Feasibility study of a hybrid wind turbine system - integration with compressed air energy storage [PDF]
, 2017 The paper presents a new hybrid wind turbine system that is formed by a direct mechanical shaft connection of the wind turbine with an air expander, which converts stored compressed air energy to mechanical energy.

, 2011 Small wind turbines are an attractive alternative for off-grid electrification and water pumping, both as stand-alone applications and in combination with other energy technologies such as photovoltaic, small hydro or Diesel engines. Under these conditions, the cost of energy alone is often not the only criterion to consider, and aspects like system ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A combined finite element and phase‐field approach predicts the evolution of microstructure during the directional solidification of Ni‐based superalloys. The model reveals how withdrawal rate, temperature gradient, and wall thickness control the dendrite spacing, highlighting the strong effect of surface regions in thin sections where dendrite growth ...
