Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) produces electricity using the temperature difference between warm surface and cold deep-sea water. OTEC systems in literature only limitedly consider seasonal seawater temperature<br/>variations and thus might not be adequately sized for off-design conditions. This potentially leads to techno-economically...

Heat pumps can efficiently upgrade waste heat from the industry and in that way reduce emissions. One of the main reasons why heat pumps are not applied to a greater extent in industry are large payback periods. Compression–resorption heat pumps (CRHP) enhanced by wet compression are considered a very promising option that can have higher...

Ionic liquids (ILs), as novel absorbents, draw considerable attention for their potential roles in replacing water or LiBr aqueous solutions in conventional NH<sub>3</sub>/H<sub>2</sub>O or H<sub>2</sub>O/LiBr absorption refrigeration or heat pump cycles. In this paper, performances of 9 currently investigated NH<sub>3</sub>/ILs pairs are...
