In this paper, a mathematical model of the interconnected combined cooling, heating, and power (ICCHP) system is first constructed, and three operation strategies, namely following electric load (FEL), following thermal load (FTL), and following hybrid electric-heating load (FHL), are considered. The combined performance index (CPI) of the two CCHP systems under interconnected and independent operation is calculated based on the conventional split-supply (SP) system by combining the strategies. Subsequently, a load characterization parameter (the time interval at which the load is shifted along the time axis) is proposed to further investigate the effect of load difference on the performance of the ICCHP system. The results indicate that the system performance of CCHP systems with different building users in the interconnected mode of operation is improved compared to the independent mode of operation, which is mainly due to the energy complementary characteristics between different load demands and operation strategies. In particular, when both CCHP systems are operated with the FTL strategy, the CPI of the systems in the three interconnection scenarios improves the most compared to when they are operated independently, which are 9.14 %, 9.37 %, and 5.02 %, respectively. Overall, when CCHP systems for two different building users operate interconnected, the reduction in the difference in load peak and valley durations results in a reduction in ICCHP system performance.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9658,"journal":{"name":"Case Studies in Thermal Engineering","volume":"73 ","pages":"Article 106509"},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144329809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study of thermodynamic analysis of ternary fuel with advanced Machine learning model provides valuable insights and adds significant outcomes to existing analysis. The current work deals with performance and sustainability of binary (diesel-biodiesel) and ternary (diesel-biodiesel-ethanol) fuel blends in a single-cylinder engine. Engine experiments were conducted using a structured design of experiments (DOE) approach, followed by thermodynamic analyses to evaluate key performance parameters, including exergy efficiency, brake thermal efficiency (BTE), and sustainability index. To optimize fuel parameters, the Desirability Function Approach (DFA) integrated with Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was employed. Additionally, advanced machine learning (ML) techniques were utilized to predict these performance characteristics. Notably, the binary blend demonstrated superior performance, achieving a 3.76 % higher BTE, 5.62 % higher exergy efficiency, and a 1.56 % increase in the sustainability index compared to conventional fuel. However, the inclusion of ethanol in the ternary blend (45 % Diesel–45 % Biodiesel–10 % Ethanol) resulted in a slight reduction in the sustainability index, which reached a peak value of 1.28 under full-load conditions. Interestingly, both sustainability index and exergy efficiency exhibited a consistent increase with rising engine load. At 5.2 kW, the blend BDE50 exhibits lower thermal efficiency than D100 and BDE10 by about 14.06 % and 7.36 %. Also, BDE50 blend exhibits lower exergy efficiency than D100 and BDE10 by about17.01 % and 11.66 % respectively.

When comparing predictive models, the ML model demonstrated superior accuracy over RSM, as evidenced by higher R<sup>2</sup> values. Furthermore, desirability analysis confirmed the blends' strong performance and emission characteristics, achieving an optimal desirability rating of 0.777. Among the advanced ML models evaluated, XGBoost outperformed all others across multiple performance metrics, indicating its robustness in predicting fuel blend efficiency and sustainability.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9658,"journal":{"name":"Case Studies in Thermal Engineering","volume":"73 ","pages":"Article 106516"},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144335523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the heavy oil production performance of hot-water flooding (HWF) as a typical low-heat thermal-based EOR process for reducing the viscosity of heavy oil and improving its mobility was experimentally studied by using a 1-D cylindrical sandpacked physical model with the porosity and permeability of 35.0 % and 4.50 mD, respectively. A total of eight coreflooding tests with different injected water temperatures from 20 °C to 90 °C and injection rates from 0.5 cc/min to 5.0 cc/min were conducted to compare seven HWF tests and one conventional waterflooding (WF) test. In particular, the transient temperature vs. time data were measured at five different locations in the physical model during each HWF/WF test by using a high-precision thermocouple probe with five sensors. The measured in-situ temperature vs. hot-water (HW) injection time/volume data in the HWF tests at a low HW injection rate exhibited three distinct periods. Period I had a progressive increase in the temperature, which was followed by Period II with a decrease in the temperature and Period III at a stable temperature. The transition from Period I to Period II indicated possible HW breakthrough (BT). In contrast, the measured in-situ temperature was always increased with the HW injection volume in the HWF tests at the medium to high HW injection rates. It was found that the heavy oil recovery factor was always increased as the ambient temperature and HW temperature were increased. However, the HW injection rate needs to be optimized due to its dual opposite effects on the heavy oil production performance of HWF.

Although previous designs have improved heat sink performance, their complex geometries have resulted in high manufacturing costs. This study introduces four novel plate-fin heat sink configurations—fillet, chamfer, step, and concave fillet—designed for enhanced manufacturability. A conjugate heat transfer model was employed to analyze forced convection heat transfer over a Reynolds number (Re) range of 500–5000, with laminar and turbulence models validated against experimental data to ensure accuracy near the interface surface. The results indicate that the k-ω turbulence model achieved excellent predictive accuracy, with an average experimental error of less than 5.07 %. Moreover, the fillet, chamfer, step, and concave fillet plate-fin heat sinks exhibited thermal enhancement efficiencies exceeding those of conventional designs at the Re = 5000 by 17.3 %, 15.9 %, 0.8 and 4.6 %, respectively. However, the step plate-fin heat sink did not yield thermal performance improvements despite a lower friction factor than the conventional design. To support future heat sink development, the optimized t/R and t/C ratios were determined to be 2.0 and 1.2 for the fillet and chamfer plate-fin heat sinks, facilitating maximum enhancement of both design and manufacturing processes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9658,"journal":{"name":"Case Studies in Thermal Engineering","volume":"73 ","pages":"Article 106529"},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144322539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
