Thermoelectric devices are promising for capturing and converting waste heat it into useful electricity. Conventional devices ...

Thermoelectric conversion devices offer a promising route for sustainable heat-to-energy conversion. They are particularly attractive for recovering energy from waste heat, such as that produced by ...

Spark plugs deliver a jolt of electricity to start ignition in gasoline engines. Glow plugs warm diesel engines so that their fuel will auto-ignite.

Okay, CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) might have uncovered the Higgs boson and helped redefine our concept of physical ...

We install a simple engine heat exchanger that turns wasted engine heat into warm air for the cabin. It runs whenever the engine is on, costs almost nothing to operate, and adds serious comfort in ...

Karman Industries says it has developed a cooling system that uses SpaceX rocket engine technology to rein in the ...

When someone takes a shower at a new apartment complex in Washington, D.C., the water is heated in part by a brewery downstairs. The mixed-use development—part of a larger new neighborhood called the ...

Stockholm, Sweden-based waste heat recovery system specialist Climeon AB has marked another milestone. A Climeon HeatPower 300 system that will be installed on a landmark NovaAlgoma Cement Carriers ...

Finland’s heat pump company Calefa Oy has launched a new waste heat-powered steam heat pump. Dubbed AmbiSteam, the modular, turnkey system can reportedly produce process steam above 5 bar. It has been ...

Scientists develop a microscopic heat engine that achieves 100% efficiency, accomplishing what seemed impossible. A new theoretical design describes a tiny heat engine that can convert all of the heat ...

Waste heat recovery systems are developed to harness the exhaust gas heat of engines and improve the overall efficiency of the engine. Organic and inorganic Rankine cycle systems are subject of ...

Fuel-agnostic and suitable for newbuilds and retrofit, Organic Rankine Cycle waste heat recovery systems are making headway as an energy-efficiency measure. Market prospects are looking so good for ...
