Exergy thermodynamics is employed to analyze a binary ammonia water mixture thermodynamic cycle that produces both power and refrigeration. The analysis includes exergy destruction for each component in the cycle as well as the first law and exergy efficiencies of the cycle. The optimum operating conditions are established by maximizing the cycle exergy efficiency for the case of a solar heat source. Performance of the cycle over a range of heat source temperatures of 320–460°K was investigated. It is found that increasing the heat source temperature does not necessarily produce higher exergy efficiency, as is the case for first law efficiency. The largest exergy destruction occurs in the absorber, while little exergy destruction takes place in the boiler.

The current numerical investigation will examine the effect of an impinging mixed convection air jet on the heat transfer rate of a parallel flat plate heat sink. A three-dimensional numerical model was developed to evaluate the effects of the nozzle diameter d, nozzle-to-target vertical placement H/d, Rayleigh number, and the jet Reynolds number on the heat transfer rates from a discrete heat source. Simulations were performed for a Prandtl number of 0.7 and for Reynolds numbers ranging from 100 to 5000. The governing equations were solved in the dimensionless form using a commercial finite-volume package. Average Nusselt numbers were obtained, at H/d=3 and two jet diameters, for the bare heat source, for the heat source with a base heat sink, and for the heat source with the finned heat sink. The heat transfer rates from the bare heat source surface have been compared with the ones obtained with the heat sink in order to determine the overall performance of the heat sink in an impingement configuration.

Solution regeneration of the heat-source tower is significant to guarantee the normal operation of the heat-source tower. Mechanical vapor recompression system is an efficient system for evaporation of solution. In this paper, mechanical vapor recompression system is applied to regenerate solution of heat-source tower. To clarify the merits of mechanical vapor recompression solution regeneration system, several typical solution regeneration systems are modelled. As a result, mechanical vapor recompression shows 35.7%, 73.5% and 91.2% energy saving compared to air-driven heat pump, three-effect evaporating system, and single effect evaporating system, respectively. Furthermore, a heat-source tower heat pump with solution generation system is installed in a typical building in Yangtze river region. The whole heating season performance is simulated to find the effects of different solution regeneration system on the whole heat pump system. As a conclusion, the seasonal coefficient of performance of heat pump is decreased 1.6% by mechanical vapor recompression regeneration system. Comparatively, the seasonal coefficient of performance of heat pump is decreased 2.6%, 4.2% and 10.0% by air-driven heat pump, three-effect evaporating system, and single effect evaporating system, respectively. Practical application: Solution regeneration systems for heat-source tower heat pump systems have been applied in building projects especially in hot summer and cold winter zone in China based on previous investigation. A heat-source tower heat pump system combined with heat pump solution regeneration system has been applied in an office building in Changsha, Hunan Province in China. And its practical operation energy consumption has been reduced obviously compared with traditional single effect evaporation system. Therefore, it is of vital importance to demonstrate the operating performance of different solution regeneration systems applied in heat-source tower heat pump systems in building.

Experiments have been performed using water to determine the single-phase forced convection heat transfer from in-line four simulated electronic chips, which are flush-mounted to one wall of a vertical rectangular channel. The effects of the most influential geometric parameters on heat transfer including chip number, and channel height are tested. The channel height is varied over values of 0.5, 0.7, and 1.0 times the heat source length. The heat flux is set at the three values of 5 W/cm2, 10 W/cm2, and 20 W/cm2, and the Reynolds number based on the heat source length ranges from 6 × 102 to 8 × 104. Transition Reynolds numbers are deduced from the heat transfer data. The experimental results indicate that the heat transfer coefficient is affected strongly by the number of chips and the Reynolds number and weakly by the channel height. Finally, the present results from liquid-cooling are compared with other results from air-cooling, and Prandtl number scaling between air and water is investigated.

Aiming at the high speed permanent magnet (PM) rotor with the heat source, this work investigates the analytic solution to the transient temperature field and thermal stress field of the rotor, considering the influence of the forced air cooling of rotor surface on the stress field. Firstly, dimensionless formulation of the transient heat conduction equation including interior heat source is derived, where the axially non-uniform heat convection coefficient and the temperature of main flow region are equivalent to their mean values. Secondly, the Fourier integral transform method is used to solve the dimensionless heat conduction equation. Then, the obtained temperature field is loaded into the analytical solution of strength, in which three types of stress sources such as interference fit, centrifugal force and temperature gradient are included. Finally, examples are carried out to verify the analytical solutions and relative results are discussed.

In the present work an attempt has been made to study the effect of inlet air refrigeration on the performance of combined cycle power plants. The inlet air cooling for the chosen combined cycle configuration may be done by means of employing a refrigeration system such as vapor compression and vapor absorption system, which derive the energy input from the system itself. In the vapor absorption system, the input energy to generator is given by three possible heat source from the system namely from the gas turbine exhaust, steam bled from steam turbine and exhaust gas from the exit of heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). It has been observed that the vapor absorption system with HRSG exhaust as heat source to the generator is the better option followed by the vapor compression refrigeration system for compressor inlet air cooling. The cooled compressed inlet air up to 280K from 300K improves the plant specific work around 4% and plant efficiency around 0.39 percentage point for the combined cycle using vapor compression system.
