OTEC condenser heat exchanger analysis: Modelling and model validation of the performance of an ammonia-water OTEC condenser heat exchanger using advanced condenser models

The increasing demand in renewable energy motivates the search for new renewable energy sources. The ocean is a vast energy source of both thermal and kinetic energy, however methods to harness this energy haven’t reached maturity yet. Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC), a method to harness the thermal energy of the ocean, could change this....
