  • An economic and environmental assessment model for microchannel device manufacturing

    Creator:
    Gao, Qi
    Abstract:
    A key application of microchannel process technology (MPT) is its implementation in heat exchanger devices, since a larger surface contact area can be realized than in conventional approaches, thus achieving high heat transfer efficiency. To justify high volume production of configurations validated as prototypes, and to select from among the...

  • Process-based modeling for cradle-to-gate energy and carbon footprint reduction in product design

    Creator:
    Alsaffar, Ahmed J.
    Abstract:
    Interest in accounting for environmental impacts of products, processes, and systems during the design phase is increasing. Numerous studies have undertaken investigations for reducing environmental impacts across the product life cycle. Efforts have also been launched to quantify such impacts more accurately. Life cycle energy consumption and carbon footprint are...
