Exergy Recovery During Liquefied Natural Gas Regasification Using Methane as Working Fluid

François Maréchal, Francesco Baldi, Francesca Belfiore

The increased concerns about the effect of human activities on the climate have pushed natural gas among the most obvious solutions for the transition to a low-carbon economy. The growing importance and volumes of liquefied natural gas for transportation o ...

Gaznat se tourne vers l’EPFL

Prof. Laloui discussed some of the major challenges facing CO2 geosequestration, a technology which could be vital in Switzerland’s transition away from nuclear as this may mean increased reliance on natural gas. Many of these challenges, such as cap rock ...

Analysis and Reduction of Time Response in Thermally Activated Shape Memory Alloys

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Mario Joe Lehmann, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet, Sean Thomas

This paper aims to study the factors that affect the time response of Shape Memory Alloys (SMA) and establish a method to improve their activation times. In this work, different parameters such as the number, positions and orientation of the perforations o ...

Thermal pumping gas viscometer for Wobbe Index determination

Gaël André Léon Farine

Natural gas is defined as a combustible mixture of hydrocarbons coming from ground deposits and it is mainly used as a source of energy for burners and motors. Its consumption is increasing worldwide, as this represents a cheap and abundant source of energ ...

The diffusion layer is a critical factor affecting the temporal response of electrochemical devices. In this article, we have investigated the effect of the relaxation of the diffusion layer during the potentiodynamic sensing of ferrocenemethanol (FcMeOH) ...

Elsevier2015

Associated gases at oil wells are often rich in heavy hydrocarbons (HHC, here denoting hydrocarbons heavier than methane). HHC may cause handling and combustion difficulties as their properties are different from standard natural gas, therefore HHC rich as ...

Investigation of the thermal effects in nanofluidic transport and their application in gating

Mojtaba Taghipoor

Scaling down to nanometer size fluidic conduits has opened a new window into the world of sensing and manipulation of nanoscale species. Thousands of publications and hundreds of patents in this field are only a starting point for exploring and manipulatin ...

Experimental Characterization of Drobot: Towards Closed-Loop Control

Massimo Mastrangeli, Pierre Lambert

This paper presents advances in the development of a microrobotic platform actuated by three liquid droplets in a gaseous environment (Drop-bot or Drobot). Drobot builds on the bubble robotics concept earlier introduced by Lenders [1]. A new platform desig ...

Vertical localization performance in a practical 3-D WFS formulation

Hervé Lissek, Lukas Rohr

Vertical localization performance in a practical wave field synthesis formulation is investigated. The implemented 3-D rendering method allows precise sound source reproduction while taking into account practical constraints such as the required number of ...
