Development of a Novel Combined Absorption Cycle for Power Generation and Refrigeration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cogeneration can improve energy utilization efficiency significantly. In this paper, a new ammonia-water system is proposed for the cogeneration of refrigeration and power. The plant operates in ...
Comparative Study of Two Low CO2 Emission Power Generation System Options With Natural Gas Reforming
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Two power plant schemes that reduce CO2 emission and employ natural gas reforming were analyzed and discussed. The first one integrates natural gas reforming technology for efficiency improvement ...
Use of Low/Mid-Temperature Solar Heat for Thermochemical Upgrading of Energy, Part I: Application to a Novel Chemically-Recuperated Gas-Turbine Power Generation (SOLRGT) System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper is the first part of a study presenting the concept of indirect thermochemical upgrading of low/mid temperature solar heat, and demonstration of its integration into a high efficiency ...
Proposal and Analysis of a Novel Zero CO2 Emission Cycle With Liquid Natural Gas Cryogenic Exergy Utilization
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel liquefied natural gas (LNG) fueled power plant is proposed, which has virtually zero CO2 and other emissions and a high efficiency. Natural gas is fired in highly enriched oxygen and ...
Use of Low/Mid-Temperature Solar Heat for Thermochemical Upgrading of Energy, Part II: A Novel Zero-Emissions Design (ZE-SOLRGT) of the Solar Chemically-Recuperated Gas-Turbine Power Generation System (SOLRGT) guided by its Exergy Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper adds an exergy analysis of the novel SOLRGT solar-assisted power generation system proposed and described in detail in Part I of this study (Zhang and Lior, 2012, “Use of ...
Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity Analysis of Influence Factor on Urban Rail Transit Station Ridership
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Urban rail transit has effectively alleviated the pressure on road traffic. To explore the key influence factors that a rail station’s built environment has on passenger flow and its heterogeneity along with temporal and ...
Effects of CO2 Curing on Properties of Magnesium Oxysulfate Cement
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper is based on the basic mechanical properties and volume deformation test, as well as the characterization of hydration products and microstructure properties such as x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron ...
Effect of Ammonium Citrate Tribasic on the Hydration Reaction and Properties of Magnesium Oxysulfate Cement
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this paper, the hydration reaction and properties of magnesium oxysulfate (MOS) cement modified with ammonium citrate tribasic are discussed and compared with MOS cement without chemical additives. The hydration reaction ...
Deterioration of Soil-Cement Piles in a Saltwater Region and Its Influence on the Settlement of Composite Foundations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Soil-cement mixed piles are widely used to improve soft subsoil. But in regions with high-salinity groundwater, the soil-cement is susceptible to deterioration. At present, however, the design code for soil-cement pile ...
