Scale limitations of gas bearing supported turbocompressors for vapor compression cycles

An analysis of single-stage centrifugal compressors supported on dynamic, gas lubricated bearings for driving vapor compression cycles suggests that the maximum feasible compressor power is limited, primarily by the bearing load capacity, in the range from ...

Real-time optimization of load sharing for gas compressors in the presence of uncertainty

Dominique Bonvin, Timm Faulwasser, Alejandro Gabriel Marchetti, Predrag Milosavljevic

This paper investigates the problem of load-sharing optimization of gas compressors in the presence of uncertainty. The objective is to operate a set of compressor units in an energy-efficient way, while at the same time meeting a varying load demand. The ...

The Role of Reynolds Number Effect and Tip Leakage in Compressor Geometry Scaling at Low Turbulent Reynolds Numbers

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Markus Diehl, Christoph Schreiber

In compressor design, a convenient way to save time is to scale an existing geometry to required specifications, rather than developing a new design. The approach works well when scaling compressors of similar size at high Reynolds numbers but becomes more ...

Power Maximization and Fatigue-Load Mitigation in a Wind-turbine Array by Active Yaw Control: an LES Study

Fernando Porté Agel, Mou Lin

In this study, we perform a multi-objective parametric study for an array of three miniature wind turbines subjected to active yaw control (AYC), with the objectives of maximizing the power and minimizing the fatigue loads. Using the time series extracted ...

Amplitude analysis of the B+ -> pi(+)pi(+)pi(-) decay

Olivier Schneider, Aurelio Bay, Yiming Li, Guido Haefeli, Frédéric Blanc, Christoph Frei, Tatsuya Nakada, Michel De Cian, Luca Pescatore, Chitsanu Khurewathanakul

The results of an amplitude analysis of the charmless three-body decay B+ -> pi(+)pi(+)pi(-) , in which CP-violation effects are taken into account, are reported. The analysis is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb(-1) ...

Mechanical and hydraulic transport properties of transverse-isotropic Gneiss deformed under deep reservoir stress and pressure conditions

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Mateo Alejandro Acosta

In central Europe, many geo-energy reservoirs have revealed to be hosted in transverse isotropic crystalline rock, where the rock's mechanical and hydraulic transport properties are poorly constrained. Here, we performed triaxial experiments on Cresciano G ...

Comparative study between Cubic and Ellipsoidal Fokker-Planck kinetic models

Mohammadhossein Gorji

Motivated by improving the performance of particle-based Monte-Carlo simulations in the transitional regime, Fokker–Planck kinetic models have been devised and studied as approximations of the Boltzmann collision operator. By generalizing the linear drift ...

Wind farm power optimization via yaw angle control: A wind tunnel study

Fernando Porté Agel, Majid Bastankhah

Yaw angle control is known nowadays as a promising and effective technique to mitigate wake effects in wind farms. In this paper, we perform wind tunnel experiments to study the performance of a model wind farm with five turbine rows under a wide variety o ...
