Applications and numerical investigation of differential-algebraic equations
Milton, David Ian Murray (2010-05-01)Differential-algebraic equations (DAEs) result in many areas of science and engineer- ing. In this thesis, numerical methods for solving DAEs are compared for two prob- lems, energy-economic models and traffic flow models. ... -
Energy-economic model for transition to renewables
Mizanski, John S. (2013-05-01)Presented in this thesis is a macro-economic model based on a three-factor production function, utilizing energy, capital, and labour as the three production factors. With a primary focus on energy production we include ... -
Mass transport in the cathode electrode of a molten carbonate fuel cell
Findlay, Justin Earl (2009-04-01)A molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) is an electro-chemical energy conversion technology that runs on natural gas and employs a molten salt electrolyte. In order to keep the electrolyte in this state, the cell must be kept ... -
Multi-dimensional modeling of transient transport phenomena in molten carbonate fuel cells
Yousef Ramandi, Masoud (2012-06-01)Molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFCs) have become an attractive emerging technology for stationary co-generation of heat and power. From a technical perspective, dynamic operation has a significant effect on the fuel cell ... -
Thermodynamic analysis of molten carbonate fuel cell systems
Rashidi, Ramin (2008-12-01)This study deals with the thermodynamic analysis of a molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) hybrid system to determine its efficiencies, irreversibilities and performance.The analysis includes a performance investigation of ...
