  1. 1. Thermodynamic properties of humid air and their application in advanced power generation cycles

    Author : Xiaoyan Ji; Jinyue Yan; Umberto Desideri; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; air-water mixture; humid air; properties; wet cycles; dry air; water; enthalpy; entropy; heat capacity; density; evaporative gas turbine; compressed air energy storage; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Water or steam is added into the working fluid (often air) in gas turbines to improve the performance of gas turbine cycles. A typical application is the humidified gas turbine that has the potential to give high efficiencies, high specific power output, low emissions and low specific investment. READ MORE

  2. 2. Study of a Pneumatic Hybrid aided by a FPGA Controlled Free Valve Technology System

    Author : Sasa Trajkovic; Förbränningsmotorer; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Compressor; Air-motor; Pneuamtc; Pneumatic-hybrid; VVT; Valve; regenerative; Hybrid; Air;

    Abstract : Urban traffic involves frequent acceleration and deceleration. During deceleration, the energy previously used to accelerate the vehicle is mainly wasted on heat generated by the friction brakes. If this energy that is wasted in traditional IC engines could be saved, the fuel economy would improve. READ MORE

  3. 3. The Non-Energy Benefits of Industrial Energy Efficiency : Investments and Measures

    Author : Therese Nehler; Patrik Thollander; Elin Svensson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Industrial energy efficiency; energy efficiency measures; energy efficiency investments; non-energy benefits; compressed air;

    Abstract : Improved industrial energy efficiency is viewed as an important means in the reduction of CO2 emissions and climate change mitigation. Various energy efficiency measures for improving energy efficiency exists, but even evaluated as cost-effective, there seems to be a difference between the energy efficiency measures that theoretically could be undertaken and which measures that actually are realised.

  4. 4. Analysis and Applications of Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL)

    Author : Bulent Tasdelen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dry; compressed air; sliding; MQL; temperature; nozzle; oil amount; seizure; tool wear; tool-chip contact surface topography.; contact length;

    Abstract : One of the greatest obstacles to the implementation of MQL is “lack of knowledge” which also limits the expansion of its usage. The presented work aims to take a step toward a better understanding of the mechanisms that occur in MQL assisted machining. READ MORE

  5. 5. Performance Testing of Cutting Fluids and Tool Holders in Metal Cutting

    Author : Varun Nayyar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chip Microstructure; Torque; Drilling; Compressed air; Turning; Tool-holding; Force.; Tapping; Keyword: Cutting Fluid;

    Abstract : ABSTRACTThe metal cutting industry has evolved over the last century to the point where an increasing range and complexity of tool holding systems and cutting fluids are available for metal machining in the market. Most of the companies report their cutting fluid cost to be between 7 -17 % of the manufacturing cost. READ MORE
