Abstract:
Commercial pressures to reduce time-scales encourage innovation in the design and analysis cycle of gas turbine combustion systems. The migration of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) from the purview of the specialist into a routine analysis tool is crucial to achieve these reductions and forms the focus of this research. Two significant challenges were identified: reducing the time-scale for creating and solving a CFD prediction and reducing the level of expertise required to perform a prediction.

Abstract:
In a thermally equilibrated system, electron behavior in a metal is described by the Fermi-Dirac equation. With ultrafast lasers, electrons can be excited into temporary distributions which are not described by the Fermi-Dirac equation and are therefore not at a well-defined temperature. These nonthermal distributions quickly equilibrate through two primary processes: electron-electron scattering and electron-phonon scattering. In most situations, these effects are unnoticeable, since they are completed within 5 ps. A probabilistic numerical model for electron-electron scattering is presented.

Coherent parametric emission of the second harmonic radiation ocurred in the presence of a symmetry-breaking magnetic field by means of a coherent electric-quadrupole emission at twice the laser frequency.

A system for the dynamic preparation of reference gas mixtures based on the diffusion technique has been developed by the National Metrology Institute of Italy i.e. the Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica (INRIM). The gravimetric method used for the estimation of the diffusion rate and consequent concentration, gives the system the property to be a primary standard. The system can generate mixtures with low uncertainty and high stability in the 20 nmol.mol-1 - 2.5 µmol.mol-1 concentration range with a 5% (k = 2) expanded uncertainty for mixtures of acetone in air. Based on this system,

Abstract:
The continued drive to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions in order to mitigate climate change has led to an increase in demand for low-carbon energy sources, and the development of new technologies to harness the available energy in the wind, waves and tides. Many controversies surround these technologies, however, particularly with regards to their economic cost, environmental impacts and the implications of the variability of their output for security of the electricity supply. In order to make informed policy decisions on future developments of the electricity system, it is necessary to

Abstract:
The main goal of my thesis is to carry out thermic calculations for adjusted conditions of electric and heat energy consumption. The power of the generator is 330 MW. In the proposal, you can find combustion trubines type GE 9171E. Steam-gas power plant is designed to combust metallurgical gases. Effort of the thesis focuses also on giving a new informations about trends in combinated production of electric and heat energy.
