CFD-Simulation Assisted Design of Elastocaloric Regenerator Geometry

CFD-Simulation Assisted Design of Elastocaloric Regenerator Geometry

Elastocaloric cooling is a promising alternative to conventional cooling using the vapour compression cycle, with potentially higher theoretical exergy efficiency. Nevertheless, there is a number of challenges to be tackled before the technology can be commercially available world-wide. In this stud...
