The generation of electricity from solar thermal source has continued to garner more attention due to the very attractive environmental performance, the applicability to small distributed users and as alternative to the fossil fuels power generation. Indeed, solar thermal energy, through the coupling with ORC systems, becomes fit for electric power generation as well and, with a proper thermal ...

recently, the use of renewable energies has increased to  environmental pollution, limitation of fossil energy resources and energy security  one of the means that enable us to use such energies is fuel cells (fc). however, there are many problems  in the commercialization of fc from an economically and operation perspective. one of the most important problems is heat management. new heat pipes...

HEAT INDUCED FATIGUE Heat production during dynamic exercise can elevate core temperature rapidly. Thus, it believed that hyperthermia during prolonged exercise in hot environments is an independent cause of exercise fatigue. Nonetheless, the mechanisms underlying hyperthermia-induced fatigue during prolonged, dynamic exercise in the heat is not well understood. Typically, heat induced fatigue ...

Measurements of radiation near the 670.8 nm atomic spectral line of Lithium as a 30 GeV electron beam propagates through a long, high density heat pipe oven (∼ 1 meter, neutral density ∼ 1015cm−3) have been performed. Practical considerations in the use of Cerenkov radiation as an automatically synchronized diagnostic of the plasma source properties are investigated. Parametric scans of the Cer...
