  1. 21. Gas Turbine Plant Modeling for Dynamic Simulation

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Samson Endale Turie; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Gas turbines have become effective in industrial applications for electric and thermal energy production partly due to their quick response to load variations. A gas turbine power plant is a complex assembly of a varietyof components that are designed on the basis of aero thermodynamiclaws. READ MORE

  2. 22. Parametric Study on the Aeroelastic Stability of Rotor Seals

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Qingyuan Zhuang; [2012]
    Keywords : Aeromechanics; turbomachinery; labyrinth seal; flutter; CFD; FEM;

    Abstract : Labyrinth seals are widely used in rotating machinery and have been shown to experience aeroelastic instabilities. The rapid development of computational fluid dynamics now provides a high fidelity approach for predicting the aeroelastic behavior of labyrinth seals in three dimension and exhibits great potential within industrial application, especially during the detailed design stages.

  3. 23. WIND DEVELOPMENT IN WALLONIA

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Najoua GHAZALI; [2011]
    Keywords : wind energy; wind farm development; Nordex; Belgium; Wallonia; grid code; grid connection requirements;

    Abstract : Nordex, a wind-turbine manufacturer and developer, has just launched the development activity over Belgium’s French-speaking Region – the Walloon Region – with the current political context favorable to wind energy deployment. Since the Walloon market is unknown, the master thesis aims to identify the appropriate approach to use for optimal wind farm development and the critical issues that may impinge on it. READ MORE

  4. 24. Analysis and Evaluation of the Wavebox Wave Energy Converter

    University essay from Elektricitetslära

    Author : Björn Gotthardsson; [2010]

  5. 25. Monitoring of Lubricant Degradation with RULER and MPC

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Emma Maguire; [2010]
    Keywords : Lubricant oxidation; RULER; MPC;

    Abstract : Traditional oil analysis methods - e.g. acidity and viscosity measurements - have been used to monitor lubricant conditions. These methods can detect when the useful life of a lubricant is over but fall short when trying to gain insight on how long a lubricant in current use could last. READ MORE
