Review of Recent Developments in Wave Rotor Combustion Technology
For some decades, efforts have been made to exploit nonsteady combustion and gas dynamic phenomenon. The theoretical potential of nonsteady-flowmachines has led to the investigation of various oscillatoryflowdevices suchas pulse detonation engines, wave rotors, pulse jets, and nonsteady ejectors. This paper aims to provide a progress review of past and current research in developing a particula...
متن کاملDark Energy: Recent Developments *
A six parameter cosmological model, involving a vacuum energy density that is extremely tiny compared to fundamental particle physics scales, describes a large body of increasingly accurate astronomical data. In a first part of this brief review we summarize the current situation, emphasizing recent progress. An almost infinitesimal vacuum energy is only the simplest candidate for a cosmologica...
متن کاملRecent developments in configuration design and optimization of mineral separation circuits; A Review
The present research reviews two basic approaches for the separation circuit configuration analysis. The first approach is to optimize the circuit configuration. In this method, after a circuit modeling, a variety of search algorithms and mathematical optimization methods are used. Previous works show that this approach has more application in the flotation process. The second approach called t...
متن کاملPs Frog: a Point-absorber Wave Energy Converter Working in a Pitch/surge Mode
In studies of wave energy, notably those made under contract to the U.K. Department of Energy, capital costs have generally been _found too high to compete with other sources It has been shown elsewhere (1) that the large structural element in these costs can be avoided by using point-absorbers reacting against an internal moving mass. This early proposal (2) suffers from the disadvantage that ...
متن کاملOn the Short-term Uncertainty in Performance of a Point Absorber Wave Energy Converter
INTRODUCTION Of interest, in this study, is the quantification of uncertainty in the performance of a two-body wave point absorber (Reference Model 3 or RM3), which serves as a wave energy converter (WEC). We demonstrate how simulation tools may be used to establish short-term relationships between any performance parameter of the WEC device and wave height in individual sea states. We demonstr...
