Identification of optimal operating strategy of direct air-cooling condenser for Rankine cycle based power plants

François Maréchal, Ligang Wang, Xiang Li

Direct air-cooling condenser has attracted significant attention in the last decade due to the employment of Rankine-cycle based power plants from renewable (e.g., concentrated solar) or traditional (e.g., coal) heat sources in water-scarce areas. The opti ...

Study on room modal equalization at low frequencies with electroacoustic absorbers

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Iris Rigas

Nowadays, requirements for acoustic treatments in rooms are ever more demanding in terms of performance and compactness. A recurring issue in closed spaces is the occurrence of standing waves and acoustic interferences at low frequencies. These unwanted ph ...

Autonomic SLA-driven Provisioning for Cloud Applications

Karl Aberer, Nicolas Bonvin

Significant achievements have been made for automated allocation of cloud resources. However, the performance of applications may be poor in peak load periods, unless their cloud resources are dynamically adjusted. Moreover, although cloud resources dedica ...

Optimization of electroacoustic absorbers by means of designed experiments

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet

In multivariate systems, when it comes to identifying actual operating conditions ranges, or optimal settings, the use of constrained optimization is often required. Among the different tools for the engineer to perform such optimization, designed experime ...

Simulation of thermal stresses in anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell stacks. Part II: Loss of gas-tightness, electrical contact and thermal buckling

Daniel Favrat, Jan Van Herle, Arata Nakajo, Zacharie Wuillemin

Structural stability issues in planar solid oxide fuel cells arise from the mismatch between the coefficients of thermal expansion of the components. The stress state at operating temperature is the superposition of several contributions, which differ depe ...

Shunt loudspeaker techniques for use as liners for engine nacelles

Hervé Lissek

In this paper, the liner concept is an electroacoustic transducer which acoustic impedance can be changed by electrical means, be it passive or active. Among the different ways to obtain variable acoustic properties on an electroacoustic transducer's voici ...
