Time Specific Irradiances Derived from Geostationary Satellite Images
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Grahic Jump LocationHourly time/site specific irradiances derived from geostationary satellite images are more accurate than irradiances from a ground measurement station when the distance from the ...
Discussion: “Design Improvements to a Biomass Stirling Engine Using Mathematical Analysis and 3D CFD Modeling” (Mahkamov, K., 2006, ASME J. Energy Resour. Technol., 128, pp. 203–215)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: As the designer of the engine featured in Dr. Mahkamov’s paper, I welcome his pioneering application of CFD modeling to the Stirling cycle. The technique would have been helpful in 1996 when ...
Introduction to the Special Section on “Risk Management and Legal Considerations of Project and Services Delivery”
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion: “Design Improvements to a Biomass Stirling Engine Using Mathematical Analysis and 3D CFD Modeling” (Mahkamov, K., 2006, ASME J. Energy Resour. Technol., 128, pp. 203–215)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For readers wanting to know how computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling might help the Stirling engine realize its full potential as a source of sustainable energy, the “closure” from ...
A Modeling Study of the Effect of the Andes on the Summertime Circulation of Tropical South America
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple linear two level model of the atmosphere is developed which has a reasonable representation of the external and tropically important baroclinic modes. By blocking the lower layer of the model with a meridional ...
Understanding Royal Navy Gas Turbine Sea Water Lubricating Oil Cooler Failures When Caused by Microbial Induced Corrosion (“SRB”)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A managed program to review engine failures and take necessary preventative measures has been in place successfully in the Royal Navy since the introduction of gas turbines into service in the ...
Discussion: “Design Improvements to a Biomass Stirling Engine Using Mathematical Analysis and 3D CFD Modeling” [Mahkamov, K., 2006, ASME J. Energy Resour. Technol., 128, pp 203–215]
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: in the 1980s (Solar Energy, 31 (5), pp. 523–525). This form of transverse rocker beam drive and seal design was suggested to me by Richard Kinnersly, the designer of the Stirling engine, which is the subject of Dr. Mahkamov...
Cost and Quality Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Cost and quality are inseparable issues on any project. The generally perceived notion that “quality” has a direct bearing on “cost” to the owner is generally valid assuming all procedures are well managed and executed by ...
