Chinese scientists crack code for heat engines with max power and efficiency
A recent study led by Chinese scientists has challenged the hundreds-of-year-old myth that a heat engine can achieve both ...
MIT says its new solid-state thermophotovoltaic heat engine can harvest more energy from heat than the average steam turbine, at a fraction of the cost and using no moving parts. Huge implications for ...
As the world battles rising inflation, a cost-of-living crisis, climate change and more, it’s clear that the fossil-fueled status quo is not working. Fossil fuels may have seemed like the crutch we ...
