Fundamental characteristics in power generation by heat engines on ocean thermal energy conversion (Construction of finite-time thermodynamic model and effect of heat source flow rate)

Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) is a system to convert the thermal energy stored as the vertical temperature gradient in the ocean into the electricity. The authors have proposed a theoretical thermodynamic model using a reversible heat engine to calculate the available thermal energy, exergy...
