A volume element model (VEM) for energy systems engineering
Emerson Dilay,José Viriato Coelho Vargas,Jeferson Avila Souza,Juan C. Ordonez,Sam Yang,André Bellin Mariano +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a volume element model (VEM) is presented for energy systems engineering, which combines the laws of conservation with available empirical and theoretical correlations to quantify the diverse types of flows that cross the system and produce a simplified tridimensional mathematical model.
Integrative thermodynamic optimization of a vapor compression refrigeration system based on dynamic system responses
Sam Yang,Juan C. Ordonez +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the internal structure (heat exchanger areas) of a dynamic vapor compression refrigeration system was optimized for maximum global system performance described by the coefficient of performance (COP), refrigeration rate, second law efficiency, and pull-down time.

Constructal vapor compression refrigeration (VCR) systems design
TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model and a structured procedure to optimize the internal structure (heat exchanger areas) and pressure ratio of a vapor compression refrigeration system so that the refrigeration rate, the coefficient of performance (COP), and second law efficiency are maximized.
