Efficiency Upgrading of an Ambient Pressure Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell Plant Through the Introduction of an Indirect Heated Gas Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The efficient end environmentally friendly production of electricity is undoubtedly one of the 21st century priorities. Since renewable sources will be able to guarantee only a share of the ...
Monitoring-Informed Life-Cycle Cost Analysis of Deteriorating RC Bridges under Repeated Earthquake Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper investigates the influence of rebars’ corrosion monitoring systems on the vulnerability assessment and life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) of reinforced concrete (RC) bridge piers subjected to repeated earthquake ...
Modeling Carbon Monoxide Direct Oxidation in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present study, the results of the numerical implementation of a mathematical model of a planar anode-supported SOFC are reported. In particular, model results are validated and discussed ...
Three-Dimensional Simulation of Gaseous Fuel Injection Through a Hybrid Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Direct injection of gaseous fuel has emerged to be a high potential strategy to tackle both environmental and fuel economy requirements. However, since the electronic gaseous injection technology ...
Enhanced Splash Models for High Pressure Diesel Spray
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mixture preparation is a crucial aspect for the correct operation of modern direct injection (DI) Diesel engines as it greatly influences and alters the combustion process and, therefore, the ...
Wind Analysis of a Suspension Bridge: Identification and Finite-Element Model Simulation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A framework for numerically predicting the wind-excited response of suspension bridges with a certain level of confidence is established by means of output only system identification, model updating, wind-response simulation, ...
New Stochastic Subspace Approach for System Identification and Its Application to Long-Span Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates the model order determination problem in the identification of dynamic characteristics of long-span bridges subjected to ambient excitation. Based on a stochastic state-space model framework, a new ...
SOFC Management in Distributed Energy Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Among the distributed generation emerging technologies, solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) seem to be the most promising for small and medium power (up to 1 MW) as they feature extremely high ...
