Adding a compressor to basic in-counter-series triple-effect lithium bromide absorption refrigerating cycle is an effective solution to reduce the temperature of high pressure generator and slow down the corrosion situation. Exergy analysis based on thermodynamic analysis shows that the compressor placed between the low pressure generator and the condenser is the best, which help the system get the highest energy efficiency.

During the last few years, the awareness of the pollution and the global warming has dramatically increased which encourage the researchers around the world to find an alternative source of energy. One of the most efficient sources of energy is the solar energy especially for cooling and heating applications. This paper, described the simulation of a double-effect solar absorption system in Yemen using water lithium bromide solution as a working fluid. The system will be applied to a typical traditional house in Yemen. The performance of the system will be analyzed based on different high pressure generator temperature for the yearly solar radiation data. At higher pressure generator temperature, the results show a higher coefficient of performance of the system. This simulation also estimate high pressure generator heat transfer required to operate the system. As a result, the size of solar collector area and the cost of such system will be calculated.

At weather stations outside of the United States meteorological balloons are usually inflated with hydrogen. At stations remote from large industrial centers it is usually cheaper to generate the hydrogen at the station than to ship it in cylinders from the industrial center. Probably the most common hydrogen generator for station use is of the high pressure chemical style where pressures in excess of 2000 p.s.i. are not uncommon. To reduce the number of serious accidents occurring through the use of these high pressure generators, a low pressure generator with a maximum pressure of 4 p.s.i. has been developed.

AbstractA conventional and advanced exergy analysis of a turbofan engine is presented in this paper. In this framework, the main exergy parameters of the engine components are introduced while the exergy destruction rates within the engine components are split into endogenous/exogenous and avoidable/unavoidable parts. Also, the mutual interdependencies among the components of the engine and realistic improvement potentials depending on operating conditions are acquired through the analysis. As a result of the study, the exergy efficiency values of the engine are determined to be 25.7 % for actual condition, 27.55 % for unavoidable condition and 30.54 % for theoretical contion, repectively. The system has low improvement potential because the unavoidable exergy destruction rate is 90 %. The relationships between the components are relatively weak since the endogenous exergy destruction is 73 %. Finally, it may be concluded that the low pressure compressor, the high pressure compressor, the fan, the low pressure compressor, the high pressure compressor and the combustion chamber of the engine should be focused on according to the results obtained.

An energy model was developed based on the fuel-product concept. The matrix equation for exergy balance of regenerative system was established, and the mathematical model for exergy analysis of thermal system was structured. Exergy losses, exergy loss rate, exergy loss coefficient and exergy efficiency of the main components of a domestic N600-24.2/566/566 power plant were calculated based on this model. The results showed that the exergy efficiency of high pressure heaters are higher than that of low pressure heaters; the exergy efficiency of grade group of the intermediate pressure turbine are higher than the grade group of high pressure turbine and low pressure turbine. The exergy efficiency of the last grade group of low pressure turbine is the lowest. The exergy efficiency of the governing stage and the last grade group of low pressure turbine are 82.999% and 85.911%; the coefficient of exergy loss is maximum in the boiler (39.204%); the exergy effciency of superheater and reheater are 51.52% and 51.7%. Therefore, superheater and reheater have the largest energy conservation potential. Governing stage and low pressure turbine have more energy conservation potential.

Commercial polymeric membranes are generally recognized to have low sustainability as membranes need to be replaced and abandoned after reaching the end of their life. At present, only techniques for downcycling end-of-life high-pressure membranes are available. For the first time, this study paves the way for upcycling fouled/end-of-life low-pressure membranes to fabricate new high-pressure membranes for water purification, forming a closed eco-loop of membrane recycling with significantly improved sustainability.

The energy efficiency experiment of electric light is implemented according to the lighting design of the physical training venues. In the experiment, the corresponding illumination, power and energy efficiency ratio of the commonly used high pressure sodium lamp and metal halide lamp which work under the voltage ranging from 187V to 234V are experimentally measured and the lighting effect characteristics of the two kinds of electric light sources compared, proving that the high pressure sodium light source should be employed in the training venue for physical education of universities.

We report the first high-pressure spectroscopy study on Zn(IO3)2 using synchrotron far-infrared radiation. Spectroscopy was conducted up to pressures of 17 GPa at room temperature. Twenty-five phonons were identified below 600 cm−1 for the initial monoclinic low-pressure polymorph of Zn(IO3)2. The pressure response of the modes with wavenumbers above 150 cm−1 has been characterized, with modes exhibiting non-linear responses and frequency discontinuities that have been proposed to be related to the existence of phase transitions. Analysis of the high-pressure spectra acquired on compression indicates that Zn(IO3)2 undergoes subtle phase transitions around 3 and 8 GPa, followed by a more drastic transition around 13 GPa.

AbstractAlthough tin monoxide (SnO) is an interesting compound due to its p-type conductivity, a widespread application of SnO has been limited by its narrow band gap of 0.7 eV. In this work, we theoretically investigate the structural and electronic properties of several SnO phases under high pressures through employing van der Waals (vdW) functionals. Our calculations reveal that a metastable SnO (β-SnO), which possesses space group P21/c and a wide band gap of 1.9 eV, is more stable than α-SnO at pressures higher than 80 GPa. Moreover, a stable (space group P2/c) and a metastable (space group Pnma) phases of SnO appear at pressures higher than 120 GPa. Energy and topological analyses show that P2/c-SnO has a high possibility to directly transform to β-SnO at around 120 GPa. Our work also reveals that β-SnO is a necessary intermediate state between high-pressure phase Pnma-SnO and low-pressure phase α-SnO for the phase transition path Pnma-SnO →β-SnO → α-SnO. Two phase transition analyses indicate that there is a high possibility to synthesize β-SnO under high-pressure conditions and have it remain stable under normal pressure. Finally, our study reveals that the conductive property of β-SnO can be engineered in a low-pressure range (0–9 GPa) through a semiconductor-to-metal transition, while maintaining transparency in the visible light range.
