A MEMS Steam Generator
Previous work [1] has shown that MEMS technology has significant potential to create more compact, higherperforming hardware for chemical oxygen iodine lasers (COIL). In COILs, the laser medium is a flowing gas that must be pumped through the system at high mass flow rates to ensure proper system operation. As a result, compact pumps with high pumping rates are a key element of the COIL system....
متن کاملSimulation of a Standalone, Portable Steam Generator Driven by a Solar Concentrator
Solar energy is a good solution for energy-deficiency problems, especially in regions such as rural areas in the Middle East that have not been electrified yet or are under electrification. In this paper, with the aid of a Computational Fluid Dynamics simulation, we propose a system that comprises a trough solar concentrator and a pipe—with flowing water—that is set in the concentrator focus. T...
متن کاملArtificial Intelligence Techniques for Steam Generator Modelling
Inference system out performed the other methods in terms of accuracy and ease of implementation, while still achieving a fast execution time as well as a reasonable training time.
متن کاملFuture Metrology Needs for Synchrotron Radiation Mirrors
An international workshop on metrology for X-ray and neutron optics, the first of its kind, was held March 16-17, 2000, at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory. Engineers and scientists from around the world met to evaluate current metrology instrumentation and methods used to characterize the surface figure and finish of long, grazing-incidence optics used in synchrotron r...
متن کاملOverview of Steam Generator Tube-Inspection Technology
Degradation of steam generator (SG) tubing due to both mechanical and corrosion modes has resulted in extensive repairs and replacement of SGs around the world. The variety of degradation modes challenges the integrity of SG tubing and, therefore, the stations’ reliability. Inspection and monitoring aimed at timely detection and characterization of the degradation is a key element for ensuring ...
