Analysis of Energy Savings and CO2 Emission Reduction Contribution for Industrial Facilities in USA
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Energy audits can identify energy consumptions, energy costs of the facility and evolve to develop measures to maximize efficiency, optimize supply energy, and eliminate waste. This paper investigates the potential energy ...
Comparative Study of the Inline Configuration Wind Farm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This research provides an in-depth analysis of the flow around the rotor and in the wake of a single horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) model at different free stream velocities and tip speed ratios (TSRs). Moreover, it ...
Effect of the J-Shaped Wind Turbine Airfoil Opening Ratio and Thickness on the Performance of Symmetrical Airfoils
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, the effect of the inner opening ratio on the J-shaped airfoils aerodynamic performance was studied and documented for symmetrical airfoils. Three different airfoil thicknesses were investigated: small (NACA0008), ...
Power Generation and Oxygen Transfer Analyses for Micro Hydro-Turbine Installed in Wastewater Treatment Aeration Tank
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study targets one of the major energy consumers in the U.S. It suggests a new mechanical system that can recover a portion of the energy in Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs). The proposed system entails a hydro-turbine ...
The Power Reclamation of Utilizing Micro-Hydro Turbines in the Aeration Basins of Wastewater Treatment Plants
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Upgrading the aeration basin technology can improve the oxygen transfer efficiency (OTE), while keeping the energy consumption at its minimum level. Therefore, this paper introduces a new idea of installing micro-propeller ...
