1. Overview: 2. Research Background: The increasing need to reduce CO2 and SO2 emissions due to climate change necessitates improvements in electric vehicle efficiency. While Brushless Direct Current (BLDC) motors are widely used in EVs due to their high power density, efficiency, and reliability, their operational lifespan is limited by high internal heat generation and
1. Overview: 2. Background: High-brightness white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are very promising in many new illumination applications. LED light sources offer advantages such as long lifespan, fast response speed, environmental friendliness (mercury-free), and a color temperature (5500K-6000K) closer to natural light than xenon sources (4000K). The increasing use of LEDs in automotive lighting (interior lights,
1. Overview: 2. Research Background: The research addresses the growing global energy demand, projected to increase by 33% by 2050 [1]. A significant portion of energy is wasted as low-grade waste heat in industries like manufacturing and power generation [2, 4]. Conventional waste heat recovery (WHR) methods using heat exchangers often face challenges such as
1. Overview: 2. Background: Heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) systems consume a significant portion of residential and commercial building energy. Reducing refrigerant charge to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions is a crucial objective. Traditional heat exchangers (HXs) using round tubes and fins have limitations in performance improvement and require further miniaturization to meet reduced refrigerant
1. Overview: 2. Background: The paper begins by highlighting the increasing concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) since the 1900s, primarily due to the combustion of fossil fuels in internal combustion engines (ICEs). Transportation is a significant contributor to these emissions. Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) are presented as promising solutions to reduce

Imran Zahid ab, M. Farhan a, M. Farooq a, M. Asim a, M. Imran c Abstract Electronic devices are being used extensively for different applications, where the thermal management of these devices is still a critical challenge due to rapid miniaturization, high heat flux and constantly rising temperature. Phase change materials (PCMs) based thermal management is adopted, but the low thermal conductivity limits their use in temperature-controlled electronic devices. Nano-enhanced phase change materials

The addition of La to Al–Ce–Ni-based alloy system only reacts with Ce synergistically to promote the formation of the Al11(Ce,La)3 intermetallic phase as predicted by CALculation
