Thermodynamic Analysis of a Waste Heat Driven Vuilleumier Cycle Heat Pump
A Vuilleumier (VM) cycle heat pump is a closed gas cycle driven by heat energy. It has the highest performance among all known heat driven technologies. In this paper, two thermodynamic analyses, including energy and exergy analysis, are carried out to evaluate the application of a VM cycle heat pum...
