Investigation of Heat Pump Technologies with Potential for Ultra-High Temperature Applications
This report provides a comprehensive investigation into heat pump (HP) technologies to achieve heat supply temperatures above 250°C, referred to as ultra-high-temperature heat pump (UHTHP). UHTHP, a low-carbon heat delivery and augmentation technology, offers an alternative to traditional combustion heating for decarbonizing high-temperature industrial processes. The scope of this review covers both mechanical and chemical […]
Coupling Chemical Heat Pump with Nuclear Reactor for Temperature Amplification by Delivering Process Heat and Electricity: A Techno-Economic Analysis
The energy economy is continually evolving in response to socio-political factors in the nature of primary energy sources, their conversions to useful forms, such as electricity and heat, and their utilization in different sectors. Nuclear energy has a crucial role to play in the evolution of energy economy due to its clean and non-carbon-emitting characteristics. […]
Preliminary Pilot-scale Study and Techno-economic Analysis of Chemical Heat Pump with Conventional Nuclear Reactors
The energy economy is continually evolving, particularly in terms of primary energy sources, their conversions to useful forms such as electricity and heat, and their utilization in different sectors, in response to socio-political factors. Because nuclear source is clean and non-carbon-emitting energy source, it is crucial to consider its role in the evolution of the […]
