Industrial gas turbines allow operation with a wide variety of gaseous and liquid fuels. To determine the suitability for operation with a gas fuel system, various physical parameters of the proposed fuel need to be determined: heating value, dew point, JouleThompson coefficient, Wobbe index, and others. This paper describes an approach to provide a consistent treatment for determining the abov...

Fuel taxes have restrained growth in fuel demand and associated carbon emissions. Although fuel demand is large and growing, our analysis shows that it would have been much higher in the absence of domestic fuel taxes. People often assert t...

(1, T) policy for a Two-echelon Inventory System with Perishable-on-the-Shelf Items
