  1. 1. Micro-grinding of titanium

    Author : Mohammadali Kadivar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dressing; grinding; tool topography.; modelling; Micro machining;

    Abstract : Titanium and its alloys are difficult-to-cut materials, commonly used in several application fields, such as: medicine, aerospace, automotive and turbine manufacturing due to their biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, excellent mechanical and thermal properties, and light weight. However, its machining is associated with several difficulties, such as high tool wear, low surface quality, high cutting forces and high costs. READ MORE

  2. 2. Aspects of creep-fatigue in gas turbine hot parts

    Author : Magnus Hasselqvist; Gunnar Härkegård; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : creep; fatigue; TMF; gas turbine; modelling; life assessment; ageing; micro-structure; solute drag; back stress; Haynes 230; IN792;

    Abstract : The goal is reliable creep-fatigue lifing methodology for industrial gas turbines.A literature study on high temperature materials used in gas turbines reveals that:• Most testing/modelling work has focused on characterisation and modelling of material response in isothermal standard tests, i.e. creep, tensile and LCF tests.

  3. 3. Externally fired gas turbine cycle based on biomass gasification gas as fuel

    Author : Fabiola Baina Veizaga; Torsten Fransson; Lasse Rosendhal; KTH; []
    Keywords : Externally fired micro gas turbine; heat transfer; combustion of biomass derived gas; micro combined heat and power; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Abstract : Energy services are essential for the development of societies, reduce poverty, and improve the living standards of inhabitants. The conventional routes to provide energy services employ fossil fuels. However, this involves environmental and availability concerns. READ MORE

  4. 4. Towards a learning system for process and energy industry : Enabling optimal control, diagnostics and decision support

    Author : Moksadur Rahman; Konstantinos Kyprianidis; Anders Avelin; Bengtsson Gunnar; Agostino Gambarotta; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Learning system; Supervisory system; Pulp and paper; Micro gas turbine; Process modelling; Model-based control; Diagnostics; Decision support; Anomaly detection; Fault detection; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Driven by intense competition, increasing operational cost and strict environmental regulations, the modern process and energy industry needs to find the best possible way to adapt to maintain profitability. Optimization of control and operation of the industrial systems is essential to satisfy the contradicting objectives of improving product quality and process efficiency while reducing production cost and plant downtime.

  5. 5. On a learning system for industrial automation : Model-based control and diagnostics for decision support

    Author : Moksadur Rahman; Konstantinos Kyprianidis; Anders Avelin; Gunnar Bengtsson; John Hedengren; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Learning system; Supervisory system; Pulp and paper; Micro gas turbine; Process modelling; Model-based control; Diagnostics; Decision support; Anomaly detection; Fault detection; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Access to energy is fundamental to economic and technological advancement. Hence, the more the world develops, the greater the demand for energy becomes. Evidently, the production and consumption of energy alone account for more than 80% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. READ MORE
