Refrigeration System Performance Using Alternative Refrigerants
When running a refrigeration system, the refrigerant will always leak into the atmosphere in various ways. The leakage of currently used refrigerants have a non-negligible impact on the Continue reading
Preparing an Existing Diesel Power Plant for a Wind Hybrid Retrofit
There are many reasons why diesel power systems are so widespread. Diesel generators are by far the lowest capital cost electric generation technology in the sub-MW size range. They are a well-established and well-understood technology and there is a Continue reading
Micro-SPI Sediment Profile Imaging Micro-Inspector
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This project was proposed by Dr. Paavo through a desire to more easily study the benthic sediment layers of the ocean. To do so, he asked us to build a simple and compact machine for use in sediment profile imagery (SPI). Although Continue reading
