Comparative assessment of various chlorine family thermochemical cycles for hydrogen production
Balta, Mustafa Tolga; Dinçer, İbrahim; Hepbaşlı, Arif (Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2016)This study deals with a comparative assessment of various chlorine family cycles, namely copper chlorine (CuCl), magnesium-chlorine (MgCl), iron-chlorine (Fe-Cl) and vanadium-chlorine (V-Cl) cycles, which are driven by ... -
Development of sustainable energy options for buildings in a sustainable society
Balta, M. Tolga; Dinçer, İbrahim; Hepbaşlı, Arif (Elsevıer Scıence Bv, 2011)In this study, a building with a volume of 392 m(3) and a net floor area of 140 m(2) is considered as a case study with the indoor and exterior air temperatures of 20 degrees C and -15 degrees C, respectively. For heating ... -
Energy and exergy analyses of magnesium-chlorine (Mg-Cl) thermochemical cycle
Balta, M. Tolga; Dinçer, İbrahim; Hepbaşlı, Arif (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2012)In this paper, we conduct energy and exergy analyses of the magnesium-chlorine (Mg-Cl) thermochemical cycle for hydrogen production and examine the respective cycle energy and exergy efficiencies. We also undertake a ... -
Exergoeconomic analysis of a hybrid copper-chlorine cycle driven by geothermal energy for hydrogen production
Balta, Mustafa Tolga; Dinçer, İbrahim; Hepbaşlı, Arif (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011)In this study, we conduct an exergy, cost, energy and mass (EXCEM) analysis of a copper-chlorine thermochemical water splitting cycle driven by geothermal energy for hydrogen production. We also investigate and illustrate ... -
Experimental exergoeconomic assessment of a desiccant cooling system
Hürdoğan, Ertac; Büyükalaca, Orhan; Balta, M. Tolga; Hepbaşlı, Arif; Yılmaz, Tuncay (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2013)Desiccant cooling has become a well established technology in most parts of the world, especially recently in Turkey. The increased growth of the technology was caused by the contribution of refrigerants used in conventional ... -
Performance assessment of solar-driven integrated Mg-Cl cycle for hydrogen production
Balta, M. Tolga; Dinçer, İbrahim; Hepbaşlı, Arif (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)The present study develops a new solar energy system integrated with a Mg-Cl thermochemical cycle for hydrogen production and analyzes it both energetically and exergetically for efficiency assessment. The solar based ... -
A study on modeling and performance assessment of a heat pump system for utilizing low temperature geothermal resources in buildings
Hepbaşlı, Arif; Balta, Mustafa Tolga (2007)Low and moderate geothermal resources are found in most areas of the world. A very efficient way to heat and air-condition homes and buildings is the utilization of ground source heat pumps (GSHPs), also known as geothermal ... -
Thermodynamic analysis of geothermally driven high-temperature steam electrolysis system for hydrogen production
Balta, Mustafa Tolga; Dinçer, İbrahim; Hepbaşlı, Arif (Springer International Publishing, 2014)Hydrogen production by high-temperature steam electrolysis (HTSE) has been receiving increasing attention worldwide due to its high efficiency and carbon-free operation. Although it is still considered in its early ...
