Studies on Pressurized Solar Thermal Receiver and Thermal Energy Storage System
High-efficiency power cycles for concentrating solar power (CSP) technology such as air or supercritical carbon-dioxide (s-CO2) based Brayton cycle require high-pressure high-temperature conditions at the gas turbine ...
Interaction of PbTe with and its alloys at diffusion bonded interfaces: Temperature dependent evolution of phases and microstructure
The past years have seen an increasing interest in high-efficient thermoelectric materials because of their promising application to harvest the widely distributed waste heat. Realizing high-efficient TE materials into ...
Internal Boiling to Flame Flickering: Insights into Various Spatio-temporal Dynamics of Nanofuel Droplet Combustion
Addition of metal and metalloid particles (micron and sub-micron) to conventional fuels like Jet-A has been a ‘liquid-fuel extender’ technique i.e. increased specific energy for less amount of liquid fuels. One of the main ...
Density Stratified Thermal Energy Storage System and Associated Fluid Dynamic Perturbations
The hunger of humankind for energy has reached unprecedented levels with the ever-rising industrialization and global population surge. We are witnessing a global economic evolution towards a clean, affordable, sustainable ...
Advances in Architecturing of Large-Scale Photovoltaics: Packaging and Incidence Angle Agnostic Hierarchical Nanostructures
Encapsulant of Graphene embedded polymer that exhibits low permeability to moisture and oxygen were used as a packaging material for OPVDs. Graphene-Surlyn encapsulated and unencapsulated devices were stored both in ambient ...
Unravelling the composition space of Zr2FeNiSb2 double half-Heusler thermoelectric material
More than half of annual energy consumption in thermal power plants are released in the form of waste heat. However, this waste heat could be harnessed with the help of thermoelectric (TE) devices which can convert this ...
