Proposal of a new low-temperature thermodynamic cycle: 3E analysis and optimization of a solar pond integrated with fuel cell and thermoelectric generator

Farayi Musharavati et al.

Summary: The present research introduces a novel hybrid system that integrates a salinity gradient solar pond (SGSP), a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), and a thermoelectric generator (TEG). By utilizing waste heat from PEMFC and recovering waste energy with TEG, the system's overall performance is improved. The study examines the energy, exergy, and economic performance of the proposed system and compares it with two alternative systems without TEG and PEMFC. A parametric study is conducted to analyze the impact of significant parameters on the system's performance. The results demonstrate the advantages of the integrated system and provide optimization strategies for achieving the best performance.

Comparative study on the thermodynamic and economic performance of novel absorption power cycles driven by the waste heat from a supercritical CO2 cycle

Feng Zhang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the performance improvement of the recompression supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO(2)) power cycle by integrating with two novel absorption power cycles (APC). Comparative study and optimization analysis show that all APC subsystems can enhance the stand-alone sCO(2) system performance and the proposed sCO(2)/APC systems further improve the overall performance of the original sCO(2)/APC system.
