Calculation of thermoacoustic functions with computational fluid dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Thermoacoustic functions are important parameters of one-dimensional codes used for the design of thermoacoustic engines. The thermal and viscous thermoacoustic functions allow the inclusion of three dimensional effects in one-dimensional codes.

Potential of Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC) for waste heat recovery on an Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is a mature technology to convert low temperature waste heat to electricity. While several energy intensive industries could benefit from the integration of an ORC, their adoption rate is rather low.

Influence of resonator diameter on a miniature thermoacoustic Stirling heat engine

open access: yesChinese Science Bulletin, 2008
A small scale thermoacoustic Stirling engine (TASHE) is simulated according to the linear thermoacoustic theory. The computed results show that in a small scale thermoacoustic Stirling heat engine, the diameter of the resonance tube might have important influences on the working frequency and the performance of the engine, which are always neglected in
