In manufacturing, for instance, heat recovery from industrial processes can lead to significant energy savings. Similarly, power plants can employ heat recovery systems to boost overall efficiency by capturing and utilizing waste heat. Technological Diversity: Various heat recovery technologies and systems contribute to this endeavor, ranging from heat exchangers and cogeneration (combined heat and power) systems to more specialized solutions like desiccant wheels and thermal storage. Each method addresses specific operational needs, providing a versatile toolkit for engineers and system designers. Environmental and Economic Impact: Beyond their technical prowess, heat recovery methods make a substantial contribution to environmental sustainability. By reducing the demand for additional energy inputs, these methods aid in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions and diminishing reliance on finite resources. Simultaneously, the economic benefits of improved energy efficiency underscore the financial advantages of adopting heat recovery practices. Challenges and Opportunities: While heat recovery holds immense promise, its widespread adoption faces challenges related to system integration, infrastructure, and economic considerations. Striking a balance between initial investment costs and long-term savings remains a crucial aspect of decision-making. However, as technological advancements continue, opportunities emerge to overcome these challenges, making heat recovery an increasingly viable and attractive option for industries worldwide. Conclusion: Heat recovery methods represent a cornerstone of sustainable and responsible energy management. As industries and societies strive to meet ambitious energy efficiency goals and reduce their environmental footprint, the role of heat recovery becomes ever more crucial.

This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objectives of the Ccmnunity's energy policy consist of securing a sufficient energy supply for the present and future demand of its Member States and in reducing the Community's dependence on imported energy through the more rational use of energy and a broader diversifi cation of supply. This requires a full set of common efforts at all levels, including energy research and development. In the framework of its strategy for scientific and technological research the Commission of the European Ccmnunities has launched several R & D progranunes in the field of energy. Theses progranunes are :inplemented either directly in its Joint Research Centre or by concluding contracts with research institutions in the EC Member countries. One of the most inportant short and medil.UR term objectives of the present four-year Energy R & D Progranune (1979 - 1983) approved by the Council of Ministers on 13 September 1979 aims at fostering energy conservation technologies in the three main energy consl.Uning sectors: danestic, industry and transport. In the European Carmunity more than 35% of the energy is conslB'IIed in industry. About 23% of the inported oil is used in this sector. Two thirds of this energy are used for heating purposes. Consequently, there is a high potential for residuary heat recovery. In order to enhance rational use of energy and energy conservation in the Member States of the Ccmnunity, it is necessary, anong other things, to promote the development of combustion and energy recovery techniques.

Book On the Improvement of Combustion Engines with Waste Heat Recovery Systems in Mobile Applications

Download or read book On the Improvement of Combustion Engines with Waste Heat Recovery Systems in Mobile Applications written by Thomas Matousek and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2019-08-10 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation deals with the experimental and simulative investigation of waste heat recovery from combustion engine exhaust gas in passenger car applications. The focus of the investigations lies on the thermodynamic cycle according to Rankine. The boundary conditions of combustion engines and the limitations of an automobile cause new operating conditions and system operating parameters for Rankine-systems, which will be discussed within this work. The system operating parameters were judged based on their potential to improve the efficiency of a running system, by setting the optimal values for each individual situation. Alternative circuit variants were investigated alongside of the basic configuration, which allowed additional heat input into the system and thereby increase the power output of the Rankine-system. Another operative influence on a waste heat recovery system that was analyzed was the importance of engine operating parameters. This on one hand lays groundwork and on the other hand displays the potentials of different system combinations. The knowledge gained during stationary operation is transferred to dynamic operation in the following. Cold start was chosen as the most important variant of dynamic operation. Results from measurements at starting temperatures down to -10C are presented. These include the first published measurements of temperature and power output for such scenarios. The basics of the behavior of a Rankine-system in cold start are extended by the impact of system operating parameters and circuit configurations. Possible synergies through different kinds of connection from the condenser to the coolant system were investigated as a completing facet of the holistic system view. The target of these investigations was to identify potentials for improvements in the cold start of the automobile by utilizing the heat that is available at the condenser.

Book Power Recovery from Low Grade Heat by Means of Screw Expanders

Download or read book Power Recovery from Low Grade Heat by Means of Screw Expanders written by Ian K Smith and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-06 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current concerns with climate change have resulted in greatly increased interest in power recovery from low grade heat sources. This includes both hot fluid streams which can be expanded directly to produce mechanical power and those which act as a source of heat to closed cycle power generation systems. Power recovery from low grate heat by means of screw expanders with a generalised overview of how best to recover power from such sources, based on thermodynamic considerations, which differs to the approach used in classical thermodynamics textbooks and which includes an introductory description of the types of working fluid that are used in systems used to recover power from such sources and the criteria that must be taken into account in their selection. This is followed by a description of the mathematical modelling of twin screw machine geometry. The modelling of the thermodynamics and fluid flow through such machines is then given, together with how this is used to predict their performance. Finally a detailed description is given of systems currently used or projected both for direct expansion of the source fluid and by recovery of heat from it, which includes those which are particularly suited to the use of screw expanders in place of turbines. A novel generalised approach to the thermodynamics of power recovery from low grade heat systems Gives criteria for working fluid selection Provides details of, and how to model, screw expander geometry Details how to estimate screw expander performance Surveys types of system used for power recovery from low grade heat and where this can be improved by the use of screw expanders.
