Prediction of Wind Loadings on Offshore Wind Turbines Using CFDAbstract Analysing the structural response of offshore wind turbines (OWTs) requires a robust method to estimate environmental loadings associated with extreme weather conditions. This study aimed to accurately predict wind loadings on a non-rotating OWT using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code, Ansys [...] 893 7404 |
An 800V End to End SiC Powertrain to Accommodate Extremely Fast Chargingby
Naireeta Deb
and
Rajendra Singh
Abstract Widespread adoption of electric vehicles has presented the challenges of short range and prolonged charging time. Going forward, extremely fast charging is the only solution to these problems. However, the typical Silicon power electronics supported 400 V electric vehicle powertrain cannot live up t [...] 956 7392 |
A Combined Power and Ejector Refrigeration Cycle System for Thermal Energy Recovery from the Waste Heat of Internal Combustion EngineAbstract In this paper, due to the importance of energy recovery from internal combustion engines and the increasing human growing need for power and refrigeration, a two-cycle power and refrigeration system consisting of an organic Rankine cycle and an ejector refrigeration cycle is investigated analyticall [...] 613 4763 |
Co-development of Low-speed Electric Community Buses for Local Area RevitalizationAbstract This paper describes the development of low-speed electric community buses (LSECBs) designed by the author's group and their spread situation in Japan. LSECBs are electric vehicles that can travel on public roads at speeds of less than 5.56 m/s (20&l [...] 634 5274 |
Green Energy Sources Reduce Carbon Footprint of Oil & Gas Industry Processes: A ReviewAbstract In recent years, the oil and gas sector has been moving towards green production methods to achieve net-zero emission goals. Governments and corporations have started large-scale initiatives to deploy advanced technologies to reduce carbon footprints and prevent global warming. Herein, we have explo [...] 1045 8268 |
Significance of Insulation and Heat Pumps in Decarbonising the UKby
Andrew Williams
and
Murray Thomson
Abstract This paper examines the economic case for the UK to proceed urgently with the installation of thermal insulation and heat pumps in most UK buildings, in the context of the legal requirement to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. A recent study by the same authors assumed that such [...] 842 6191 |
