Performance evaluation and boron rejection in a SWRO system under variable operating conditions

Variable operating conditions in distributed systems: modeling and evaluation

Performance and dependability evaluation plays a key role in the design of a broad range of systems, especially in the case strict requirements need to be met. This is particularly challenging in distributed contexts, where several components may interact among themselves influencing each other. In this paper, we present an analytical method that allows the study of a class of systems where dif...

Performance of Photovoltaics Under Actual Operating Conditions

A Real Time Condition Monitoring System for Gears Operating under Variable Load Conditions

Received Jun 9, 2017 Revised Nov 20, 2017 Accepted Dec 11, 2017 Gears are important component of the rotational power transmission system and are largely used in variable load and speed applications. The faults on the gear generate excessive vibration which leads to breakdown of the machine. Sensor based methods could diagnose gear faults but proved to be expensive and have limited applications...

A Performance Evaluation of Operating System Emulators

The concept of simulating one computer architecture on a system with a completely different architecture has existed for nearly as long as computers themselves. This technique, which has come to be known as emulation, is quickly changing the landscape of the world of computing. Technologies such as the Java programming language have brought emulation into the main stream. If this trend is to co...

Performance Evaluation of a Centrifugal Compressor Operating under Wet Gas Conditions

This paper presents the results of performance testing of a single-stage centrifugal compressor operating under wet gas conditions. The test was performed at an oil and gas operator’s test facility and was executed at full-load and full-pressure conditions using a mixture of hydrocarbon gas and hydrocarbon condensate. The effect of liquid was investigated by changing the gas-volume fraction bet...
