RISOptimum Power Boosting of Gas Turbine Cycles With Compressor Inlet Air Refrigeration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A conceptual gas turbine cycle with refrigerated air supplied to the compressor inlet is proposed to increase the cycle specific net power significantly and render it practically insensitive to ...
Thermal Behavior in a Transient State of a Case of Hollow Block: Transfer Function Coefficients
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The aim of this work is to determine the empirical transfer function coefficients (TFCs) for the case of a hollow tile with two air cells deep in the vertical direction. We start with the prediction of combined heat transfer ...
Why Eddy Momentum Fluxes are Concentrated in the Upper Troposphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he extratropical eddy momentum flux (EMF) is controlled by generation, propagation, and dissipation of large-scale eddies and is concentrated in Earth?s upper troposphere. An idealized GCM is used to investigate how this ...
Nanomechanics of ASR Gels from Coarse-Grained Simulations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Despite alkali–silica reaction (ASR) being a major durability problem in concrete, structural features and properties of ASR gels remain poorly understood. Inspired by the success of coarse-grained (CG) simulations in ...
An Accurate Low Dimension Model for the Waves on Thin Layer Fluid Flowing Down an Inclined Plane
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This technical brief deals with the surface instability mode of a liquid film flowing down an inclined plane. A four-equation model that describes the development of the film depth, the flow ...
Natural Convection Reduction in a Composite Air/Porous Annular Region With Horizontal Orientation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with a numerical investigation on natural convection heat transfer in a long horizontal annular region formed with a heated inner cylinder and a cooled outer cylinder. Identifying ...
An Efficient State–Parameter Filtering Scheme Combining Ensemble Kalman and Particle Filters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis work addresses the state?parameter filtering problem for dynamical systems with relatively large-dimensional state and low-dimensional parameters? vector. A Bayesian filtering algorithm combining the strengths ...
Durability Properties of Concrete Made with High Volumes of Low-Calcium Coal Bottom Ash As a Replacement of Two Types of Sand
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Composite Asphalt Binders: Effect of Modified RPE on Asphalt
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recycled polyethylene (RPE) modified asphalts were prepared and characterized. The RPE was modified with different copolymers before incorporating into the asphalt. A special morphology was found for this system. The RPE ...
Efficient Kernel-Based Ensemble Gaussian Mixture Filtering
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Bayesian filtering problem for data assimilation is considered following the kernel-based ensemble Gaussian mixture filtering (EnGMF) approach introduced by Anderson and Anderson. In this approach, the posterior ...
