In this article, modeling and optimization of power consumption of two–stage compressed air system has been investigated. To do so, the two – stage compressed air cycle with intercooler of FAJR Petroleum Company was considered. This cycle includes two centrifugal compressors, a shell, and a tube intercooler. For modeling of power consumption, actual compressors isentropic efficiencies and inter...

The effect of partial slip and temperature dependent fluid properties on the MHD mixed convection flow from a heated, non-linearly stretching surface in the presence of radiation and non-uniform internal heat generation/absorption is investigated. The velocity of the stretching surface was assumed to vary according to power-law form. Thermal transport is analyzed for two types of non-isothermal...

The present paper investigates the reliability and sensitivity analysis of a coal handling unit of a thermal power plant using a probabilistic approach. Coal handling unit is the main block of a thermal power plant and it is necessary for a good function of a power plant that its power supply, which is dealt in coal handling unit, must function continuously without any obstacle. The configurati...

background: in this study, measurement of indoor radon and its progeny levels was carried out in gas turbine power station in haryana ( india ), where natural gas is used as fuel. for comparison, the results of a study carried out in thermal power plant in haryana are also presented. radon being a ubiquitous air pollutant has global impact and its monitoring in the environment at work places is...

With the increasing clock rate and transistor count of today’s microprocessors, power dissipation is becoming a critical component of system design complexity. Thermal and power-delivery issues are becoming especially critical for high-performance computing systems. In this work, we investigate dynamic thermal management as a technique to control CPU power dissipation. With the increasing usage...

In this report we introduce the procedure for performing a thermo mechanical design and analysis of thermal GaAs-based MEMS devices. It will provide the procedure how thermal analysis should be made and model equations used to describe conduction, convection, radiation and mechanical effects caused by nonhomogenous temperature distribution. This is demonstrated on the design of Micromechanical ...
