  2. 11. Evaluation, Experience and Potential of Gas Turbine Based Cycles with Humidification

    Author : Torbjörn Lindquist; Kraftverksteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Model Validation; Recuperator; Flue Gas Condensation; Humidification; Gas Turbine; Advanced Thermodynamic Cycles; HAT; Humid Air Turbine; Evaporative Gas Turbine Cycle; EvGT; Operating Experience; EvGT Pilot Plant; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; termodynamik;

    Abstract : Gas turbines, in simple and combined cycle, are common and economically profitable on the power generating market today. Several new cycles have been proposed as future competing technologies, but all studies about these cycles have, so far, been paperwork. READ MORE

  4. 12. Humidification Processes in Gas Turbine Cycles

    Author : Marcus Thern; Kraftverksteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; applied thermodynamics; Thermal engineering; Energiforskning; Energy research; HAT; Biomass; Biofuel; Humidification; Evaporation; Evaporative gas turbine ; Humid air turbine ; Termisk teknik; termodynamik;

    Abstract : The global climate change caused by emissions of greenhouse gases from combustion processes has been recognized as a continuously growing problem and much research focuses on improving the environmental performance of gas turbines. The potential of improving gas turbine component efficiencies has become smaller each decade and therefore, thermodynamic cycles have become more interesting for power producing units. READ MORE

  5. 13. Aerothermal Experimental Investigation of LPT-OGVs

    Author : Borja Rojo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Experimental; Turbine Rear Structure; Aerodynamics; Wind Tunnel; CFD; Gas Turbine; Engine Exit Structure; Outlet Guide Vane; Heat transfer.; Turbine Exhaust Case; Turbine Rear Frame; Exit Guide Vane;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the design, commissioning, and experimental data of a newly built turbine facility at Chalmers University of Technology for investigating the ow in the engine exit structure (EES). The EES is the structure located downstream of the lowpressure turbine (LPT) in a jet engine. READ MORE

  6. 14. Studies of a Vertical Axis Turbine for Marine Current Energy Conversion : Electrical system and turbine performance

    Author : Johan Forslund; Karin Thomas; Cameron Johnstone; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : Ocean energy is a field of growing interest when it comes to renewable energy thanks to its high density of energy per unit area, and to the high predictability. Conversion of hydrokinetic energy, found in marine currents, is the utilization of the energy in free-flowing water for conversion to electric energy. READ MORE

  7. 15. Numerical Simulation of Turbulent Flows for Turbine Blade Heat Transfer Applications

    Author : Jonas Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; k-.omega.; k-.epsilon.; explicit Runge-Kutta; finite volume; turbine; numerical method; non-linear; Navier-Stokes; supersonic; two-equation; external heat transfer; stagnation flow; two-dimensional; transition; low-Reynolds; turbulence model; impulse blade;

    Abstract : Turbine blade heat transfer is an important engineering problem characterized by complex flow fields and high turbulence levels. This thesis is focused on using a full Navier-Stokes solver with two-equation eddy-viscosity models to predict external heat-transfer in single-stage, linear, two-dimensional uncooled turbine cascades.
