In this study a novel design methodology for household refrigeration systems focused on both energy savings and cost … simulate the energy performance of the entire refrigeration system. The system simulation model was validated against … experimental data obtained for a single-door 300-l vertical freezer. It was found that the model predictions for the energy …

The aim of the study was to investigate as to whether piezoelectric energy harvesting could be a viable contributor to … a source of renewable energy for the future. Here, a keyboard usage study was conducted using a data gathering computer … found it was capable of producing 650 µJ of energy per keystroke. The results from this study suggest piezoelectric …

Design standards are carriers and creators of facts, enabling facts about product value to travel between groups, and … compared. However, when design standards are not consistent, facts about product value may not travel well, even when designs … in the nineteenth century, this paper demonstrates how inconsistent design standards (wire sizes) inhibited the travel of …
