Les fumées des trains à vapeur, un débordement industriel et professionnel (France, Grande-Bretagne, années 1860-1930)

Objet d’une héroïsation précoce et durable, notamment à travers la littérature, le travail des mécaniciens et chauffeurs de locomotives à vapeur reste mal connu du point de vue de ses effets sur l’environnement et sur la santé des travailleurs eux-mêmes. ...

Solar-assisted clean steam generator, a cleaner production approach for sustainable healthcare facilities

Fernando Porté Agel, Mohammad Jamshidmofid, Ahmad Arabkoohsar

Healthcare sector buildings, particularly hospitals, significantly contribute to global energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Hospitals require a substantial amount of steam, including the essential hygienic or " clean steam, " that is currently ...

Experimental Investigation of a Small-Scale Organic Rankine Cycle Turbo-Generator Supported on Gas-Lubricated Bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Kévin Rosset

Waste heat recovery (WHR) is expected to contribute to reducing CO2 emissions from trucks. Organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems show the highest potential for this application, but still lack efficient small-scale expansion devices, in practice. A novel tur ...

Improving frequency containment reserve provision in run-of-river hydropower plants

Mario Paolone, Elena Vagnoni, Francesco Gerini

The paper presents a model-based control strategy for optimal asset management of hydroelectric units in run-of-river hydropower plants. The proposed control strategy aims to operate the unit at the best efficiency while improving water flow management and ...

Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of a 34 Watt Radial-Inflow Steam Turbine with Partial-Admission

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner

A micro steam turbine with a tip diameter of 15 mm was designed and experimentally characterized. At the nominal mass flow rate and total-to-total pressure ratio of 2.3 kg/h and 2, respectively, the turbine yields a power of 34 W and a total-to-static isen ...

Sofc system with anode off-gas recirculation

Daniel Favrat, Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Zacharie Wuillemin, Patrick Hubert Wagner

The present invention concerns an SOFC system comprising an anode off-gas recirculation arrangement in which anode off-gas is pumped by a fan or pump of a coaxial turbine-fan assembly, the system comprising a condenser for condensing water contained in sai ...

Experimental characterization of a solid oxide fuel cell coupled to a steam-driven micro anode off-gas recirculation fan

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Stefan Diethelm, Zacharie Wuillemin, Patrick Hubert Wagner, David Constantin

While the global fuel utilization of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is limited by the stack aging rate, the fuel excess is typically used in a burner, and thus limiting the system electrical efficiency. Further, natural-gas-fueled SOFCs require treated wat ...
