On the Optimization of a Geared Fan Intercooled Core Engine Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reduction of CO2 emissions is strongly linked with the improvement of engine specific fuel consumption (SFC), as well as the reduction of engine nacelle drag and weight. One alternative design approach to improving SFC is ...
Pressurized SOFC System Fuelled by Biogas: Control Approaches and Degradation Impact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper shows control approaches for managing a pressurized solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system fuelled by biogas. This is an advanced solution to integrate the high efficiency benefits of a pressurized SOFC with a ...
Multidisciplinary Analysis of a Geared Fan Intercooled Core Aero Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The reduction of CO2 emissions is strongly linked with the improvement of engine specific fuel consumption, along with the reduction of engine nacelle drag and weight. One alternative design approach to improving specific ...
Lessons Learned From the Development of Courses on Gas Turbine Multidisciplinary Conceptual Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Despite the need for highly qualified experts, multidisciplinary gas turbine conceptual design has not been a common study topic in traditional postgraduate curriculums. Although many courses on specialized topics in gas ...
A Degradation Diagnosis Method for Gas Turbine—Fuel Cell Hybrid Systems Using Bayesian Networks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper aims to develop and test Bayesian belief network-based diagnosis methods, which can be used to predict the most likely degradation levels of turbine, compressor, and fuel cell (FC) in a hybrid system based on ...
System-Level Assessment of a Partially Distributed Hybrid Electric Propulsion System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hybrid electric propulsion system-based aircraft designs are paving the path toward a future greener aviation sector and thus, have been the major focus of the aeronautical community. The fuel efficiency improvement ...
On the Performance of Variable-Geometry Ducted E-Fans
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Electrically driven ducted fans (e-fans), either underwing-mounted or located at the aft-fuselage, can potentially improve the system overall efficiency in hybrid-electric propulsion architectures by increasing their thrust ...
Adaptive Control of Microgas Turbine for Engine Degradation Compensation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Microgas turbine (MGT) engines in the range of 1–100 kW are playing a key role in distributed generation applications, due to the high reliability and quick load following that favor their integration with intermittent ...
Thermal Load Control in High-Temperature Heat Pumps: A Comparative Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: High-temperature heat pumps (HTHPs) are becoming increasingly relevant in the industry as they represent a promising solution for decarbonizing industrial heat. These technologies can enable the electrification of industrial ...
Conceptual Design and Energy Storage Positioning Aspects for a Hybrid-Electric Light Aircraft
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work is a feasibility study of a 19-passenger hybrid-electric aircraft, to serve the short-haul segment within the 200–600 nautical miles. Its ambition is to answer some dominating research questions, during the ...
