Liquid jet injection into a supersonic crossflow: Influence of jet orifice shape on penetration and atomization
Liquid jet injection into supersonic crossflow is one of the conceptually simple ways of fuel atomization in SCRAMJET engines. The success of these engines demands the efficient mixing of incoming supersonic air and the ... -
A New Class of Single DC-link Fed Multilevel Inverter Topologies for Grid Connected Photovoltaic Systems with Reduced Component Count and Inherent Capacitor Balancing
Grid integration of photovoltaic (PV) energy sources has been mostly governed by conventional two-level voltage source inverters. These topologies have significant switching power losses, dV/dt stress and THD level at lower ... -
On understanding the role of V addition in design and development of high specific strength γ'(L12)-strengthened Co-base superalloys
Ni-based superalloys with excellent mechanical, thermal and oxidation resistance properties have great demand in energy applications. Over the time, varied compositions of Ni-based superalloys have been utilized for the ... -
Studies on Mixing Characteristics in the Critical Flow Regime of Supersonic Ejectors
Ejectors are passive devices having ubiquitous applications in several engineering domains, including modern-day applications in supercritical CO2-based power and refrigeration cycles. The ejector compresses a low-enthalpy ... -
Studies on Pressurized Solar Thermal Receiver and Thermal Energy Storage System
High-efficiency power cycles for concentrating solar power (CSP) technology such as air or supercritical carbon-dioxide (s-CO2) based Brayton cycle require high-pressure high-temperature conditions at the gas turbine ... -
Studies on Rotary Atomization
In rotary fuel injection systems, the fuel is atomized with the help of centrifugal force provided by the rotation of the injector. The rotational power can be directly provided by the shaft of a gas turbine, which can go ... -
Unravelling the composition space of Zr2FeNiSb2 double half-Heusler thermoelectric material
More than half of annual energy consumption in thermal power plants are released in the form of waste heat. However, this waste heat could be harnessed with the help of thermoelectric (TE) devices which can convert this ...
