Abstract:

This study mainly focuses on enhancing the overall efficiency of gas transmission networks. The authors developed a model with detailed characteristics of compressor and pressure reduction stations. Following this, they suggested three different systems with gas turbine including: organic rankine cycle (ORC), air bottoming cycle (ABC), and ABC along with steam injection (SI-ABC). In addition, use of turbo-expander as a good alternative to the expansion valves was also studied. Performance of proposed cycles was investigated on a real case study for natural gas transmission network. Results showed that the highest efficiency would be obtained with ORC system where n-pentane was used as the working fluid and turbo-expander was considered in pressure reduction stations Moreover, the efficiency improvement was estimated to be 22% averagely in comparison with the existing network where the flow was in the span of 50 up to 90 MMSCMD.

the role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union

پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...

Energy Efficiency of MIMO Transmission Strategies in Wireless Sensor Networks

In this paper, a cooperative and hierarchical wireless sensor network is considered. By allowing sensor nodes in close proximity to cooperate in transmission, and by introducing a powerful mobile agent equipped with an antenna array to collect data, a virtual MIMO channel can be formed, on which recent advances in MIMO technologies can be applied. Analysis in the wideband regime reveals that, w...
