On Establishing Buckling Knockdowns for Imperfection-Sensitive Shell Structures

Emmanuel Georges Albert Virot

This paper investigates issues that have arisen in recent efforts to revise long-standing knockdown factors for elastic shell buckling, which are widely regarded as being overly conservative for well-constructed shells. In particular, this paper focuses on ...

Optimal heat pump integration in industrial processes

François Maréchal, Ivan Daniel Kantor, Maziar Kermani, Anna Sophia Wallerand

Among the options for industrial waste heat recovery and reuse which are currently discussed, heat pumping receives far less attention than other technologies (e.g. organic rankine cycles). This, in particular, can be linked to a lack of comprehensive meth ...

Interaction of a rotating two-phase flow with the pressure and torque stability of a reversible pump-turbine operating in condenser mode.

François Avellan, Elena Vagnoni, Loïc Andolfatto, Pierre Leroy

The operation of a reversible pump-turbine in condenser mode requires to dewater the impeller by closing the guide vanes and injecting compressed air in the draft tube cone to reduce the friction torque on the impeller blades. A water discharge is injected ...

Effect of a collar on subsidence and local micromotion of cementless femoral stems: in vitro comparative study based on micro-computerised tomography

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Valérie Hélène Emilie Malfroy Camine

Purpose The aim of this study is to quantitatively compare the difference in primary stability between collarless and collared versions of the same femoral stem. Specifically, we tested differences in subsidence and micromotion. Methods Collarless and coll ...

Turbocompressors for Domestic Heat Pumps – A Critical Review

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Jean-Baptiste Carré

Small-scale, oil-free radial compressors on gas lubricated bearings represent a promising alternative to state-of-the-art compressor technology for driving domestic sized heat pumps. The inherent characteristics of turbocompressors manage to fit the heat p ...

ORC Driven Heat Pump Running on Gas Bearings for Domestic Applications: Proof of Concept and Thermo-Economic Improvement Potential

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Violette Mounier

ORC driven Heat Pumps (HP-ORC) offer a promising technology of thermally driven heat pumps (TDHPs) for domestic applications. Recently, a 40 kW HP-ORC unit based on gas supported turbomachinery has been investigated in which the ORC radial turbine drives t ...

Testing and modelling of a novel oil-free co-rotating scroll machine with water injection

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Luis Carlos Mendoza Toledo

Efficient compressed air energy storage requires reversible isothermal compression and expansion devices. The isothermal compression and expansion processes can either be approached by several stages with intercooling or by the more convenient injection of ...

The Role of Impeller Outflow Conditions on the Performance of Vaned Diffusers

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann

Highly loaded impellers, typically used in turbocharger and gas turbine applications, exhaust an unsteady, transonic flow that is nonuniform across the span and pitch and swirling at angles approaching tangential. With the exception of the flow angle, conf ...
