Maximum power Point Tracking control of thermoelectric generation system using extremum seeking control method (2017)
Journal Article
Twaha, S., Zhu, J., Maraaba, L., Huang, K., Li, B., & Yan, Y. (2017). Maximum power Point Tracking control of thermoelectric generation system using extremum seeking control method. Energies, 10, https://doi.org/10.3390/en10122016

This study proposes and implements maximum power Point Tracking (MPPT) control on thermoelectric generation system using extremum seeking control (ESC) algorithm. The MPPT is applied to guarantee maximum power extraction from the TEG system. The work...

Heat transfer enhancement of a modularised thermoelectric power generator for passenger vehicles (2017)
Journal Article
Li, B., Huang, K., Yan, Y., Li, Y., Twaha, S., & Zhu, J. (2017). Heat transfer enhancement of a modularised thermoelectric power generator for passenger vehicles. Applied Energy, 205, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2017.08.092

Transport represents over a quarter of Europe's greenhouse gas emissions and is the leading cause of air pollution in cities. It has not seen the same gradual decline in emissions as other sectors. Recently, the thermoelectric power generation (TEG)... Read More about Heat transfer enhancement of a modularised thermoelectric power generator for passenger vehicles.

Numerical investigation of flow unsteadiness and heat transfer on suction surface of rotating airfoils within a gas turbine cascade (2017)
Journal Article
Guo, L., Yan, Y., Sun, W., & Zhu, J. (in press). Numerical investigation of flow unsteadiness and heat transfer on suction surface of rotating airfoils within a gas turbine cascade. Propulsion and Power Research, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jppr.2017.05.005

The effects of the periodical turbulence and pressure fluctuation on suction surface heat transfer over airfoils of a row of rotor blades with a certain type have been investigated numerically in this paper. The calculation is performed using model w... Read More about Numerical investigation of flow unsteadiness and heat transfer on suction surface of rotating airfoils within a gas turbine cascade.

A comprehensive study on a novel concentric cylindrical thermoelectric power generation system (2017)
Journal Article
Huang, K., Li, B., Yan, Y., Li, Y., Twaha, S., & Zhu, J. (2017). A comprehensive study on a novel concentric cylindrical thermoelectric power generation system. Applied Thermal Engineering, 117, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.applthermaleng.2017.02.060

This paper presents the novel designs of a concentric cylindrical thermoelectric generator (CCTEG) and an annular thermoelectric module (ATEM). The simulations are carried out to compare the performance of ATEM and the conventional square-shaped ther...
