Hybridization of single flash geothermal power plant with biomass driven SCO2 topping cycle
Mutlu, Balkan; Kazanç Özerinç, Feyza; Baker, Derek Keıth; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2020-9)
This study investigates the hybridization scenario of Kızıldere-1 single flash geothermal power plant with a biomass driven recompression sCO2 topping cycle where a solid local biomass source, olive residue, is used as a fuel. The combustion characteristics, kinetic parameters and slagging-fouling potential of the fuel are determined using TGA, Coats-Redfern Method and XRF analysis, respectively. The apparent activation energies for two observed major stages of combustion under the heating rate of 20 °C/...
Hybridizing physical optics with MLFMA for efficient scattering computations of three-dimensional complex targets
Manyas, Alp; Ergül, Özgür Salih; Gürel, Levent (2009-07-23)
The multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) provides accurate and efficient solutions of electromagnetic scattering problems involving large and complicated structures. On the other hand, whenever applicable, accelerations provided by approximation techniques can be useful to further improve the efficiency of solutions. In this paper, we present a hybrid technique, which combines the physical-optics (PO) method and MLFMA for efficient scattering computations of three-dimensional objects. We show that, w...
Hybrid energy harvester using piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties of PZT 5A ceramics
Koyuncuoğlu, Aziz; Zorlu, Özge; Okutucu Özyurt, Hanife Tuba; Külah, Haluk (2013-07-15)
This paper presents a novel hybrid piezoelectric-pyroelectric energy harvester using a cantilever beam with a PZT tip mass. The cantilever is moving between two surfaces with different temperatures under external vibration. PZT ceramic is used as the piezoelectric material, which also has pyroelectric characteristics. By using the pyroelectric effect along with the piezoelectric one, the output RMS voltage of the PZT ceramic was enhanced up to 10% under 50°C ΔT.
Hybridized PV and CSP for Desalination: Techno-Economic Analysis of Reverse Osmosis Desalination Plant Powered by Hybridized PV and CSP Systems for Irrigation Water
Gedik, Eylul; Alarcon-Padilla, Diego-Cesar; Baker, Derek Keıth (2022-8-17)
Large market opportunities exist for solar powered Reverse Osmosis (RO) desalination tech-nologies in fertile but arid areas with large solar and sea water resources. A challenge to real-izing these markets is the variable nature of solar resources, which for the desalination plant can lead to high water costs due to low capacity factors (CF) and increased maintenance costs due to repeated start-ups and shut-downs. A potential solution is to power RO plants using both PV and CSP with Thermal Energy Storage ...
Hybrid Energy Harvesting From Keyboard
Beker, Levent; Zorlu, Ozge; Külah, Haluk; Muhtaroglu, Ali (2011-12-02)
This paper presents a hybrid energy harvester which combines piezoelectric (PZT) and electromagnetic (EM) transduction mechanisms to scavenge vibration energy from a keyboard. The system comprises of improvements to the dome structure presented in previous studies, in which only PZT transduction mechanism was used to harvest 16.95 mu W of experimentally verified power. An in-house modeling and simulation tool is first introduced in this work to evaluate the integration of EM transduction into the PZT system...
