Waste heat is heat that is produced by a machine, or other process that uses energy, as a byproduct of doing work. All such processes give off some waste...

A waste heat recovery unit (WHRU) is an energy recovery heat exchanger that transfers heat from process outputs at high temperature to another part of...

heating, heat pumps and central solar heating are also used, as well as heat waste from factories and nuclear power electricity generation. District heating...

efficient use of fuel or heat, because otherwise-wasted heat from electricity generation is put to some productive use. Combined heat and power (CHP) plants...

shipped as a fully assembled unit from the factory. They can be used in waste heat or turbine (usually under 20 MW) applications. The packaged HRSG can have...

efficiency of various heat engines proposed or used today has a large range: 3% (97 percent waste heat using low quality heat) for the ocean thermal...

dedicated to the game. The Goodsprings Waste Heat Recovery Station opened in 2010, providing 7.5MW of energy from waste heat produced at a Kern River Pipeline...

modification of land surfaces while waste heat generated by energy usage is a secondary contributor. A study has shown that heat islands can be affected by proximity...

of combined heat and power (also called cogeneration) or waste heat recovery. Waste heat recovery is a process that captures excess heat that would normally...

as heat amplifier and refrigeration). Driven by a high-temperature heat source, the first type absorption heat pump extracts the heat of waste heat (waste...

A heat pump is a device that consumes work (or electricity) to transfer heat from a cold heat sink to a hot heat sink. Specifically, the heat pump transfers...

A heat exchanger is a system used to transfer heat between a source and a working fluid. Heat exchangers are used in both cooling and heating processes...

absorption cycle is used only where heat is more readily available than electricity, such as industrial waste heat, solar thermal energy by solar collectors...

Thermoelectric generators could be used in power plants and factories to convert waste heat into additional electrical power and in automobiles as automotive thermoelectric...

large part of the waste energy is in the form of heat that is released to the environment through coolant, fins etc. If somehow waste heat could be captured...

ownership of the SoC. Finally, waste heat from high energy consumption can damage other circuit components if too much heat is dissipated, giving another...

Waste-to-energy (WtE) or energy-from-waste (EfW) is the process of generating energy in the form of electricity and/or heat from the primary treatment...

The fluid allows heat recovery from lower-temperature sources such as biomass combustion, industrial waste heat, geothermal heat, solar ponds etc. The...

efficient waste management practice involving the recovery of embedded energy in the waste material. For example, burning the waste to produce heat (and electricity...

modules get larger as each layer must remove both the heat moved by the above layer and the waste heat of the layer. Requirements for thermoelectric materials:...

towers, which transfer waste heat to the atmosphere through evaporation and/or heat transfer cogeneration, a process where waste heat is recycled for domestic...

Incineration of waste materials converts the waste into ash, flue gas and heat. The ash is mostly formed by the inorganic constituents of the waste and may take...

remarkable attention to recover waste heat from various industries and to optimize the units which are used to absorb heat from waste gases. Thus, these attempts...

heat/power conversion system. The heat is supplied externally to a closed loop with some of the heat added being converted to work and the waste heat...

An exhaust heat recovery system turns waste heat energy in exhaust gases into electric energy for batteries or mechanical energy reintroduced on the crankshaft...

subtract the heat of vaporization of the water from the higher heating value. This treats any H2O formed as a vapor that is released as a waste. The energy...
