Performance comparison of thermoelectric generators with Extremum seeking control and incremental conductance MPPT methods (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Twaha, S., Zhu, J., & Yan, Y. (2017). Performance comparison of thermoelectric generators with Extremum seeking control and incremental conductance MPPT methods.

Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) are used for converting heat into electricity, environmentally friendly, without moving parts and with less complexity. One of the problems with TEG is that it has low efficiency and therefore it is necessary to harve...

Theoretical analysis of a membrane-based cross-flow liquid desiccant system (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Bai, H., Chen, Z., Xu, H., & Zhu, J. (2016). Theoretical analysis of a membrane-based cross-flow liquid desiccant system.

Liquid desiccant air dehumidification has become one of the most widely used dehumidification technologies with advantages of high efficiency, no liquid condensate droplets and capability of energy storage. In this paper a cross-flow mathematical mod... Read More about Theoretical analysis of a membrane-based cross-flow liquid desiccant system.

Experimental study of a membrane-based dehumidification cooling system
Conference Proceeding
Chen, Z., Bai, H., Ye, Z., & Zhu, J. (in press). Experimental study of a membrane-based dehumidification cooling system.

Membrane-based liquid desiccant dehumidification has attracted increasing interests with elimination of solution droplets carryover problem. A membrane-based hybrid liquid desiccant dehumidification cooling system is developed in this study, which ha...

Power conditioning of thermoelectric generated power using dc-dc converters: a case study of a boost converter
Conference Proceeding
Twaha, S., Zhu, J., & Yan, Y. (in press). Power conditioning of thermoelectric generated power using dc-dc converters: a case study of a boost converter.

The near exhaustion of non-renewable energy resources such as fossil fuels followed by disastrous climatic changes have alerted the world to invest in alternative energy sources. Thermoelectric (TE) technology is responsible for innovating TE devices...
