Exploration and Prioritization of Fuel Cell Commercialization Barriers for Use in the Development of a Fuel Cell Roadmap for California
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Barriers to fuel cell commercialization are often introduced as general challenges, such as cost and durability, without definition of the terms and usually without prioritizing the degree to ...
The Effect of Liquid-Fuel Preparation on Gas Turbine Emissions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The emissions of liquid-fuel fired gas turbine engines are strongly affected by the fuel preparation process that includes atomization, evaporation, and mixing. In the present paper, the effects ...
Analysis of NOx Formation in a Hydrogen-Fueled Gas Turbine Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A commercially available natural gas fueled gas turbine engine was operated on hydrogen. Three sets of fuel injectors were developed to facilitate stable operation while generating differing ...
Development of a Dynamic Cathode Ejector Model for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell-Gas Turbine Hybrid Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solid oxide fuel cell-gas turbine (SOFC-GT) hybrid systems are attractive for future power generation with ultra-low criteria pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions. One of the challenges for ...
Diurnal Temperature and Pressure Effects on Axial Turbomachinery Stability in Solid Oxide Fuel Cell-Gas Turbine Hybrid Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A dynamic model of a 100 MW solid oxide fuel cell-gas turbine hybrid system has been developed and subjected to perturbations in diurnal ambient temperature and pressure as well as load sheds. ...
Effects of Distributed Generation on Voltage Levels in a Radial Distribution Network Without Communication
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The challenges associated with incorporating a large amount of distributed generation (DG), including fuel cells, into a radial distribution feeder are examined using a dynamic MATLAB /SIMULINK ...
Fuel Cell/Gas Turbine Hybrid System Control for Daily Load Profile and Ambient Condition Variation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fuel Cell/Gas Turbine (FC/GT) hybrid technology is promising, but introduces challenges in system operation and control. For base-load applications, changes in ambient conditions perturb the system ...
Systematic Selection and Siting of Vehicle Fueling Infrastructure to Synergistically Meet Future Demands for Alternative Fuels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to meet the increasing demand for low carbon and renewable transportation fuels, a methodology for systematically establishing buildout scenarios is desirable. In an effort to minimize initial investment costs ...
Dynamic Simulation of an Integrated Solid Oxide Fuel Cell System Including Current-Based Fuel Flow Control
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A two-dimensional dynamic model was created for a Siemens Westinghouse type tubular solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). This SOFC model was integrated with simulation modules for other system components ...
An Experimental Ignition Delay Study of Alkane Mixtures in Turbulent Flows at Elevated Pressures and Intermediate Temperatures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Autoignition delay times of mixtures of alkanes and natural gas were studied experimentally in a high pressure and intermediate temperature turbulent flow reactor. Measurements were made at ...
