Synthetic saponites were successfully used to prepare phase change materials (PCMs) based on paraffin/synthetic saponite. Paraffin/synthetic saponites PCMs were prepared by a solution intercalation process. The PCMs were characterized by powder X-ray...

The main challenge in extracting geothermal energy is to overcome issues relating to geothermal reservoirs such as the formation damage and formation fracturing. The objective of this study is to develop an integrated framework that considers the geo...

Propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PGMEA) is a commonly used solvent in the rapidly developing semiconductor industry. Ultra-high purity PGMEA is required for this ultra-precision industry and to satisfy the current strict waste management re...

This paper presents the modular topologies of the dual-stator dual-winding permanent magnet (PM) linear motors for linear compressors used in the electrified transportation application. Compared to the conventional PM linear motor in compressor, the...

Distributed energy resources (DERs) play an indispensable role in mitigating global warming. The DERs require flexibility owing to the uncertainty of their power output when connected to the power grid. Recently, blockchain technology has actualized...

Countries around the world develop and use software based on the monthly calculation method of DIN V 18599:2007 and EN ISO13790 for building energy performance evaluations. The purpose of this study is to propose a method that can consider the effect...

Upscaling of photoelectrode for a practical photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting system is still challenging because the PEC performance of large-scale photoelectrode is significantly low, compared to the lab scale photoelectrode. In an effort...

The main purpose of this study is to optimize engine performance and emission characteristics of off-road engines with retarded spark timing compared to MBT by repurposing the existing passenger engine. This study uses a one-dimensional (1D)-simulati...

The state estimation of distribution networks has long been considered a challenging task for the reduced availability of real-time measures with respect to the transmission network case. This issue is expected to be improved by the deployment of mod...

The use of concentrated solar irradiation for the improvement of electric generation improvement has been implemented on different scales, mainly in photovoltaic systems. High-concentration Fresnel lenses are widely chosen for this approach in large...
