Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the results of a thermo-economic analysis of integrating solar tower (ST) with heat and power cogeneration plants that is progressively being installed to produce heat and electricity to operate absorption ...
Experimental Study on the Effect of Hydrogen Enrichment of Methane on the Stability and Emission of Nonpremixed Swirl Stabilized Combustor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An ultra lean mixture (د•â€‰â‰¤â€‰0.5) of methane–hydrogen–air was experimentally investigated to explore the effect of fuel flexibility on the flame stability and emission of a nonpremixed swirl stabilized combustor. ...
Analytical and Numerical Modeling of Solar Chimney
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solar chimney or Trombe wall has been studied numerically and analytically. Analytical results available in the literature overestimate air flow rate by 46–97%. While insulated walls are used in the experiments, there might ...
Optimal Design of a Solar Collector for Required Flux Distribution on a Tubular Receiver
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
