Natural Convection in Porous Media Induced by the Centrifugal Body Force: The Solution for Small Aspect Ratio
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The analytical solution to the natural convection problem in a rotating rectangular porous domain is presented for a small aspect ratio of the domain. The convection results from differential ...
A Second-Order Marginal Costs Approximation for Energy Storage Charging and Discharging Price Functions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A second-order technique is presented for the evaluation of peak/off-peak price functions, based on marginal costs methods, in energy storage technologies. This method is particularly useful in ...
An Evaluation Method for Peak/Off-Peak Price Functions in Energy Storage Technologies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method of evaluation for peak/off-peak price functions in energy storage technologies is presented. The method is particularly useful in statical optimization of the fundamental parameters ...
The Optimal Intercooling of Compressors by a Finite Number of Intercoolers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Intercooling of compressors is necessary for an efficient process. Among the optimal criteria required, minimizing the compression-specific work is one of the more commonly used. Upon ideal ...
A Halo-Thermal Simulation of the Dead Sea for Application to Solar Energy Projects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A one-dimensional numerical model is developed to predict the long-range variations of vertical temperature, density, and salinity profiles in the Dead Sea, which is a highly saline large water ...
