Abstract :
During the operation of alkaline fuel cells (AFCs), a significant amount of waste heat is generated, which has negative impacts on energy utilization and the environment. To improve energy efficiency, cost savings, environmental sustainability, and industrial practices, an effective approach is proposed to employ thermogalvanic cells (TGCs) for electric power generation by harvesting low-grade exhaust heat produced in AFCs. A mathematical model of the AFC-TGC hybrid system is established, taking into account the three overpotential losses in AFCs and the irreversible heat losses in TGCs. Based on this thermal -electric coupled model, we investigate the hybrid system's output performance characteristics and optimal parameter design. The calculated results indicate that the hybrid system achieves a considerable increase of 19.72% in maximum power density from 247.07 W m-2 to 295.80 W m-2 and 5.71% in conversion efficiency from 10.16% to 10.74% compared to a single AFC, respectively. In addition, the output performance of the hybrid system can be further improved by adjusting system parameters such as the AFC's operating temperature, the length of each TGC cell, the heat sink temperature, and the thermal convection coefficient. More importantly, a comparative study of the maximum power density of AFC -based cogeneration systems reveals that the TGC demonstrates a remarkable ability to economically recover waste heat from the AFC, surpassing previously reported thermal energy utilization devices. This study provides important theoretical guidance for the optimal design and parametric analysis of AFC-TGC hybrid systems, thereby facilitating the development of high-performance energy cascade utilization systems based on AFC devices.

Abstract :
An efficient hybrid system integrating a direct carbon fuel cell (DCFC) with a vacuum graphene-anode thermionic converter (VGTC) is proposed for cogeneration. The VGTC efficiently recycles waste heat released from the DCFC and generate additional electricity, significantly improving energy utilization efficiency and economic performance. A comprehensive mathematical model is developed to quantitatively assess the thermodynamic performance of the hybrid system, taking into account the overpotential losses of the DCFC and the irreversible energy losses occurring within the system. The results show that at an operating temperature of 923 K, the hybrid system can achieve a maximum power density of 466 W/m2, which is approximately 1.34 times that of a single DCFC, indicating a significant improvement in output performance. Besides, the optimal operating region and parameter selection criteria for the hybrid system are determined using finite-time thermodynamic optimization theory. Furthermore, the effects of essential parameters on the output performance of the hybrid system, such as the operating temperature of the DCFC, the heat transfer coefficient, the Fermi level of graphene, the work function of the cathode, the thermal emissivity, and the reflectivity of the back mirror, are investigated. Finally, the comparative study shows that the proposed hybrid system outperforms other previously reported hybrid systems regarding output electric power and conversion efficiency due to the efficient high-grade waste heat recovery and energy conversion by the VGTC. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract :
Absorption carbon capture is currently the most commercialized technology and deemed as the vital solution to balance continued use of fossil fuels and carbon emission reduction. Nevertheless, its high energy cost remains the major concern for wide-scale application. Consequently, it is of great significance to address this issue by analyzing the underlying energy conversion mechanism, answering the pivotal question 'What characteristics lead to a superior absorbent?', and developing more efficient absorbent. In this paper, an irreversible decoupling model of absorption carbon capture system, consisting of a heat engine and a chemical pump, is innovatively established. Accordingly, key performance indicators are analytically derived and the optimal operation strategies of the system are explicitly determined. Notably, the matching of two subsystems leads to a novel insight into the heat and mass transfer interaction of absorbent, according to which the simulated results and the question concerning the best absorbent are thermodynamically interpreted and addressed, respectively. Additionally, the comparisons between the calculated optimal energy conversion efficiencies with experimental and simulated results are presented and discussed. Our findings may indicate the efficient pathway for developing advanced absorbent and provide instructing information for the design and operation of practical carbon capture systems. © 2024

Abstract :
Built-in method and straightforward adiabatic temperature change method have been widely used in the simulation investigation of Active Magnetic Regeneration Refrigeration (AMRR) cycle. Nevertheless, the difference between the abovementioned two approaches has rarely been dis-cussed. In this regard, a simulation study on the reciprocating packed bed magnetic refrigeration cycle is presented with the special emphasis on the influence of the different magnetocaloric effect evaluated methods, where Gd and water working as magnetic material and heat transfer fluid. With the help of Finite Element Method (FEM), the numerical solutions of the thermody-namic equations of Gd and water can be obtained. Utilizing the FEM, the two methods can lead to same results when the time interval approaches zero. For a comparatively large time interval, the accurate heat expelled to the high-temperature reservoir can be achieved via the straightforward adiabatic temperature change method while the accurate heat absorbing from the low -temperature reservoir can be obtained via the built-in method. Moreover, calculated Coeffi-cient of Performance (COP) via the straightforward adiabatic temperature change method is larger than that via the built-in method.

Abstract :
The exhaust heat released from SOFCs (solid oxide fuel cells) possesses tremendous energy that can be recovered for energy cascade utilization. Nevertheless, low conversion efficiency or power density limits the SOFC's high-grade waste heat recovery capabilities for the cogeneration of electric power. To address this challenge, a novel hybrid system coupling a SOFC with a GTEC (graphene-collector thermionic energy converter) is proposed, where the GTEC harvests the high-grade exhaust heat produced by the SOFC and generates extra electricity. It is found that the maximum power density of the hybrid system can reach 0.774 W/cm2 at 1073 K, which is 1.20 times higher than that of the sole SOFC, indicating that the hybrid system offers a considerable improvement in output performance. Additionally, the optimal operating conditions and major parameter designs of the hybrid system are determined from the perspective of finite -time thermodynamics. Choosing the optimal area ratio, increasing the SOFC operating temperature, enhancing the heat transfer coefficient, decreasing the thermal emissivity, and fabricating the perfect optical reflector can further improve the optimal performance of the hybrid system. Compared with other SOFC-based hybrid systems, the SOFC-GTEC provides better output performance, proving that the GTEC can more efficiently utilize the exhaust heat produced by SOFC than other energy harvesting devices. This work provides crucial theoretical guidance on the optimal designs and parametric analysis of SOFC-GTEC hybrid systems, thus paving the way towards developing high-performance SOFC cogeneration systems.

Abstract :
Heat transformers, also referred to as temperature boosters, draw considerable attention for the great potential in exploiting low-grade thermal energy. In this paper, a generic model of three-terminal heat transformer without reference to any specific heat-transfer law is established on the basis of the low-dissipation assumption. Accordingly, the optimum behaviors and parametric choices under two different parameter constraints are investigated and compared. Notably, the connection between overall time constraint and the presence of external heat leak for the three-terminal heat transformer is revealed. In addition, the Omega function based on the trade -off consideration is introduced to provide more practical evaluations. The performances of the three-terminal heat transformer operated at maximum Omega regime are derived and found to be less powerful but more efficient comparing with the associated maximum heating load regime. Moreover, the influences of dissipation symmetry on several key performance indicators are elaborated by using numerical calculation, which leads to the important results of the present paper, namely the performance bounds of coefficient of performance (COP) at maximum heating load and maximum Omega regimes. Finally, the reported COPs from previous researches are collected to illustrate the validity and practical significance of the proposed model and associated perfor-mance bounds.

Abstract :
The waste heat released by molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFCs) contains considerable energy that can be captured for electric power generation. Nonetheless, the current high-grade heat harvesting devices for the MCFC cogeneration of electrical power are still constrained by low power output or energy conversion. To address this challenge, we present a novel hybrid system that combines an MCFC and a graphene-collector thermionic generator (GCTG), in which the GCTG can efficiently harness the exhaust heat released from the MCFC and generate additional electricity. The results show that the hybrid system's maximum power density reaches 0.298 W/cm2, which is 1.6 times that of the sole MCFC at 923 K, demonstrating that the hybrid system delivers a significant boost in output performance. Furthermore, finite-time thermodynamics estimates the hybrid system's optimal operating regions and key parameter designs. The optimal performance of the hybrid system can be further improved by selecting the optimal area ratio, raising the MCFC operating temperature, strengthening the heat transfer coefficient, lowering the thermal emissivity of the thermionic emitter, and manufacturing the perfect optical reflector. The MCFC-GCTG outperforms other MCFC-based hybrid systems regarding output performance, demonstrating that GCTG can more effectively exploit the waste heat released from MCFCs than other heat recovery devices. This study offers valuable theoretical guidance for the strategic optimization of the MCFC-GCTG hybrid system, thereby paving a constructive strategy towards realizing advanced, high-performance MCFC cogeneration systems.

Abstract :
The extraordinary thermal-to-electricity conversion efficiency of thermally regenerative electrochemical cycle triggers interest in its reverse counterpart, namely thermally regenerative electrochemical refrigerator (TRER), a promising alternative to conventional cooling devices. Nevertheless, due to three fundamental obstacles, the practically feasible TRER model is still absent, which hinders the development of follow-up research. To break this bottleneck, heating by discharging and cooling by charging effects are innovatively utilized to construct TRER models where the electrochemical counterparts of traditional adiabatic compression and expansion processes, namely adiabatic pre-charging and pre-discharging processes, are proposed and introduced. Significantly, the maximum coefficient of performance (COP) and the COP at maximum cooling power are predicted to achieve up to 40% and 5% of Carnot COP, respectively for the given values of parameters. Moreover, the great potential for efficient refrigeration is highlighted by comparing the obtained results with various refrigeration systems. This work lays the foundation for further experimental investigations and opens a new avenue for constructing other novel electrochemical cycles.

Abstract :
The unusual electronic properties of 3-D topological Dirac semimetals have led to intensive research efforts focusing on their potential applications in high-performance electronic, photonic, and optoelectronic devices. In this work, we propose a conceptual design of thermionic energy converters (TECs) based on a Cd3As2 anode with significantly improved performance. Using the electronic properties of Cd3As2-an air-stable topological Dirac semimetal-from first-principle density functional theory (DFT) calculation, such a device can achieve a maximum output power density and conversion efficiency of 10.96 W/cm(2) and 57.29% at 1800 K, respectively. The advantages of topological Dirac anode over conventional metal- and graphene-based TECs are revealed. This work opens an exciting route toward high-performance energy converters via the union of topological material and thermionic devices.
