Hazánk periférikus térségeiben a rendszerváltozást megelőző évtizedekben – ha meglehetősen szerény mértékben is –, de elfogadhatóak voltak az életkörülmények, és nem voltak kirívóan nagy területi különbségek.

Binary Nanoparticle Combinations in Acetone‐Based Working Fluids for Thermal Performance Enhancement of Evacuated Tube Solar Water Collectors

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Illustration of the work. ABSTRACT This experimental investigation evaluates the thermal performance enhancement of evacuated tube solar water collectors through the implementation of binary nanofluid formulations using acetone as the base fluid. Three metal oxide nanoparticles, including magnesium oxide (MgO), copper oxide (CuO), and titanium dioxide (

Equivariant formality of istropy actions

open access: yes, 2018
Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $K$ a connected Lie subgroup. In this paper, we collect an assortment of results on equivariant formality of the isotropy action of $K$ on $G/K$ and thus improving those from previous work. We show that if the

Intelligent Control Framework of District Heating Systems Considering Waste Heat Utilization in Data Centers

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A deep reinforcement learning–based control architecture is proposed to coordinate heat pumps, thermal storage, renewable energy, and demand response in data center waste heat recovery systems. The agent learns optimal control actions from system states and reward feedback to achieve electrical–thermal co‐optimization under realistic operational ...
