Hydrogen is a promising candidate, but its feasibility depends on selecting the optimal production pathway, addressing nitrogen oxides (NO<sub>x</sub>) emissions, and managing hydrogen leakage. This study comprehensively evaluates six hydrogen production pathways for retrofitted long-range hydrogen aircraft, assessing their emissions, operating costs, and environmental-cost trade-offs. The results show that without NO<sub>x</sub> mitigation, hydrogen-powered aircraft emit 8.6% to 58.6% more equivalent of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>eq) than Jet-A even under the most favorable pathway (renewable electrolysis, ERE). Additionally, hydrogen aircraft’s direct operating cost is significantly higher, with ERE increasing costs by 91% in medium twin-aisle aircraft and up to 132% in very large aircraft. A NO<sub>x</sub> sensitivity analysis indicates that at least 15% NO<sub>x</sub> reduction is required for medium twin-aisle aircraft to achieve lower emissions than Jet-A, while larger aircraft need reductions of 60–75%. The Eco-Efficiency Index confirms that even with NO<sub>x</sub> mitigation, hydrogen aircraft remain less cost-efficient than Jet-A. Furthermore, hydrogen leakage penalties are higher in ERE for long-range aircraft, highlighting additional sustainability challenges.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37131,"journal":{"name":"Energy Conversion and Management-X","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 100996"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143800655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bhasan Char, a remote island in the Bay of Bengal, faces significant challenges in providing sustainable and reliable energy to support its population of over 100,000 Rohingya refugees. For off-grid regions, Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems present a viable and environmentally sustainable electrification solution by integrating multiple energy sources. This study investigates the design, simulation, and optimization of HRES-based power generation to meet the comprehensive electricity needs of Bhasan Char. Using HOMER Pro software, six different hybrid energy models were developed and analyzed to evaluate their technical, economic, and environmental viability. Throughout the optimization process, peak loads of 2,287 kW, 470 kW, and 2,180 kW were considered for residential, community, and deferrable uses, respectively. Out of the six models evaluated, the most cost-effective configuration was found to be PV/Biogas/Diesel/Wind/Battery. This optimal solution comprises 3.5 MW of PV, 0.5 MW of biogas generator, 3.2 MW of diesel power, 1.98 MW of wind, 8.53 MWh battery storage capacity and can generate 14,893,809 kWh of energy annually, which is sufficient to meet the entire community’s energy requirements. With a Cost of Energy of $0.195/kWh and a Net Present Cost of roughly $34.9 million, the system presents an economically viable solution. The substantial 80.6 % penetration of renewable energy considerably reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, Sensitivity analyses were performed to explore the resilience of the proposed systems ensuring adaptability to future uncertainties. The research offers a viable model for rural electrification, providing valuable insights into deploying sustainable power solutions in isolated regions and supporting global objectives for energy transition.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37131,"journal":{"name":"Energy Conversion and Management-X","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 101004"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143800657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, higher alcohols such as n-butanol (nB) and n-pentanol (Pn), which have high carbon content and are largely derived from non-edible sources, can be directly blended with diesel. These blends present significant economic and environmental advantages, making the study of high-carbon alcohol use in diesel engines increasingly important. This research focused on creating blends of waste cooking oil and n-pentanol with diesel fuel, preparing three binary and ternary mixtures: DF95WCO5 and DF65WCO20Pe20. The primary goal was to investigate the fundamental characteristics of these blends. However, challenges such as increased deposits, pollutant emissions, and reduced engine performance when using biodiesel have been noted. A detailed evaluation of combustion chamber deposit buildup and its impact on emissions and engine performance was carried out. The study employed diesel, waste frying oil, and n-pentanol blends. After 200 h of operation, engine injectors and pump pistons were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis. It was discovered that waste cooking oil binary mix fuel had a greater rate of carbon deposition generation than diesel fuel, with 89.68% for WCO and 80.01% for D100. By contrast, engine part deposition was reduced when n-pentanol was mixed with waste cooking oil as opposed to diesel fuel, with a deposition rate of 47.90% for n-pentanol. The results revealed notable surface structure changes on pistons with DF95WCO5 and n-pentanol blends. Wear debris concentration was reduced when using emulsified fuels, particularly in binary blends, while the ternary blend DF65WCO20Pe20 showed further reductions in Cadmium (Cd), Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), and Nickel (Ni) compared to pure diesel. The engine demonstrated lower viscosity and increased density when operated with these blended fuels. Experimental findings highlighted significant differences between biodiesel derived from used and fresh cooking oils, including reduced engine performance, higher carbon deposits, and accelerated metal degradation in key components of diesel engine lubricating oil.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37131,"journal":{"name":"Energy Conversion and Management-X","volume":"26 ","pages":"Article 100999"},"PeriodicalIF":7.1,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143800658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes an innovative approach for the first time that utilizes a high emissivity coating formulated from a blend of microsilica and graphene nanosheets to enhance the radiation heat dissipation inside the LAs, offering advantages of structural simplicity and cost-effectiveness. To elucidate the radiative heat transfer characteristics interacted with the oscillating flow within the LA, firstly, a CFD model was developed to analyse the oscillating flow coupled radiative heat transfer within a 1.5-kW LA. The effects of coating emissivity, backdrop temperature, dissipated heat by the components, and mean pressure on the heat transfer of the LA’s electromagnetic components were investigated. Numerical calculations indicate that the high emissivity coating reduces the average temperature of the coil adjacent to the permanent magnet, the permanent magnet itself, and the inner stator by approximately 10.0 K, while the temperature of the coils adjoining the outer housing and the outer stator decreases by about 4.2 K. Additionally, the efficacy of the high emissivity coating in enhancing the cooling of these components was significantly amplified under elevated heat generation conditions. Subsequently, an experimental test rig was built and the results showed that the high emissivity coating reduces the temperature of the coil and outer stator by 1.1 K and 0.2 K, respectively, increases the output electric power by 6.6 W, and improves thermal-to-electric efficiency by 0.3 % under the operating conditions with cooling water temperature of 298 K and mean pressure of 4.5 MPa.
