Abstract:
Master thesis discusses the growing need of electric energy storage and its effectivity and capacity. It describes an overview of possible technologies with their advantages and disadvantages. Greater attention is paid to the storage of energy in gas, so-called Power to Gas, which combines the electrolytic production of hydrogen from water and the Sabatier reaction to produce synthetic methane. This technology is introduced in the so-called SIT Brno cycle of Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery company. The main part of the thesis is focused on the description of this cycle and on the calculation

In brackish groundwater desalination, high recovery ratio (of fresh water from saline feed) is desired to minimise concentrate reject. To this effect, previous studies have developed a batch reverse osmosis (RO) desalination system, DesaLink, which proposed to expand steam in a reciprocating piston cylinder and transmit the driving force through a linkage crank mechanism to pressurise batches of saline water (recirculating) in a water piston cylinder unto RO membranes. However, steam is largely disadvantaged at operation from low temperature (< 150oC) thermal sources; and organic working fluid

Abstract:
Au moins 30% de l'énergie produite par les moteurs à combustion interne est dissipée sous forme de chaleur dans les gaz d'échappement. L'intérêt des constructeurs pour les systèmes de récupération de chaleur bases sur le cycle thermodynamique de Rankine est justifié par des réductions de consommation espérées entre 5 et 10%. L'ambition de cette thèse est de contribuer à lever les principaux verrous liés à la gestion des procédés Rankine pour des applications ≪ mobiles ≫. Ce manuscrit s'appuie sur trois cas d'étude avec, pour chacun, un procédé pilote destiné à être intégré respectivement sur d

Abstract:
Two-thirds of the energy produced by an internal combustion engine (ICE) is lost into waste heat through the coolant and the exhaust gas; hence, studying Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) systems is of vital importance. The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is a powerful system to recover low-grade heat and transform it into electrical energy. This thesis aimed at developing and testing a Model Predictive Control (MPC) system that ensures a safe operation of a system that constitutes an ICE bottomed by an ORC unit. The experimentation was carried out at the DTU Mekanik laboratories and was divided into dif

Abstract:
Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) heat engines convert low-grade heat to other forms of energy such as electrical and mechanical energy. They achieve this by vaporizing and expanding the organic fluid at high pressure, turning the turbine which can be employed to run an alternator or any other mechanism as desired. Conventional Rankine Cycles operate with steam at temperatures above 400 ℃. The broad aspect of the research focussed on the generation of electricity to cater for household needs. Solar energy would be used to heat air which would in turn heat rocks in an insulated vessel. This would act

Abstract:
La récupération de chaleur dans les véhicules est une solution prometteuse permettant de réduire la consommation du moteur et de ses émissions. Les fortes contraintes de poids, compacité et coût présentes dans le domaine automobile empêchent l’intégration d’un système de récupération de chaleur dans le véhicule. Une solution proposée dans ce travail consiste en un système de multi-génération appelé ReverCycle. Ce dernier fonctionne avec trois modes: climatisation à compression de vapeur, cycle de Rankine Organique (ORC) et cycle de réfrigération à éjecteur. Le système peut assurer un seul mode
