Design and testing of an integrated wildlife-wind turbine interactions detection system

Creator:: Flowers, Jeremy Matthew
Abstract:: Bird and bat mortalities caused by interactions with wind turbines is a critical concern that requires addressing for conservation purposes. Deploying a low cost sensor array will be instrumental during site permitting, conducting impact assessments of existing wind farms, and assessing efficacy of wildlife mortality mitigation or wildlife deterrent technologies....

Event detection for avian and bat wildlife on wind turbine blades

Creator:: Drachnik, Nicholas
Abstract:: Countries have begun to adopt green energy initiatives requiring high percentages of power generation to come from clean energy sources. Both onshore and offshore wind energy generates reliable clean energy. Due to this, wind energy has had an exponential growth in global adoption. While wind energy is increasingly adopted by...

Wave Energy Converter Array Optimization : Algorithm Development and Investigation of Layout Design Influences

Creator:: Sharp, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Realizing the vast amount of energy available in ocean waves, an industry has emerged that is progressing towards the deployment of grid–connected wave energy converters. Likely to be deployed in arrays, a challenge to the wave energy industry is maximizing the energy production of such arrays. We have been developing...

Evaluation of Materials for Use in Open-Cycle Magnetohydrodynamic Power Generation

Creator:: Bowen, Michael S.
Abstract:: Recent interest in oxy-fuel combustion for carbon capture, as well as advancements in technologies such as magnetics, materials, and computational modeling has sparked renewed interest in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power generation. The increased temperatures of oxy-fuel combustion versus air-fuel combustion poses a challenge in the selection of materials for plasma exposed...

Transient conduction with counter mass flow in wood

Creator:: Pfeiffer, Nikolaus, 1960-
Abstract:: This paper deals with the thermal decompositon of wood slabs under fire conditions. The partial differential equation is solved numerically by the use of an implicit finite difference method. Wood is treated as two components, Lignin and Hemicellulose on one side, and Cellulose on the other side. The chemical reactions...

Computer model for estimating cogeneration system performance and economic feasibility

Creator:: Simonds, John E.
Abstract:: Cogeneration is the simultaneous generation and use of both electricity (or mechanical power) and thermal energy from a single fuel source. It is a technology that has been used for years by industries, commercial institutions, and municipalities that need both heat and electrical power. An analytical approach has been developed...

Analysis of spillway hydrodynamics for total dissolved gas prediction downstream of hydropower projects with free, plunging spillway jets

Creator:: Germann, Nathan A.
Abstract:: During spring and early summer hydropower projects are often forced to spill water through their spillways due to increased river flows of the runoff season. Flows which are directed through spillways--instead of through turbines--contain a substantial amount of energy. Stemming from the high energy content, spillway flows entrain air at...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
