ASME ( American Society of Mechanical Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is a professional association that, in its own words, "promotes the art, science, and practice of multidisciplinary engineering and allied sciences around the globe" via "continuing education, training and professional development, codes and standards, research, conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization, a research and development organization, a lobbying organization, a provider of training and education, and a nonprofit organization. Founded as an engineering society focused on mechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today multidisciplinary and global.

Air Extraction in a Gas Turbine for Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC): Experiments and Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an investigation of extracting air from the compressor discharge of a heavy-frame gas turbine. The study aimed to verify results of an approximate analysis: whether extracting ...
An Experimental/Computational Study of Airflow in the Combustor–Diffuser System of a Gas Turbine for Power Generation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an experimental/computational study of cold flow in the combustor–diffuser system of industrial gas turbines employing can-annular combustors and impingement-cooled transition ...
Flow Measurements in a Curved-Wall Annular Contraction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Flow development in an annular contraction is of fundamental and practical importance in various applications including the gas turbine systems. This paper describes an experimental study of flow ...
Active Control of Combustion for Optimal Performance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Combustion-zone stoichiometry and fuel-air premixing were actively controlled to optimize the combustor performance over a range of operating conditions. The objective was to maximize the combustion ...
