Abstract: In order to eliminate the wavelet boundary effect caused by the limitation of data length, a univariate predictive extension method based on phase space reconstruction and least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) is ...

Abstract: Flue gas treatment systems have been widely installed in power plants to recover the remaining energy from the exhaust flue gas and to address pollutant emissions by heating the cleaned flue gas. In this study, three modes ...

Abstract: Lignite usually has a high moisture content and low calorific value, and should be predried before combustion to enhance power generation efficiency. Steam extracted from steam turbine and boiler exhaust gas are often ...

Abstract: This work presents a numerical investigation of the thermal control performance of a phase change material (PCM) compositefilling fin heat exchanger under natural convection and transient heat flux shocks. First, the ...

Abstract: The time-varying average and differential temperatures may significantly change the performance of steel truss bridges, which may increase the difficulties for bridge design, construction, and maintenance. Because hundreds ...
