In the face of increasing demand for hydrogen, a feasibility study is conducted on its production by using Renewable Energy Resources (RERs), especially from wind and solar sources, with latter preferring photovoltaic technology. The analysis performed based climate data Province Brindisi, Apulia, Italy. various types electrolyzers will be analyzed, ultimately choosing one that best suits case under consideration. technical aspect land consumption RER exploitation until 2050 analyzed Italian...
The optimization procedure adopted in the present investigation is based on Genetic Algorithms (GA) and allows different fitness functions to be simultaneously maximized. parameters optimized are related geometric features of combustion chamber, which ranges variation very wide. For all investigated configurations, bowl volume squish-to-bowl ratio were kept constant so that compression was same for chambers. This condition assures changes emissions caused by variations only. spray injection...
Fossil fuels are the most widely used resource for energy production. Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions correlated with climate change, and therefore these must be reduced in future. It is possible by means of many different technologies, one promising seems to oxyfuel combustion. This process, oxygen recirculating gas, produces a concentrated stream CO2 water. In recent years, scientists carried out research studies on but sufficient level knowledge was not yet reached exploit great potential...
