(2013-04-01)
Hydrogen is a green-energy carrier with a high heat of combustion. If obtained from renewable sources, it could be the ultimate and environmentally benign solution for the future energy requirements. This thesis presents ...
Design, analysis and experimental investigation of Cu-Cl based integrated systems
(2013-01-01)
Burning fossil fuels for power generation results in emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur oxides (SOx), which are harmful to living creatures ...
Investigation of energy storage options for sustainable energy systems.
(2013-08-01)
Determination of the possible energy storage options for a specific source of
energy requires a thorough analysis from the points of energy, exergy, and
exergoeconomics. The main objective of this thesis is to investigate ...
Leadership based multi-objective optimization with applications in energy systems.
(2013-12-01)
Multi-objective optimization metaheuristics (MOMs) are powerful methods for solving complex optimization problems but can require a large number of function evaluations to find optimal solutions. Thus, an efficient ...
Investigation of energy storage options for thermal management in hybrid electric vehicles
(2013-01-01)
Electric and hybrid electric vehicles could have a significant role in the sustainable transportation. Higher power density lead to extra heat generation and thermal runaway in the Li-ion cells. Therefore, a successful ...
