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.

Thermodynamic Optimization of Solar-Driven Refrigerators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes the thermodynamic optimization of a class of refrigerators without work input, which are driven by heat transfer from a solar collector. The model consists of a finite-size ...
Thermodynamic Optimization of a Gas Turbine Power Plant With Pressure Drop Irreversibilities
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper we show that the thermodynamic performance of a gas turbine power plant can be optimized by adjusting the flow rate and the distribution of pressure losses along the flow path. ...
