A comprehensive evaluation of PV electricity production methods and life cycle energy-cost assessment of a particular system
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2019)
This paper presents the study about electricity generation from solar photovoltaic technology based on four different methodologies with some performance indicators, namely performance ratio, system efficiency, fill and ...
Experimental exergoeconomic performance assessment of a wastewater source heat pump system
(INDERSCIENCE ENTERPRISES LTD, 2019)
This study aims at experimentally analysing and assessing the performance of a wastewater source heat pump system (WWSHP) in cooling mode, which was installed at Yasar University, Izmir, Turkey through exergetic and ...
Enhanced exergetic analysis of an olive oil refining plant: evaluation of the first and second level of exergy destructions
(INDERSCIENCE ENTERPRISES LTD, 2019)
Enhanced exergy analysis is built up as a novel modality to specify the origins of irreversibilities and to concentrate substantial improvement potential of components. The scope of this paper is to apply the enhanced ...
Performance evaluation of a mobile air conditioning unit: an exergetic approach
(INDERSCIENCE ENTERPRISES LTD, 2019)
This study considers a public bus (having a capacity of 99 passengers and a volume of 69 m(3)) along with its vapour compressed mobile air conditioning (MAC) unit (utilising R134a as a refrigerant) together as a low exergy ...
Performance evaluation of a building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system combined with a wastewater source heat pump (WWSHP) system
(Energy Procedia, 2017)
This paper deals with both energetic and exergetic performance assessments of two combined systems as a whole. The first one is a Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) system while the second one is a wastewater (WW) ...
A comparative study on estimating the landfill gas potential: Modeling and analysis
(Energy Sources, Part A: Recovery, Utilization and Environmental Effects, 2016)
The main objective of this study is to investigate the use of the landfill gas as potential energy and electricity obtained from the municipal solid waste (domestic, industrial, medical waste, and sewage sludge) stored ...
Splitting the exergy destructions of an olive oil refining plant into avoidable and unavoidable parts based on actual operational data
(International Journal of Exergy, 2016)
This study focused on assessing the performance of an olive oil refinery plant (with an oil capacity of 5595 kg/h) located in Izmir, Turkey. The analysis was performed with the use of actual operational data of the system ...
Heat exchanger applications in wastewater source heat pumps for buildings: A key review
(Energy and Buildings, 2015)
Abstract Wastewater heat recovery applications are becoming widespread in energy saving applications. A sustainable and low emissions operation in air conditioning and heating processes is achieved by harvesting the otherwise ...
Enhanced exergy analyses of a gas engine heat pump (GEHP) dryer for medicinal and aromatic plants
(International Journal of Exergy, 2015)
In this study, the performance of a gas engine heat pump (GEHP) drying system is evaluated using both conventional and advanced (or enhanced) exergetic analysis methods. The results indicated that the inefficiencies within ...
Renewable energy effect in a building heating system
(Environment, Energy and Applied Technology - Proceedings of the 2014 3rd International Conference on Frontier of Energy and Environment Engineering, ICFEEE 2014, 2015)
This study deals with performance of net zero energy building and comparable energy/ exergy analyses. Heating energy system is investigated from the primary energy production to the building envelope. As a building, a two ...
