In the first scenario, three cases were introduced. In Case I, the battery heat is removed by the airflow. In Case II, the battery was cooled by PCM as well as air simultaneously. In Case III, the battery heat is fully absorbed by the PCM and then rejected to the ambient. In a battery cooling system, the effect of PCM depends on the C-rate and coefficient of heat transfer (CHT). For C-rate within 1C–10C and CHT lower than 30 W m<sup>−2</sup> K<sup>−1</sup>, calculations showed that Case III (which only uses PCM) provided better cooling than Case I (airflow) and Case II (airflow + PCM). At CHT = 10 W m<sup>−2</sup> K<sup>−1</sup>, Case III can cool the battery up to 17.28°C compared to Case I and up to 8.76°C compared to Case II. When CHT reaches 30 W m<sup>−2</sup> K<sup>−1</sup>, the superiority of Case III diminishes. In this case, Case III can cool the battery up to 11.5 and 5.5°C compared to Case I and Case II, respectively. In the second scenario, the question was answered under what conditions PCM is preferable to airflow in battery cooling. At C-rate = 1, up to CHT = 30 W m<sup>−2</sup> K<sup>−1</sup>, PCM is superior to airflow. When the C-rate rises, the competitive ability of PCM intensifies so that in C-rate = 5, PCM up to CHT = 60 W m<sup>−2</sup> K<sup>−1</sup> is preferable to airflow.

This study presents a comprehensive technoeconomic and environmental assessment of renewable energy–based hydrogen production systems, focusing on the coastal region of Marsa Matrouh, Egypt. In this regard, a fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (F-AHP) integrated with multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) is applied using four key criteria: commercial potential of hydrogen production, environmental impact of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) mitigation, economic benefit, and social acceptance. Also, the photovoltaic (PV), wind turbine (WT), and alkaline (ALK) electrolysis are effectively modeled using their first-order energy balance equations to estimate electricity and hydrogen output. The modeling approach is implemented via MATLAB simulation using the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) climate data of hourly solar radiation, temperature, and wind speed data to estimate energy output, hydrogen yield, and the levelized cost of hydrogen (LCOH). A case study is conducted in Marsa Matrouh, Egypt, to assess the technical and economic viability of five distinct scenarios: (SC<sub>1</sub>) 100% PV, (SC<sub>2</sub>) 100% WT, (SC<sub>3</sub>) 50% PV + 50% WT, (SC<sub>4</sub>) 70% PV + 30% WT, and (SC<sub>5</sub>) 30% PV + 70% WT. Results show that the 100% wind scenario (SC<sub>2</sub>) is optimal, delivering the highest annual energy (2417 MW h), hydrogen output (36 tons), CO<sub>2</sub> mitigation (769 tons/year), and the lowest LCOH ($2.66/kg), with the highest F-AHP score (0.5360).

In this hybrid scheme, the plasma pregenerates long-lived, soluble nitrogen intermediates (predominantly NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup>/NO<sub>2</sub><sup>−</sup>) from N<sub>2</sub>/H<sub>2</sub>O, which are subsequently electrochemically reduced to NH<sub>3</sub>. Using a dual-chamber H-cell (2.5 kV NTP, ~6–7 mA plasma current; −0.5 V vs. Ag/AgCl), we find that Ar plasma doubles NH<sub>3</sub> production relative to electrochemistry alone, and N<sub>2</sub> plasma provides a further approximately 50% increase. Acidic electrolytes are critical: 0.5 M H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> maximizes NH<sub>3</sub> yield, while tuning acid concentration balances NH<sub>3</sub> selectivity against HER. Humidifying the N<sub>2</sub> plasma increases nitrate from approximately 5400 to approximately 7100 ppm and boosts NH<sub>3</sub> by approximately 21%, consistent with enhanced formation of soluble nitrogen intermediates. Catalyst screening shows PtIr and Pd outperform Pt/C, NbN, and NbO<sub>2</sub>, indicating that in the plasma-assisted regime the rate-limiting step shifts from nitrate activation to hydrogenation, favoring catalysts that efficiently supply surface hydrogen. Time-resolved measurements reveal steady NH<sub>3</sub> accumulation with nonmonotonic NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup> evolution, reflecting a competition between plasma-driven formation and electroreduction. Under optimized conditions (N<sub>2</sub> plasma; 0.3 M–0.5 M H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub>), the Faradaic efficiency (FE) reaches up to 47%; total specific energy consumption for our present setup is approximately 73 kWh/kg NH<sub>3</sub>, dominated by the plasma input, indicating clear opportunities for reduction via high-frequency operation and reactor optimization.

While previous studies have explored various aspects of waste energy recovery, a comparative analysis of different bottoming configurations has been lacking. This research thoroughly studies the literature and investigates four primary bottoming cycles: the steam Rankine cycle (SRC), supercritical Brayton cycle (SBC), inverse Brayton cycle (IBC), and air bottoming cycle (ABC), with the aim of recovering waste energy from the topping GTC. To maximize energy recovery, two thermoelectric generators (TEGs) are employed to harness the waste heat from the main bottoming systems. The generated power from these systems is subsequently directed to a proton exchange membrane electrolyzer (PEME) for hydrogen production. The primary objective of this study is to identify the most cost-effective bottoming system for hydrogen production. Optimization results reveal that the SRC-based bottoming system achieves the highest exergy efficiency at 35.68%. However, it does not align well with economic considerations, exhibiting a total cost rate of $176.6/h, a unit cost of $36.63/GJ, and a specific cost of $0.2904/kWh. Furthermore, the produced hydrogen mass flow rate is 3.324 kg/s. In contrast, the IBC-based system emerges as the optimal configuration, boasting an exergy efficiency of 33.55%. This system offers a more economically favorable profile, featuring a total cost rate of $162.1/h, a unit cost of $26.68/GJ, and a specific cost of $0.2835/kWh. The IBC-based configuration distinguishes itself by presenting the lowest total cost rate, unit cost of outputs, and specific cost among the four considered configurations. At the optimum point, it can generate 500 kW of power and produce 2.207 kg/h of hydrogen.

The investigation of electronic band structure verifies the semiconducting characteristics of all three materials, with bandgap values between 0.769 and 1.365 eV. Assessments of optical properties reveal significant absorption in the visible and ultraviolet spectra, rendering these materials appropriate for optoelectronic applications. Thermoelectric study reveals that KCu<sub>3</sub>GeSe<sub>4</sub> possesses the figure of merit (ZT), around 0.75 at 900 K, indicating its suitability for thermoelectric applications. The elastic properties indicate mechanical stability, with KCu<sub>3</sub>GeSe<sub>4</sub> and RbCu<sub>3</sub>GeSe<sub>4</sub> demonstrating superior hardness and stiffness compared to CsCu<sub>3</sub>GeSe<sub>4</sub>. These findings offer significant insights for optimizing these materials for energy storage, optoelectronic, and thermoelectric applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":14051,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Energy Research","volume":"2025 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/er/2992478","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145366817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
