Abstract:: The problem of heat transfer due to free convection in a channel formed by two parallel, isoflux, vertical plates is of considerable importance in electronic cooling applications, thermosiphons, the optimum spacing of plates or components, industrial stacks, heat exchangers, nuclear power plants and combustion involving vertical walls. Although in each...

Abstract:: This thesis is concerned with simulating two forms of energy retrieval. Standard computer programs are routinely used to simulate such energy systems. However, the accuracy of these simulations is not well documented. The main objective of the work presented here is to evaluate the validity of this type of simulation...

Creator:: Ranasinghe, Jatila
Abstract:: This report presents the analysis of ceramic heat exchangers for use in a combined-cycle, wood-fired power plant. The combined-cycle system investigated is characterized by having a wood-fueled combustor, an indirect-fired gas turbine, and a Rankine steam cycle. The direct use of low-grade fuels, such as wood, in present gas turbines...

Creator:: Brawn, Robert Charles
Abstract:: This report presents the off-design analysis of various wood-fired combined-cycle power plants using a computer model to simulate plant performance. The combined-cycle systems investigated are characterized by having a woodfueled combustor, an indirect-fired gas turbine, and a Rankine steam cycle. This work was conducted as part of a larger biomass...
