Exploitation of solar energy for achieving low temperature is an active area of research at present owing to the concern over suitable alternatives to synthetic refrigerants and large electricity consumption by conventional vapour compression systems. Present work theoretically design and analyze the performance of a solar flat-plate collector-driven water-Lithium bromide absorption refrigerati...

The present study investigates the effectiveness of thermostat control strategy in cooling energy consumption in residential buildings. To evaluate the energy consumption, two scenarios including a residential zone with and without the thermostat control system are assumed. The TRNSYS software provides an efficient numerical tool to model and evaluate a cooling system. Furthermore, since solar-...

The aim of this work is to investigate a novel integrated cooling, heating, and power (CCHP) system with biomass gasification, solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC), micro-gas turbine, absorption chiller. performance analyzed by mathematical models consisting lumped SOFC chiller one-dimensional model downdraft gasifier. Effects main operating parameters such as moisture content biomass, air flow rate i...

A methodology was developed to design the number and capacity for each piece of equipment (e.g., gas engines, batteries, thermal storage tanks) in a microgrid that has a combined heat and power (CHP) system. In this design methodology, annual cost including the annual operation cost and the annual initial cost is minimized. Based on calculations using this design methodology, it is found that s...

Modern data centers are playing a pivotal role in the global economic situation. Unlike high-quality source of waste heat, it is challenging to recover decentralized and low-quality heat sourced from due numerous technological hurdles. As such, utmost importance explore possible pathways maximize energy efficiency utilize their recovery. Absorption chiller systems promising technology for recov...
