In this research, DTA and TGA curves of titanium hydride powder in air with the heating rates of 5, 10, 20, 25, 30ºC/min were drawn, and XRD patterns of titanium hydride powder during heating rate 10ºC/min were prepared. Results showed that hydrogen comes out of titanium hydride in air during seven stages. And, by increasing heating rate, the mechanism of hydrogen emission from titanium hydride...

Feed-water heating repowering is defined as using gas turbine(s) flue gasses energy for recovery by steam plant feed water heaters. Minimizing related total cost in new thermal system is the critical subject, beside of this purpose an optimal balance between capital cost investment and exergy destruction should be considered. In this research feed water heating repowering modeling of Shahid Ra...
