We show in this work that a finite-time-thermodynamics model of an irreversible Otto cycle is
suitable to reproduce performance results of a real spark ignition heat engine. In order to …

A thermodynamic model for a steady state pumped heat energy storage in liquid media is
presented: it comprises a coupled Brayton-like heat pump and heat engine cycles connected …

A thermodynamic model for a realistic Brayton cycle, working as an externally fired gas turbine
fueled with biomass is presented. The use of an external combustion chamber, allows to …

Because of the rising demand for CO 2 emission limits and the high cost of fuel, the electrification
of heavy-duty vehicles has become a hot topic. Manufacturers have tried a variety of …

A pumped heat energy storage (PHES) system based on a Rankine cycle for supercritical
working fluids, such as carbon dioxide and ammonia, accounting for the irreversible latent and …

A multi-objective and multi-parametric optimization of a Pumped Thermal Electricity Storage
system based on Brayton cycles is presented by the calculation of different Pareto fronts and …

A simple numerical model is presented to simulate the combustion of a biomass particle in a
vertical stream. Emphasis focuses on the trajectories of spherical and cylindrical particles in …

The technology of Pumped Heat Energy Storage allows for the storage of large amounts of
electrical energy, which is currently crucial due to the worldwide use of renewable energy …

This work presents a comprehensive model for lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis, addressing
kinetics, energy balances, and gas product composition with the aim of its application in …
