A comprehensive review of thermoelectric technology: materials, applications, modelling and performance improvement (2016)
Journal Article
Twaha, S., Zhu, J., Yan, Y., & Li, B. (in press). A comprehensive review of thermoelectric technology: materials, applications, modelling and performance improvement. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 65, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rser.2016.07.034

Thermoelectric (TE) technology is regarded as alternative and environmentally friendly technology for harvesting and recovering heat which is directly converted into electrical energy using thermoelectric generators (TEG). Conversely, Peltier coolers... Read More about A comprehensive review of thermoelectric technology: materials, applications, modelling and performance improvement.

Effect of resistive load on the performance of an organic Rankine cycle with a scroll expander (2016)
Journal Article
Zhua, J., Chen, Z., Huang, H., & Yan, Y. (2016). Effect of resistive load on the performance of an organic Rankine cycle with a scroll expander. Energy, 95, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.energy.2015.11.048

An experimental investigation is performed for an organic Rankine cycle system with different electrical resistive loads. The test rig is set up with a small scroll expander-generator unit, a boiler and a magnetically coupled pump. R134a is used as t...
