Stirling engine — Alpha type Stirling engine. There are two cylinders. The expansion cylinder (red) is maintained at a high temperature while the compression cylinder (blue) is cooled. The passage between the two cylinders contains the regenerator … Wikipedia
Ocean thermal energy conversion — Temperature differences between the surface and 1000m depth in the oceans Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) uses the difference between cooler deep and warmer shallow or surface ocean waters to run a heat engine and produce useful work,… … Wikipedia
Compressed-air energy storage — (CAES) refers to the compression of airto be used later as energy source. At utility scale, it can be stored during periods of low energy demand (off peak), for use in meeting periods of higher demand (peak load). Alternatively it can be used to… … Wikipedia
Compressed air energy storage — Conceptual representation of the compressed air energy storage concept. Off peak (low cost) electrical power compresses air into an underground air storage “vessel” (the Norton mine), and later the air feeds a gas fired turbine generator complex… … Wikipedia
Stirling cycle — This article is about the real Stirling cycle. For the idealized Stirling cycle , see the Stirling engine article. IntroductionThe Stirling cycle is a thermodynamic cycle that describes the general class of Stirling devices. This includes the… … Wikipedia
Intercooler — For the Australian rock group, see Intercooler (band). An intercooler (original UK term, sometimes aftercooler in US practice), or charge air cooler, is an air to air or air to liquid heat exchange device used on turbocharged and supercharged… … Wikipedia
EcoCute — The EcoCute is an energy efficient heat pump that uses both electricity and heat extracted from the air to heat water for domestic use. Instead of the more conventional ammonia or haloalkane gases, EcoCute uses carbon dioxide as a refrigerant.… … Wikipedia
Compressed air car — Tata/MDI OneCAT A compressed air car is a car that uses a motor powered by compressed air. The car can be powered solely by air, or combined (as in a hybrid electric vehicle) with gasoline, diesel, ethanol, or an electric plant with regenerative… … Wikipedia
