Study on the performance and optimization of a scroll expander driven by compressed air (2016)
Journal Article
Zhang, X., Xu, Y., Xu, J., Sheng, Y., Zuo, Z., Liu, J., …Huang, Y. (2017). Study on the performance and optimization of a scroll expander driven by compressed air. Applied Energy, 186(3), 347-358. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2016.06.004

The scroll expander has been widely studied in various energy systems for power generation and refrigeration. An experimental study of a scroll expander is carried out to examine its performance. Meanwhile, a quasi-dimensional numerical modelling is... Read More about Study on the performance and optimization of a scroll expander driven by compressed air.

Performance analysis of biofuel fired trigeneration systems with energy storage for remote households (2016)
Journal Article
Huang, Y., Wang, Y., Chen, H., Zhang, X., Mondol, J., Shah, N., & Hewitt, N. (2017). Performance analysis of biofuel fired trigeneration systems with energy storage for remote households. Applied Energy, 186(3), 530-538. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2016.03.028

Technical and economic modelling and performance analysis of biofuel fired trigeneration systems equipped with energy storage for remote households were carried out. To adapt the dynamic energy demand for electricity, heating and cooling, both electr...
