Abstract The BLEMAB European project (BLast furnace stack density Estimation through online Muon ABsorption measurements), the evolution of previous Mu-Blast project, is designed to investigate in detail capability muon radiography techniques applied imaging inner zone a blast furnace. In particular, goal this collaboration characterize internal region (so-called cohesive zone) where slowly downward-moving material begins soften and melt, which plays an important role performance itself....
A 39-W thermoelectric generator prototype has been realized and then installed in industrial plant for on-line trials. The was developed as an energy harvesting demonstrator using low temperature cooling water waste heat source. objective of the research program is to measure actual performances this kind device working with below 90 °C, hot source, fresh at a about 15 cold sink. article shows first results program. It verified, under tested operative conditions, that produced electric power...
This paper discusses quasisteady, ablative, magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) thruster operation and performance. Quasisteady MPD thrusters operate with instantaneous power levels of a few megawatts during pulses (shots) that last approximately 1 ms. The used this study consisted coaxial electrodes radially positioned bars propellant passed through the sidewall anode near cathode tip. Four different polymer propellants were investigated: ) polytetrae uoroethylene (Tee ont), 2) ethylene-tetrae resin...
