About this ebook
Limited resources of fossil fuels and strict emission regulations have motivated efforts to increase the efficiency of energy systems. Waste heat recovery (WHR) is an important method for recovery and use of waste heat and, as a result, increasing the overall efficiency of energy system. The focus on WHR and interest in applications have grown dramatically in recent years due to a renewed attention on concerns related to energy systems. Although WHR is widely utilized in thermal systems, there is a need to ensure WHR systems are understood, especially in light of advances being made in the technology and its applications. Advanced Waste Heat Recovery: Technology, Analysis, and Applications presents the most recent technology trends and progress in the application of WHR methodologies as well as new analytical methods. This book presents WHR options available in various industries along with the means to use the waste heat, exploring various methods of simulation and optimization of heat recovery systems so that users can appreciate and choose the various options available depending on the type of system under consideration, all with the aim of developing and applying the best waste heat recovery technology. This book will be a welcomed resource for researchers, engineers, scientists, industry professionals, and students in the energy and heat transfer fields. • Explores recent developments in waste heat recovery systems• Covers the technical, economical, and environmental aspects of waste heat recovery systems• Examines a variety of practical waste heat recovery applications with illustrative examples
About the author
Samane Ghandehariun is an assistant professor at the School of Mechanical Engineering, Iran University of Science and Technology (IUST) in Tehran, Iran. She received her PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Ontario Institute of Technology in Canada. Before joining IUST in 2018, she had served for several years as a researcher and lecturer at the Clean Energy Research Laboratory, Ontario Tech University, and University of Alberta in Canada, working on modeling, techno-economic and life cycle assessment of various energy conversion and storage systems including heat recovery processes, and hydrogen production. Her areas of research expertise include dynamic modeling, energy, exergy, economic, and environmental analyses and multi-objective optimization of sustainable, renewable-energy-based, and heat recovery systems.Marc A. Rosen is a professor at Ontario Tech University (formally University of Ontario Institute of Technology) in Oshawa, Canada, where he served as founding Dean of the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. He is also the Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Energy and Environmental Engineering and the founding Editor-in-Chief of Sustainability. He has written numerous books and journal articles. Professor Rosen received the President's Award from the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering in 2012. He is an active teacher and researcher in sustainable energy, environmental impact of energy and industrial systems, and energy technology (including heat transfer and recovery, renewable energy and efficiency improvement). His work on exergy methods in applied thermodynamics has been pioneering and led to many informative and useful findings. He has carried out research on linkages between thermodynamics and environmental impact and ecology. Much of his research has been carried out for industry.
