Physics-Informed Machine Learning for Radiation-Free Water Liquid Ratio Estimation Using Coriolis Flow Measurements

This study introduces a radiation-free, physics-informed machine learning framework that accurately estimates the Water Liquid Ratio in three-phase oil–gas–water flows using only Coriolis mass flow measurements and a novel Harmonic Mixture Density Mean Factor (HMDMF), achieving high predictive performance (R² = 0.8943) and offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional gamma-based systems.

Thermodynamic Stratification of Dual-Working-Fluid ORC-Driven Vapor Compression Refrigeration Systems Based on Critical Property Compatibility

This study introduces a thermodynamic stratification framework based on critical temperature differences to classify dual-working-fluid ORC-VCC systems, revealing that lower critical temperature differences yield higher efficiency at the cost of increased mass flow rates while identifying condenser temperature as the dominant factor influencing overall system performance.

From European Modular Housing to Ichu-Insulated Andean Dwellings: A Comparative Technology-Transfer Framework for Frost-Resilient Thermal Conditioning in Southern Peru

This paper proposes a low-cost, locally-sourced thermal retrofit framework for frost-prone Andean dwellings in southern Peru by systematically comparing international cold-climate housing strategies to derive a wall and roof specification using indigenous materials like ichu grass and camelid wool that theoretically reduces thermal transmittance by 55–65%.
