  2. 1. Developing Humidified Gas Turbine Cycles

    Author : Michael Bartlett; KTH; []
    Keywords : advanced gas turbine cycles; evaporative; humidified; power; heat and power;

    Abstract : As a result of their unique heat recovery properties,Humidified Gas Turbine (HGT) cycles have the potential todeliver resource-effective energy to society. The EvaporativeGas Turbine (EvGT) Consortium in Sweden has been studying thesetypes of cycles for nearly a decade, but now stands at acrossroads, with commercial demonstration remaining. READ MORE

  4. 2. A Thermoeconomic Evaluation of CO2 Capture with Focus on Gas Turbine-Based Power Plants

    Author : Björn Fredriksson Möller; Kraftverksteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Termisk teknik; climate change; optimisation; genetic algorithms; applied thermodynamics; Thermal engineering; AZEP; GTPOM; gas turbine; CO2 capture; thermoeconomy; termodynamik;

    Abstract : The increasing emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning are today thought to be one of the main contributors to global warming. At the same time, developing countries are striving for an increased welfare and burning more fossil fuel, which in turn is augmenting the greenhouse gas effect. READ MORE

  5. 3. Natural gas in the Asian Pacific region : market behavior and the Japanese electricity market

    Author : Bo Jonsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : This dissertation consists of four main chapters, all related to the Asian Pacific natural gas market, and the role of the Japanese electricity sector. The natural gas market in Asia Pacific is heavily dependent on the demand from Japan, which imports around 75% of the gas traded as LNG (liquefied natural gas) in the region. READ MORE

  6. 4. Elements of the Asia Pacific gas market : market power and efficiency

    Author : Bo Jonsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : Natural gas trade in the Asian Pacific market is heavily dependent on the demand from Japan, which imports around 75% of the gas traded as LNG (liquefied natural gas) in the region. This study argues that the buyers in Japan, through cooperation have the potential to exert the market power that their large market share provides them with. READ MORE

  7. 5. Diluted Operation of a Heavy-Duty Natural Gas Engine - Aiming at Improved Effciency, Emission and Maximum Load

    Author : Mehrzad Kaiadi; Förbränningsmotorer; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulence; Natural gas engine; Dilution limit; VGT; Cyclic variation; Closed-loop control; Heavy-duty;

    Abstract : Most heavy-duty engines are diesel operated. Severe emission regulations, high fuel prices, high technology costs (e.g. catalysts, fuel injection systems) and unsustainably in supplying fuel are enough reasons to convenience engine developers to explore alternative technologies or fuels.
