Development of a 1-D Performance Prediction Model for Pumps as Turbines

Proceedings, 2018
Pumps as turbines (PaTs) are becoming more and more attractive in Small Hydropower. PaTs are considered a cost-effective alternative to conventional turbines as long as their turbine characteristic curves can be predicted. Indeed, manufacturers need of a

Application of Circular Economy Principles to Power Generation: Extending the Life of A Hydropower Plant by Pumped Hydro Energy Storage

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The application of circular economy, which aims to maximize efficiency and reduce waste, to renewable energy sources necessitates, given the intermittent nature of the latter, robust energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability and avoid wasting energy.

Resource reallocation across successive systemic innovations: How Rolls‐Royce shaped the evolution of the turbojet, turboprop, and turbofan

Strategic Management Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary Despite the importance of resource reallocation in shaping a variety of strategic outcomes, strategy scholars have paid only limited attention to the processes by which firms reallocate their resources across successive systemic innovations.

Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...

Analysis of Rotor-Stator Interaction in Turbine Mode of a Pump-Turbine Model

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2016
The highest-level fluctuations in large pump-turbines are usually originated from rotor-stator interaction (RSI) in the vaneless region. Hence, the studies of RSI phenomenon and corresponding unsteady effects are significantly important to reduce the ...

Energy Flows Balance of Electric‐Heating Interconnected Microgrids Under Grid‐Forming Converter Integration Based on Heterogeneous Graph Convolutional Network

Energy Internet, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The combination of electric‐heating interconnected microgrids (EHIMs) with grid‐forming converters (GFMCs) offers a highly promising approach to improving energy management within decentralised energy systems. Despite its potential, precisely modelling and analysing energy flow in such systems remains a considerable challenge due to the ...

An Overview of High‐Temperature Superconducting Cables in DC Systems: Unlocking Potential for High‐Voltage DC Networks

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper provides an overview of high‐temperature superconducting (HTS) cables in DC systems, with a focus on their deployment in high‐voltage DC (HVDC) networks. The assessment of HTS cable properties—such as extremely low electrical resistance, high current‐carrying capacity and a compact geometry—and their comparison with those of ...

Introduction: Towards a linguistic anthropology of AI Introduction : vers une anthropologie linguistique de l'IA

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This essay introduces the themed cluster of articles, ‘Towards a linguistic anthropology of AI’. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI), especially in large language models capable of producing coherent discourse mimicking conversational interaction, is exerting unprecedented pressure on prevailing concepts of language, personhood, and the human ...
