Spring 2024
Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) are promising energy conversion devices that offer high efficiency and low environmental impact. In order to understand and accurately estimate the SOFCs performance, advanced modeling techniques are required due to SOFCs complicated multi-physics nature and complex...

Evaluation of the Thermo-Osmotic Energy Conversion (TOEC) Process for Harvesting Low-Grade Heat Energy
DownloadSpring 2024
The growing global demand for energy, coupled with the need for sustainable and efficient energy solutions, has driven the exploration of new energy sources. Low-grade heat, widely available but challenging to convert into usable forms of energy (such as electricity), is a focal point for...
