Effect of CO₂-based binary mixtures on the performance of radial-inflow turbines for the supercritical CO₂ cycles

Recently, the supercritical carbon dioxide (SCO₂) power cycle has become a hotspot in the field of energy-efficient utilization. The utilization of additives in the power cycle has been proven to be an effective way to improve the SCO₂ power cycle efficiency. As one of the core components of the system, the influence of...

Mechanical properties and healing efficiency of 3D-printed ABS vascular based self-healing cementitious composite: Experiments and modelling

Cracking is one of the main causes for deterioration of concrete structures. Self-healing concrete with 3D-printed vascular networks has excellent potential for autonomous self-healing. This approach is scarcely investigated: no studies have been devoted to the influence of printing parameters on the properties of vascular based self-healing...
