Abstract:Summary
The purpose of this research is to examine the performance assessment and multi‐objective optimization of a multigeneration energy systems that include power generation, cooling, and freshwater. The system under investigation is composed of a fuel cell, a multi‐effect desalination plant, an absorption chiller, a steam generator, and a thermoelectric generator. To do this, we employed thermodynamic modeling of the intended cycle to determine the optimal design points employing a genetic algorithm. Machi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
