Corrosion Properties of F82H in Flowing High Temperature Pressurized Water

This work reports the effects of water flow and dissolved oxygen (DO) on corrosion behavior of reduced activation ferritic/martensitic steel, F82H. The corrosion tests were performed in high temperature pressurized water by using a test apparatus for rotated disk sample. All of specimens showed weight gains after static corrosion tests up to 500 h. However, the rotated disk showed weight losses...

High Temperature Experiments for Circuit Self-Recovery

* Chromatech Alameda CA 94501 Abstract. Temperature and radiation tolerant electronics, as well as long life survivability are key capabilities required for future NASA missions. Current approaches to electronics for extreme environments focus on component level robustness and hardening. Compensation techniques such as bias cancellation circuitry have also been employed. However, current techno...

Semester Project Heat Pump Integration in Industrial Processes - II

This semester project follows a previous project at LENI-EPFL [10] and aims at nding the best optimization approach in terms of Heat Pump integration in industrial processes. The MultiObjectiveOptimization method chosen seeks the minimum of both operating and investment costs related to HP purchase. Di erent optimization approaches are tested in order to nd the best solution in terms of feasibi...

An algorithm for optimal waste heat recovery from chemical processes

We describe a computer algorithm designed to calculate the optimal energy extraction in the form of heat used for steam raising from chemical processes. The concepts are illustrated using chemical plant stream data in a process with multiple distillation columns. Pinch analysis is first applied to find the grand composite curve (GCC) of the problem, which is then used by the algorithm to determ...
