Modeling and control of O2/CO2 gas turbine cycle for CO2 capture
... ing fluid in the gas turbine. We will investigate dynamics and control of this semi-closed O2 /CO2 gas turbine cycle, where CO2 capture is achieved since some CO2 must be removed from the cycle to avoid accumulation. In particular, we look at the design of a predictive controller that aims at achiev ...

Thermal Diffusion and Partial Molar Enthalpy Variations of n
... This value is not the same as the result in eq 13.26 2.2. Fluxes and Forces from Nonequilibrium Thermodynamics. Consider next the butane adsorbed in the zeolite phase. The amount of zeolite is constant in the system, and it is taken as frame of reference (thus, its mass flux is zero). We are interes ...

Abstraction and its Limits: Finding Space For Novel Explanation
... The toy theory is also misleading in another way; there is an obvious sense in which the transformed variables of (7)-(9) are the wrong variables in which to describe basic mechanics. The example would be more telling, and more interesting, if our new variables themselves lead to successful abstract ...
