However, the widespread adoption of these systems is impeded by technical challenges, particularly the rise in panel temperature and constraints on operation during night hours. The present research aims to explore the effect of coolant flow rate and solar radiation on the electrical output and thermal output of PV, PVT, salt hydrate integrated PVT system (PVT-SH), and modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes infused salt hydrate integrated PVT (PVT-SHMM) systems. Additionally, the study examines the heat transfer analysis of a fabricated PVT system incorporated serpentine flow thermal absorber and modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes infused salt hydrate phase change materials (PCMs). In this experiment, water was used as a cooling fluid, with a flow rate of 0.008 to 0.023 kg s⁻¹ and irradiation of 400 to 800 W m⁻². The findings show that the thermophysical properties of formulated nanocomposite have significantly improved, and the thermal conductivity of nanocomposites improved up to 97.2% compared to pure salt hydrate. The pressure drops enhancement increases become more pronounced at the higher mass flow rate, primarily because of the outlet's elevated viscosity of the cooling fluid. As the water flow rate increases, the heat removal factor exhibited 1.06 times rise, with relatively lower values in turbulent flow regions than in laminar flow conditions. Furthermore, the investigation notes a substantial decrease in panel temperature, an increase in electrical power with higher flow rates, and a higher heat gain at lower flow rates. Thus, the experimental findings confirm that integrating SH and SHMM into the PVT system significantly enhances its performance, allowing stored heat energy to be utilized during periods of unavailable solar energy.</p>","PeriodicalId":678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry","volume":"149 24","pages":"14643 - 14662"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142890114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper explores the connections between the modeling these two flow types and reveals that frictional isentropic flow can be achieved if the heat generated by friction is removed from the flow. This is, in fact, a polytropic flow, which is made isentropic by heat extraction. The study also presents a new description and solution of adiabatic flow, which is not isentropic due to friction, but no heat loss is considered in this work. Adiabatic frictional flow is implemented by extending the application of the adiabatic exponent (k). The adiabatic exponent (k) is naturally used to describe the isentropic or adiabatic state changes of ideal gases. During adiabatic state changes, the entropy of the ideal gas remains unchanged if the state change occurs without internal friction, without internal thermal expansion and without external energy absorption or loss. This means it is no longer an isentropic change of state if there is internal friction in the fluid. The adiabatic change of state without external heat input is therefore not necessarily isentropic. In common terms, a distinction is not always made between adiabatic and isentropic state changes. This paper expands on the use of the adiabatic exponent to describe frictional flows. Further, the paper outlines the possibility of using the exponent k to describe polytropic flows, which, of course, are by no means isentropic, but can be made mathematically so if one can compensate for internal heat generation by external heat extraction.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry","volume":"149 24","pages":"14781 - 14789"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142890514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clarifying the parallel reactions involved in the process of coal oxidation and spontaneous combustion could provide a new perspective on CSC. The coal–oxygen composite reaction processes of three bituminous coals were analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). By establishing a parallel reaction model through multimodal Gaussian fitting, we conclude that the process of coal oxidation and spontaneous combustion involves water evaporation, oxygen adsorption, thermal decomposition, gas phase combustion and solid-phase combustion. These five parallel reactions collectively control the mass and heat changes of coal. The results demonstrate that the ratio of heat intensity to mass is more sensitive to temperature changes in a lower metamorphic coal, which is more likely to undergo gas phase combustion. In the reaction stage dominated by the oxygen adsorption reaction, the apparent activation energies of coal samples, from low to high metamorphic grade, are 60.8, 46.6 and 42.4 kJ mol⁻¹, respectively. Consequently, a higher metamorphic coal is more prone to undergoing the oxygen adsorption reaction.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry","volume":"149 24","pages":"14741 - 14751"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142889528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results suggest that propane ignition is influenced by two factors: thermal decomposition and heat conduction.

At external wall temperatures of 800 K, 1000 K, 1200 K and 1400 K, as the temperature intensity increases, heat propagates more rapidly through the tank's shell.

The proposed analysis focuses on the hybrid nanofluid comprised of magnesium oxide (MgO) and zirconium dioxide (ZrO₂) in water which boosts the thermal conductivity along with the performance of the fluid. The magnetized Williamson fluid is a particular type of non-Newtonian fluid that exhibits essential applications to biomedical engineering. The insertion of magnetization along with porosity suggests considering the dissipative heat impact associated with Joule and Darcy which energies the heat transport phenomena. The limitation of classical Fourier laws is addressed by the consideration of the Cattaneo–Christov heat flux framework along with the thermal radiation. The designed flow model with dimensional terms is transformed into a corresponding non-dimensional form by implementing similarity functions. Further, these transmuted equations are solved numerically via the shooting-based Runge–Kutta technique. The parametric analysis of the flow phenomena is obtained and arranged graphically. The validation with earlier investigation displays a valid association in particular scenarios. The main outcomes reveal that the resistivity characteristics produced by the interplay between permeability and magnetization regulate fluid velocity, especially when combined with the non-Newtonian Williamson parameter.
