Thermodynamic and Economic Analysis of a High Temperature Cascade Heat Pump System for Steam Generation

Design and Thermodynamic Analysis of a Steam Ejector Refrigeration/Heat Pump System for Naval Surface Ship Applications

Abstract: Naval surface ships should use thermally driven heating and cooling technologies to continue the Navy’s leadership role in protecting the marine environment. Steam ejector refrigeration (SER) or steam ejector heat pump (SEHP) systems are thermally driven heating and cooling technologies and seem to be a promising technology to reduce emissions for heating and cooling on board naval su...

High Temperature Heat Pump Research and Development

Development of High-Temperature Heat Pump Using

four kinds of refrigerant mixtures R22/Rl34a, R22/Rl52a, R22/Rl42b and R22/Rl23, which contain some new halocarbons which are considered to be the alternatives for CFCs, were evaluated in order to realize higher condensing temperature than that using R22 at high temperature operation, and larger heating capacity than that using R22/Rll4 at normal temperature operation. These mixtures were appli...

Thermodynamic Analysis of a Trigeneration System Based-on an Internal combustion Engine with a Steam Ejector Refrigeration System

This paper aims at studying a trigeneration system, based on an internal combustion engine and a steam ejector refrigeration system. The designed cycle is to generate cooling and heating energies, and supply power simultaneously. The cycle is studied from thermodynamics point of view and for this purpose, the first law of thermodynamics is applied to all components of the cycle. The efficiency ...

Multi-boiling Heat Transfer Analysis of a Convective Straight Fin with Temperature-Dependent Thermal Properties and Internal Heat Generation

In this study, by using the finite volume method, the heat transfer in a convective straight fin with temperature-dependent thermal properties and an internal heat generation under multi-boiling heat transfer modes are analyzed. In this regard, the local heat transfer coefficient is considered to vary within a power-law function of temperature. In the present study, the coexistence of all the b...
