Abstract: Air pollution can have detrimental effects on gas turbine performance leading to blade fouling, which reduces power output and requires frequent cleanings. This issue is a fairly well-known phenomenon in the power industry. ...

Abstract: Numerical and thermodynamic analyses have been undertaken in this study to examine energy and exergy efficiencies of in-line tube banks for unsteady cross-flow. Pitch ratio (PR) and the number of in-line tubes are varied ...

Abstract: Direct energy conversion from ocean waves requires some method of rectifying the oscillatory motion to produce a unidirectional output. The Wells turbine accomplishes this with horizontally mounted symmetric blades, which ...
