“…Digkoglou and Papathanasiou (2018) employed PROMETHEE to evaluate the EU nations according to their environmental performance. Guler et al (2021)used PROMETHEE to assess the sustainability of energy in 36 OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) nations. Phillis et al (2021) developed a paradigm for defining and quantifying the sustainability of national energy systems in their article.…”

Renewable energy sources have a crucial role in decreasing reliance on fossil fuels. In the literature, there is a need for new studies on the evaluation of energy use preferences and policies of countries before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. In order to fill this gap, the study aimed to compare and evaluate 36 countries through Entropy-based PROMETHEE methods using TheGlobalEconomy.com indicators. As a result of Entropy, while the criterion with the highest importance is the gasoline consumption criterion with a value of 14.12%, the criterion that follows these criteria in order are the fossil fuels electricity generation (12.25%); coal consumption (11.8%); coal imports (10.52%); renewable power generation (10.29%). According to the PROMETHEE results, Sweden ranked first and is a good performer in almost all the indicators. In addition, the first 10 countries in the ranking are the European Union countries. The novelty of the study is that it provides an important review of the current literature on energy and that 36 countries with significant economic power from almost all continents are evaluated in terms of energy consumption and preferences at both pre-pandemic and pandemic conditions.

Combining Value-Focused Thinking and PROMETHEE Techniques for Selecting a Portfolio of Distributed Energy Generation Projects in the Brazilian Electricity Sector

et al. 2021

This article aims to propose a multi-criteria model to support decision-making from a portfolio in selecting technologies for Distributed Generation of Energy (DGE) projects based on the characteristics of the geographic space in Brazil. The decision model involves using multi-criteria to support the evaluation, prioritization, and selection of projects under a multistage decision-making process that fits into a strategic management cycle within the energy sector of Mato Grosso do Sul (Brazil). The over-classification techniques Preference Ranking Organization Technique for Enrichment Evaluations (PROMETHEE) II and V were applied under the Value-Focused Thinking (VFT) approach, reflecting the decision-maker or manager preferences among several conflicting criteria in the investment context of sustainable distributed energy generation projects. Based on real data, a numerical application is employed to view the steps of this decision model and illustrate the adequacy and effectiveness in practical issues of portfolio management.

“…Due to the increased environmental concerns, investigations related to hydrogen-air mixtures are one of the most demanding research projects globally. [21][22][23] In the past 2 years, several studies have been performed in view of hydrogen-air mixtures. Kireeti et al 24 investigated the effect of a multistrut-based hydrogen injector to understand the heat transfer and fluid dynamics effects during scramjet combustion.…”

The premixed combustion of a lean hydrogen–air mixture is analyzed in this study to examine various properties and flame stabilization. A two‐dimensional (2D) analysis of a microscale combustor is performed with various shapes of bluff bodies (e.g., circular and triangular). Nine bluff bodies are placed at the entrance of the microscale combustor and solved with 2D governing equations. The analysis is performed with the three velocities of 10, 20, and 30 m/s, but the equivalence ratio is fixed in all cases. The various characteristics of the microscale combustor are studied such as the temperature of the wall, difference in peak temperature, the mean velocity at the outlet, and temperature of the exhaust gases. Flame stabilization depends on various factors such as bluff body shape and size, and the velocity of the fuel–air mixture at the inlet and recirculation zone. In comparison to all bluff body cases, we observe that the wall blade bluff body is the most efficient (low exhaust gas temperature, large recirculation zone, low mean velocity at the outlet of the microcombustor, and high wall temperature) compared with all eight other bluff body cases. Combustion efficiency is directly proportional to the wall temperature, meaning that the microcombustor with wall blade bluff bodies is more efficient with a stabilized flame. The simulation results are compared with published data on an L/D ratio of 15.
