How to Construct a Combined S-CO2 Cycle for Coal Fired Power Plant?

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
It is difficult to recover the residual heat from flue gas when supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) cycle is used for a coal fired power plant, due to the higher CO2 temperature in tail flue and the limited air temperature in air preheater. The combined

Study on a Heat-Driven Thermoacoustic Refrigerator for Low-Grade Heat Recovery [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Energy, 2020
Recovering low-grade heat from renewable energy sources and waste heat is crucial for improving energy utilizing efficiency as well as reducing CO2 emissions. Conventional thermoacoustically-driven refrigerators have a high onset temperature and low cooling efficiency, which significant limit their capacity for low-grade heat utilization.
