exergy analysis of an integrated molten carbonate fuel cell-turbo expander-steam turbine hybrid cycle has been presented in this study. the proposed cycle has been used as a sustainable energy approach to provide a micro hybrid power plant with high exergy efficiency. to generate electricity by the mentioned system, an externally reformed molten carbonate fuel cell located upstream of the combi...

conceptual design of a waste heat recovery cycle is carried out in attempt to enhance the thermal efficiency of a steam power plant. in the recovery system, super-critical an co2 is employed as the working fluid operating in a brayton cycle. low grade heat rejected by the flue gases through the stack is used as the primary heat source, while a secondary heat exchanger utilizes the hot gases lea...

in this paper, the heat balance of an engine was investigated experimentally. the experimental work was conducted on the ef7 natural gas fueled and turbocharged engine. the main goal was to develop an empirical equation to be able to predict the heat balance of the engine at various loads and conditions. the data were collected at four different conditions, two different loads and two different...
