Computational Fluid Dynamics Investigation of a Novel Multiblade Wind Turbine in a Duct
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel manufacturing approach similar to filament winding is able to produce highperformance and lightweight composite wheels. The production can be rapid, inexpensive, and utilize commercially available winding machines. ...
Comparison of Leakage Characteristics of Viton and Polytetrafluoroethylene Seals in Gas-Lift Valve Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present research article focuses on comparing the leakage characteristics of Viton and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) seals used in enhanced oil-recovery system. The objective of the study is also to validate if each ...
Low-Leakage Shaft-End Seals for Utility-Scale Supercritical CO2 Turboexpanders
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) power cycles could be a more efficient alternative to steam Rankine cycles for power generation from coal. Using existing labyrinth seal technology, shaft-end-seal leakage can result in ...
