Cooling loads analysis of an endoreversible solar absorption refrigerator cycle
This paper deals with the analysis of the Cooling Loads (CL) of a solar absorption refrigerator. For this purpose, a new Process Conceptual Design (PCD) approach based on equivalent endoreversible model and hierarchical decomposition is developed. The influences of many cooling load aspects on the model performances are investigated. A sensitive study is made: performance coefficient (i.e. its ...

New definition of fluid exergy in a gravitational field
This paper discusses the concept of working fluid exergy in an atmosphere stratified by a gravitational field, particularly the hot humid air in the atmosphere. A definition of exergy, different from that recently proposed by Petela (2008), is presented. Thermodynamic diagrams illustrate its elements and its technically feasible part in a transparent way. Reference papers are given for ...

Heating Electrification: Policies to Drive Ground-Source Heat Pump Adoption
Executive Summary Ground-source heat pumps (GSHPs) are typically the most efficient form of heating and cooling for buildings. For every unit of electricity a GSHP system consumes, it produces roughly 3-4 units of equivalent heat (or cooling), thanks to the solar energy naturally stored underground. Because of these efficiencies, GSHPs can provide significant cost savings in the effort to ...
