Optimal use of biomass in large-scale energy systems: insights for energy policy

François Maréchal, Stefano Moret, Emanuela Peduzzi, Victor Codina Gironès, Marco Nasato

Biomass chemical conversion processes allow the production of solid, liquid and gaseous biofuels, which can substitute almost any kind of fossil fuel and the associated greenhouse gas emissions. Despite this potential, high investment costs and conversion ...

Environmental, Energetic and Economic Evaluation of Implementing a Supercritical Fluid-Based Nanocellulose Production Process in a Sugarcane Biorefinery

François Maréchal, Juliana Queiroz Albarelli

Nanocellulose, which is a disintegration product of plant cellulose, has recently come to public attention because of its great mechanical properties combined with renewability and biodegradability. From an environmental point-of-view, nanocellulose has sh ...

Optimisation of unit investment and load shedding in a steam network facing undercapacity

François Maréchal, Greta Martha Van Eetvelde, Laurent Gabriel Félix Alexandre Stéphane Bungener

Steam networks and their utilities should be dimensioned to satisfy day-to-day demand as well peaks. Peaks can be caused by unit start-ups, extreme weather conditions or combinations of high demand from process units. During maintenance operations or unexp ...

Geothermal energy integration in urban systems. The case study of the city of Lausanne.

Frédéric Louis-Pierre Raphaël Marie Amblard

In the framework of the GEOTHERM II, a joint effort of geoscience, engineering and social-science of academic and public partners, the integration of geothermal energy in urban systems is evaluated. A superstructure was defined for the case study of the ci ...

Intermittent dewetting and dryout of annular flows

John Richard Thome, Navid Borhani

Flow visualisation of saturated flow boiling of refrigerant R245fa in a silicon parallel multi-microchannel evaporator, at low mass flux and moderate uniform heat flux, has been carried out with a high-speed digital camera. Using the time-strip technique t ...

Critical Heat Flux of R134a and R245fa Inside Small-Diameter Tubes

John Richard Thome, Sylwia Szczukiewicz, Cristiano Bigonha Tibiriça

This article presents new experimental critical heat flux results under saturated flow boiling conditions for a macro/microscale tube. The data were obtained in a horizontal 2.20-mm inside diameter stainless-steel tube with heating lengths of 361 and 154 m ...

Robust and Gain-Scheduled PID Controller Design for Condensing Boilers by Linear Programming

Alireza Karimi, Vinicius De Oliveira

This paper addresses the water temperature control in condensing domestic boilers. The main challenge of this process under the controller design perspective is the fact that the dynamics of condensing boilers are strongly affected by the demanded water fl ...
