“…It is expected with temperature differences around 150 • C, TE module have a 3% of efficiency (He et al, 2015), and considering a efficiency of 7.4% for HP, results in 45 W of power per dry cask. There are several articles that deal with very different heat harnessing technologies through HPs (El-Genk and Tournier, 2004;Fan et al, 2017;Briggs and Gibson, 2017;Kim and Bang, 2018;Bess, 2008;Hine et al, 2004;Yuan et al, 2016;Shabgard et al, 2015;Gibson et al, 2009).…”

Recently, issues related to the effects (benefit or harm) of processing nuclear waste and its further use as fuel have been increasingly often raised in the scientific discussion. In this regard, the research aims to investigate issues related to the assessment of the economic potential of nuclear waste use, as well as the cooperation between states in the context of the reduction of risks associated with nuclear waste storage and processing. The research methodology is based on an integrated approach, including statistical, factor analysis, and the proposed system of performance indicators for managing spent nuclear fuel use. The research was carried out on the basis of materials from Russia and the EU countries. In the course of the study, a model of cooperation between states has been developed (based on the example of technologies and methods of processing nuclear waste used in the EU and Russia) according to the nuclear waste (spent nuclear fuel) management algorithm. The model considers the risks and threats associated with ecology and safety. The developments and other results described in the study should be used in further research devoted to the use of nuclear waste as heat-producing elements.

“…The gas-fired cold and hot electricity tri-connection technology is a comprehensive system with the ability to heat in winter and cool in summer using natural gas to drive the generator to generate electricity and recover the excess heat. The gas-fired combined cold, hot, and electric power supply system can realize the effective use of natural gas, alleviate the problem of power supply shortage, and provide safe and reliable electricity [7]. At present, the combined cold, hot, and electric power supply of gas-fired air conditioners is unstable [8].…”

In order to solve the problem that the auxiliary equipment of electric gas turbine can operate only by relying on external power, and realize the purpose that auxiliary equipment of electric gas turbine can operate independently without the external power grid, in this research, a management system of air source self-powered electric gas generator is proposed. Firstly, the process of the thermal energy management system of the air source self-powered electric gas generator is introduced, and the thermodynamic theory of the thermal energy management system of the air source self-powered electric gas generator is analyzed. Then, the experimental conditions of air source self-powered electric gas generator are introduced. Finally, the results of variable speed and terminal variable flow in heating condition and terminal variable flow in cooling condition of the thermal energy management system of air source self-powered electric gas generator are analyzed. The results show that whether the thermal energy management system of air source self-powered electric gas generator studied in this research is in heating or cooling conditions, both the output power of the engine and the power of the compressor increase with the increase of the rotating speed. It can be concluded from the variable flow results in heating conditions that the smaller the end flow is, the smaller the output power of the engine will be. In this way, the loss of heat transfer efficiency of the plate can be reduced as much as possible, and the users' demand for heat can be met.
