An investigation of the feasibility of a process-intensified differential temperature water-gas shift reactor with integrated Pt/Al2O3 catalyst

Creator:: Hu, Kathy Q.
Abstract:: There has been serious interest in hydrogen as a source of energy in the United States due to its capability of delivering a sustainable, carbon-free energy future. Currently, most hydrogen in the United States is produced via the steam methane reforming of natural gas, which converts methane to hydrogen through...

Investigation of Seasonal Performance of a Membrane Heat Pump System in Different Climate Regions

Creator:: Bukshaisha, Ahmad A.
Abstract:: Membrane based heat pumps systems have attracted the attention of many research groups as a potentially more environmentally friendly alternative to vapor compression systems that are being used for space cooling in 90\% of the buildings in the United States. Several prototypes systems have been developed, with reported claims of...

The Feasibility of Process Intensification of the Water-Gas Shift Reaction using Differential Temperature Microreactors

Creator:: Tolley, Thomas E.
Abstract:: Hydrogen is an increasingly attractive low-carbon energy carrier for a variety of stationary and mobile applications. Currently, the vast majority of hydrogen in the United States is produced via the energy intensive steam reforming of natural gas. The cost and carbon emissions associated with hydrogen production can be reduced by...

Computer and heating and air conditioning

Creator:: Hafez, Ghassan M. Ihsan
Abstract:: The repetitious nature of air conditioning calculation leads to arithmetic errors and a high cost of designing air conditioning systems. Short cut calculations are employed to limit the calculation and the chance of making errors. Computers with their high speed of calculation and the ability to make limited "logic's decisions...

Experimental Validation of the Hydrodynamic Coefficients for an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter

Creator:: Bentivoglio, Marine M. J.
Abstract:: Resulting from the action of wind over open water surfaces, water waves contain colossal amounts of energy that has not yet been harnessed. Seen as a very promising source for renewable energy generation, many studies have tried to make wave energy a cost competitive source by investigating optimal designs of...

Student Club Analysis: The Effects of Organizational Structuring on Competition Performance

Creator:: Chandler, Jacob J.
Abstract:: This thesis aims to explore the effects of organizational and management principles within the context of a student club – an international Formula Student team. Research on the effects of organizational structuring on student club performance tends to be qualitative in nature. While considering the inherent complexity of the human...

Evaluation of thermal energy storage requirements for a geothermal based district heating system

Creator:: Lawrence, Thomas M.
Abstract:: The thermal energy storage requirements for a district heating system utilizing geothermal energy is evaluated with respect to the system design heating load and local climatic conditions. The local climate pattern is represented by a series of events which characterize the nature and sequence of the cold spells that can...

Advancing Wind Systems Design through Optimization and Improved Modeling

Creator:: Miller, Annalise M.
Abstract:: Wind energy plays an important and growing role in the US energy profile. While other countries have expanded their wind industries into offshore development, large investment costs have hindered progress in the US offshore market despite the larger and more consistent resource available offshore. In this research, I explore the...

Data-Driven Numerical Modelling of an Oscillating Water Column from Physical Tank Testing Data

Creator:: McKee, Aisha I.
Abstract:: Wave Energy Converters (WEC) have great potential to help meet global energy demands, but even a single device can be challenging to model. Although most WEC concepts are modelled, many have been simplified with assumptions that do not accurately capture the true dynamics of the system. For this reason, data-driven...

Computer simulation of a combined-cycle biomass-fueled power plant

Creator:: Fox, Stephen John
Abstract:: This thesis presents thermodynamic evaluations of various biomass-fueled combined-cycle power plants using a computer model developed for simulating such plants. The combined-cycle systems Investigated are characterized by having a wood-fueled combustor, an indirect-fired gas turbine, and a steam cycle. This work was part of a larger biomass energy project at...
