The research involves a novel integration of a steam power plant (STP) with an industrial CB plant (CBP) using Aspen Plus simulation software. Comparative exergetic performance analyses of the system were conducted with this tool, while the Engineering Equation Solver (EES) was used to evaluate the exergoeconomic modelling of the plant. Additionally, environmental sustainability indicators were determined. The integrated plant system delivered CB capacity of 1817 kg/s, converted 98.03% of CB feedstocks with a purification value of 99.25% and produced 195 MW of electricity, significantly improving plant efficiency. The overall energy and exergy efficiencies for the integrated system are computed as 98.75% and 80.40%, respectively, with the STP contributing to the overall plant improvement. About 50% of the produced exergy was destroyed, with the CB combustor accounting for 48% of the combined plant exergetic destruction. Despite a substantial waste–exergy ratio from CBP, the integration of the STP increased the system’s exergetic sustainability index (ESI) by 18%. The exergoeconomic analysis highlighted the highest cost of destruction in the combustor and evaluated the evaporator as the least exergoeconomic factor driver. Components with potential exergetic and cost destruction improvements were identified. In conclusion, integrating power generation units with CB production plants can markedly reduce thermal heat waste in the CBP and enhance integrated plant environmental performance.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14051,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Energy Research","volume":"2025 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/er/6905764","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143884232","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}

The iodine–sulfur (I–S) thermochemical cycle stands out for its high efficiency and scalability in water-splitting hydrogen production, with the hydrogen iodide (HI) decomposition reaction being the critical step governing overall hydrogen yield. Existing HI decomposition reactors often rely on energy-intensive electric heating, which compromises system efficiency and economic viability. To address this limitation, this study proposes a novel shell-and-tube heat exchanger reactor utilizing high-temperature helium gas as a sustainable heat source, integrated with a catalytic reaction zone employing activated carbon. The reactor combines a preheating section and a catalytic decomposition section to optimize heat transfer and reaction kinetics. Using Ansys Fluent–based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, the impacts of structural parameters (reactor length, tube diameter, and residence time) and operational conditions (helium flow rate) on HI conversion efficiency were systematically investigated. Results demonstrate that increasing helium flow rate (up to 60 kg/h), reactor length (1450 mm), and tube diameter (38 mm) significantly enhances HI decomposition rates, achieving a 27.28% conversion efficiency and 1.364 Nm<sup>3</sup>/h hydrogen output. Notably, tube diameter emerged as the most influential design parameter due to its dual role in heat transfer area and residence time modulation.

In light of the inadequacy in system modeling and control strategy formulation within existing relevant studies, this paper establishes the system power flow model to quantify the energy transfer processes and consumption, encompassing the closed power supply circuit model and grid–battery hybrid power flow model. By analyzing the system model and operating scenarios, it is evident that long-distance transportation leads to significant grid power losses. Moreover, in multivehicle scenarios, sudden load fluctuations can pose risks to grid power supply stability. To enhance the economic efficiency and stability of the system, a globally optimal grid–battery hybrid control strategy (GBHCS) is designed, employing the battery state of charge (SOC) as the state variable and the battery’s charge–discharge power as the control variable. The results of the strategy validation demonstrate that the GBHCS achieves a rational allocation of grid and battery power during different driving phases. In the single-vehicle scenario, the proposed control strategy demonstrates significant efficiency improvements, achieving reductions of over 2% in total grid energy consumption and a remarkable 50% decrease in grid energy losses compared to the conventional whole-process grid direct drive approach under various high-speed cruise cycles. In multivehicle scenarios, the control strategy not only enhances grid energy efficiency and maintains SOC balance across vehicles but also protects the grid from adverse effects caused by pantograph–catenary contact inrush currents.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14051,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Energy Research","volume":"2025 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/er/8864811","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143871688","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}

The need to pay attention to the turbine placement and the advantage of waste heat recovery from energy resources also increased the importance of the issue. In this study, the potential of integrating waste heat resources of a steam power plant is explored to increase the overall efficiency of a solar chimney power plant (SCPP). The effects of utilizing expelled heat from wet cooling towers and stack’s flue gas are taken as waste resources and are numerically studied on preheating the inlet air of the collector of the SCPP. The influences of designing the proper geometry of the flue gas chimney inside the collector are studied on the air entering the main chimney of the SCPP and the height of the flue gas chimney on the output power. The impact of allocating the semitransparent walls for flue gas chimney is analyzed on the gas temperature and the overall efficiency of the SCPP. Three-dimensional numerical simulations are adopted to contribute to a direct reduction in water consumption in wet condensers and an indirect reduction in fuel consumption of the steam turbine power plant. Based on numerical results, the proper vertical position of the turbine showed the pronounced effect on the output power of the SCPP. The choice of adding simultaneously radiators and flue gas chimney on the output power of the SCPP has become more important than that achieved by the addition of only radiators in all flue gas chimney heights. Ultimately, identifying the best turbine position and the most effective flue gas chimney height led to a 214.1% increase in the overall efficiency of the hybrid SCPP compared to the conventional Manzanares SCPP.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14051,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Energy Research","volume":"2025 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/er/9958191","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143861883","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}

This study addresses these gaps by proposing an integrated optimization strategy that combines day-ahead predictive scheduling with intraday adjustments, leveraging a second-order equivalent resistance–capacitance (RC) model to manage ESS charging and discharging.
