Once pulverized coal flows have been measured, they can be balanced and optimized. Until then, tuning is simply guesswork. The right way to balance furnace fuel flows is to establish solid baseline ...

Power generation and energy storage systems rely on fluid transfer networks that must operate safely and efficiently across ...

Modern civilization depends on the transport of liquid and gases in systems of pipes, just as humans depend on the transport of blood through arteries and veins 1. As fluids move through pipes, they ...

Lucid Energy, a Portland, OR-based hydrokinetics start-up company, has pioneered what it calls a "water-to-wire energy recovery solution" that allows large, gravity-fed pipes to moonlight as electric ...

At a time when combustion optimization seems to be such an important part of reducing emissions and improving efficiency, in part because of carbon constraints, we have to ask ourselves, how do we ...

Ordinarily, if you want liquid to flow in only one direction through a pipe, that pipe needs to be equipped with a flap-type valve – which could fail. Now, however, scientists have created a new type ...

Over the past decade, the use of heat pipes in electronic cooling applications has increased dramatically, primarily in notebook computers. In fact, virtually every notebook computer manufactured ...
