in this paper, a recurrent fuzzy-neural network (rfnn) controller with neural network identifier in direct control model is designed to control the speed and exhaust temperature of the gas turbine in a combined cycle power plant. since the turbine operation in combined cycle unit is considered, speed and exhaust temperature of the gas turbine should be simultaneously controlled by fuel command ...

The influences of different diesel/biodiesel blends and EGR rate on brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC), exhaust gas temperature, NO, HC, CO emissions, are studied and demonstrated. In this paper a four stroke direct injection, water cooled, diesel engine was used. Biodiesel either in neat form or as a blend with diesel fuel is extensively investigated to solve the twin problem of reduction ...

The paper presents a simulation investigation of using molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) combined with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) or selective (SEGR) to reduce CO2 emission from the turbine in order cope climate change problem. EGR SEGR can be used concentrate low-concentration exhausts. concentration is then raised further by adding MCFC’s cathode. suggested gas–steam cycle system paired ...

Due to the large contribution of the coldstart process to unburned hydrocarbon emissions of an internal combustion engine during FTP cycle tests, we take a new look at the production of hydrocarbons inside the combustion chamber during coldstart. To this end a model is developed which predicts the exhaust port hydrocarbon concentration, exhaust gas temperature and equivalence ratio based on a s...

Engine noise is mainly from exhaust noise. Without adding muffler, at a certain speed, the noise up to 100 decibels. Reduce engine exhaust noise, and to high-temperature exhaust gas can be safely and effectively. Muffler as part of exhaust pipe, should ensure that the exhaust flow, resistance and sufficient strength. This research takes an exhaust silencer as a study object, and a muffler sound...

BACKGROUND It is unclear what factors affect the uptake of sevoflurane administered through the membrane oxygenator during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and whether this can be monitored via the oxygenator exhaust gas. METHODS Stable delivery of sevoflurane was administered to 30 elective cardiac surgery patients at 1.8 vol% (inspiratory) via the anaesthetic circuit and ventilator. During CPB,...

batch culture of ralstonia eutropha using the recycled gas closed circuit culture system was conducted in order to develop a practical fermentation system for industrial autotrophic culture for poly (hydroxybutrate) production. the gas phase of the culture system consisted of substrate gas so that gases in this culture could be recycled as long as the amount of the gas consumed would be repleni...

In this paper we analyze the nonlinear dynamic be havior of an internal exhaust gas recirculation system based on the mean value model of an experimental en gine equipped with a camshaft phaser We develop a dynamic camshaft timing schedule that regulates the in ternal exhaust gas recirculation system while maintain ing transient engine torque response similar to an engine with zero exhaust gas ...

In the Modern scenario, the naturally available resources for power generation are being depleted at an alarming rate; firstly due to wastage of power at consumer end, secondly due to inefficiency of various power system components. A Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) integrates two cycles- Brayton cycle (Gas Turbine) and Rankine cycle (Steam Turbine) with the objective of increasing overall pl...
