Computer simulations of silicide-tetrahedrite thermoelectric generators
(MDPI, 2022)
Artículo / Artikulua,
With global warming and rising energy demands, it is important now than ever to transit to
renewable energy systems. Thermoelectric (TE) devices can present a feasible alternative to generate
clean energy from waste heat. ...
Corrosion behavior in volcanic soils: in search of candidate materials for thermoelectric devices
(MDPI, 2021)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Thermoelectric generators have emerged as an excellent solution for the energy supply of volcanic monitoring stations due to their compactness and continuous power generation. Nevertheless, in order to become a completely ...
Performance assessment of an experimental CO2 transcritical refrigeration plant working with a thermoelectric subcooler in combination with an internal heat exchanger
(Elsevier, 2022)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Regulations in the refrigeration sector are forcing the transition to low global warming potential fluids such as carbon dioxide in order to decrease direct greenhouse gases emissions. Several technologies have arisen over ...
Improvements in the cooling capacity and the COP of a transcritical CO 2 refrigeration plant operating with a thermoelectric subcooling system
(Elsevier, 2019)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
Restrictive environmental regulations are driving the use of CO 2 as working fluid in commercial vapour compression plants due to its ultra-low global warming potential (GWP 100 = 1) and its natural condition. However, at ...
Prospects of waste-heat recovery from a real industry using thermoelectric generators: economic and power output analysis
(Elsevier, 2020)
Artículo / Artikulua,
One of the options to reduce industrial energy costs and the environmental impact is to recover the waste-heat produce in some processes. This paper proposes the use of thermoelectric generators at a stone wool manufacturing ...
Experimental validation and development of an advanced computational model of a transcritical carbon dioxide vapour compression cycle with a thermoelectric subcooling system
(Elsevier, 2022)
Artículo / Artikulua,
The inclusion of a thermoelectric subcooler as an alternative to increment the performance of a vapour compression cycle has been proved promising when properly designed and operated for low-medium power units. In this ...
Experimental evidence of the viability of thermoelectric generators to power volcanic monitoring stations
(MDPI, 2020)
Artículo / Artikulua,
Although there is an important lack of commercial thermoelectric applications mainly
due to their low efficiency, there exist some cases in which thermoelectric generators are the best
option thanks to their well-known ...
Influence of temperature and aging on the thermal contact resistance in thermoelectric devices
(Springer, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
During thermal design in the first phases development, thermoelectric systems, such as thermoelectric generators, the most important parameter affecting the performance is thermal resistance of the components. This paper ...
Experimental evaluation of a transcritical CO2 refrigeration facility working with an internal heat exchanger and a thermoelectric subcooler: performance assessment and comparative
(Elsevier, 2022)
Artículo / Artikulua,
The use of carbon dioxide in transcritical state has become one of the most used solutions to comply with the F-Gas directive and reduce greenhouse gases emissions from refrigeration systems at high ambient temperatures. ...
Experimental enhancement of a CO2 transcritical refrigerating plant including thermoelectric subcooling
(Elsevier, 2020)
info:eu-repo/semantics/article,
CO2 is an excellent natural refrigerant that can be used in almost any commercial cooling application thanks to its useful range of evaporative temperatures and excellent environmental properties. However, due to its low ...
