CREMIT - Centre de Recerca de Motors i Instal·lacions Tèrmiques
Unió funcional de dos grups de recerca ja consolidats i especialitzats en els àmbits de motors tèrmics i instal·lacions tèrmiques motores (CREMIT) l'un, i en màquines Frigorífiques, bombes de calor i processos de transferència de calor (CER) l'altre.
Els objectius comuns per als propers tres anys són els següents:
- la generació de coneixement expressada en publicacions científiques en els àmbits esmentats, i
- la transferència de resultats de la recerca a les empreses i institucions mitjançant acords i convenis específics de col·laboració.
The aim is to join two small, consolidated research groups, one of which specialises in heat engines and machines (CREMIT) and the other in cooling and heating equipment (CER). The common aims for the next three years are to produce knowledge for publication in scientific journals in the aforementioned fields and to transfer the results of research to companies and public institutions.

Numerical study of high-temperature, disk-based tungsten and molybdenum thermophotovoltaic selective thermal emitters
(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2025-02-24)
Article
Open AccessThis work investigates the design of two-dimensional metal-disk-based selective thermal emitters (STEs) for thermophotovoltaic (TPV) applications. A parametric analysis is conducted to study the effect of geometrical ... -
Study of photonic radiative coolers based on semispheres for silicon photovoltaic cells
(Optica Publishing Group, 2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyWe propose a photonic structure of semispheres for radiative cooling of silicon photovoltaic cells. Two materials are studied numerically: soda-lime and polydimethyl-siloxane. Results show an output power increment of ~ ... -
Numerical study of sodalime and PDMS hemisphere photonic structures for radiative cooling of silicon solar cells
(Optical Society of American (OSA), 2022-08-29)
Article
Open AccessThis paper numerically explores the capability of an all-photonic approach to enhance radiative cooling, UV and sub-bandgap reflection, and light trapping as a path to improve solar cells efficiency. The structure is based ... -
Giant injection-locking bandwidth of a self-pulsing limit-cycle in an optomechanical cavity
(Springer, 2022-12-17)
Article
Open AccessLocking of oscillators to ultra-stable external sources is of paramount importance for improving close-to-carrier phase noise in free running oscillators. In most of them, such as Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems or LC ... -
Excitation and detection of acoustic phonons in nanoscale systems
(2022-09-09)
Article
Open AccessPhonons play a key role in the physical properties of materials, and have long been a topic of study in physics. While the effects of phonons had historically been considered to be a hindrance, modern research has shown ... -
Highly-scattering cellulose-based films for radiative cooling
(John Wiley & sons, 2022-03)
Article
Open AccessPassive radiative cooling (RC) enables the cooling of objects below ambient temperature during daytime without consuming energy, promising to be a game changer in terms of energy savings and CO2 reduction. However, so far ... -
Strong cavity-optomechanical transduction of nanopillar motion
(2024-09-03)
Article
Open AccessNanomechanical resonators can serve as ultrasensitive, miniaturized force probes. While vertical structures such as nanopillars are ideal for this purpose, transducing their motion is challenging. Pillar-based photonic ... -
