Odisha, home to one of the largest bauxite reserves in India, is a critical hub for the country’s aluminium industry.

An Induced Cooling Tower (ICT) is an energy transformation device that facilitates heat and mass transfer by leveraging ambient conditions. ICTs are particularly effective in applications requiring a large heat transfer surface area, utilizing evaporative cooling of ambient air to cool hot steam.

The present work examines the significant impact of resistance spot welding (RSW) process parameters on the properties and efficacy of connections created in sheets of 316L stainless steel.

Phase Change Materials (PCMs) are increasingly vital for improving thermal energy storage (TES) systems.

The increasing complexity of nuclear facility operations, decommissioning activities, and emergency response scenarios necessitate the development of advanced autonomous systems capable of functioning in highly radioactive environments.

This study examines the thermodynamic performance of binary vapor cycles, specifically analysing two working fluid combinations: ammonia-water mixtures and trans-critical carbon dioxide (CO2).
