Chemically Enhanced Sunlight for Killing Bacteria
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solar ultraviolet (UV) photocatalyzed oxidation of chemicals with titanium dioxide (TiO2 ) has received considerable attention. Much less recognized, however, is the ability of the same system ...
The Interrelation between Recurrent and Capital Costs in a Solar Thermal Process Heat System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of operation and maintenance (O&M) costs on energy produced by solar collector systems is crucial to the market penetration of solar process heat as an alternative energy source. ...
Transient Response of a Latent Heat Storage Unit: An Analytical and Experimental Investigation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical and experimental investigation of the transient thermal response of a latent heat storage unit is presented. Emphasis is placed on characterization of an entire storage unit rather ...
Mixed Layer Development in a Double-Diffusive, Thermohaline System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A double-diffusive, thermohaline system has been studied under laboratory conditions involving uniform heating from below. Shadowgraph visualization has been used with temperature and salt concentration ...
Analytical Dynamic Modeling of Line-Focus Solar Collectors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solar thermal electric power and industrial process heat systems may require a constant outlet temperature from the collector field. This constant temperature is most efficiently maintained by ...

Blade Fatigue Life Assessment With Application to VAWTS
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A cursory analysis of the stress history of wind turbine blades indicates that a single stress level at each wind speed does not adequately describe the blade stress history. A statistical ...
Accurate Correlation of Wind Turbine Response With Wind Speed Using a New Characterization of Turbulent Wind
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The turbulence encountered by a point on a rotating wind turbine blade has characteristics that in some important respects are different from those measured by a stationary anemometer. The ...
Performance Parameters of an Evacuated Tubular Collector With a U-Tube Fluid Channel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Frequency Response Analysis of Fluid Control Systems for Parabolic Trough Solar Collectors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Previous studies of solar collector fluid control systems have utilized computer simulations of collector and piping dynamics to evaluate stability and response characteristics. To obtain reasonable ...
