[PDF] from academia.edu Reduction of coke accumulation and energy resources by adding steam and carbon dioxide in naphtha based ethylene production
Journal ArticleIn this study, the production of ethylene and hydrogen is studied via the thermal cracking of ethylene in an ethylene plant based in Libya. During the process of thermal cracking, a mix of naphtha and steam is input into tubes that are directed to the naphtha main line. The utilization of steam is generally used because of the partial removal of coke which has undesirable effects on the process. The coke accumulation on the coils, or tubes, result in a decrease in pressure and also reduction in the yields produced. In this work, the naphtha thermal cracking process is both designed and solved numerically. A thorough comparison of the design results and the data extracted from the experiment reveal that the design may predict the overall process precisely. Also, the direct effects of CO2 are studied with regard to the accumulation of coke. Based on the results of two separate scenarios, the process of thermal cracking with the CO2 is beneficial to the overall process due to the higher yield of ethylene and propylene, and less accumulation of coke, and, in turn, less thickness on the coils inside the furnace. The results from the simulation show that the run time, or run length, of the furnace with the addition of CO2 becomes almost two times as the run time with adding steam. Based on these results, this study has proven to be worthy to explore, and the addition of CO2 has been observed to have noticeably positive results on the thermal cracking process.

The Influence of Heat Loss on Wind Generators to Implement Condition-Monitoring System Based on the Application of the Polynomial Regression Model
Journal ArticleThis paper presents an application of a condition-monitoring system (CMS) based on a polynomial regression model (PRM) to study the influence of heat loss on a wind generator’s temperatures. Monitoring the wind generator temperatures is a significant for efficient operation, and plays a key role in an effective CMS. Many techniques, including prediction models can be utilized to reliably forecast a wind generator’s temperature during operation and avoid the occurrence of a failure. PRMs are widely used in situations when the relationship between the response and the independent variables are curve-linear. These techniques can be used to construct a normal behavior model of an electrical generator’s temperatures based on recorded data. Many independent variables affect a generator’s temperature; however, the degree of influence of each independent variable on the response is dissimilar. In many situations, adding a new independent variable to the model may cause unsatisfactory results ;therefore, the selection of the variables should be very accurate. A generator’s heat loss can be considered a significant independent variable that greatly influences the wind generator with respect to the other variables. A generator’s heat loss can be estimated in intervals by analyzing the exchange in the heat between the hot and cold fluid through the heat exchangers of wind generators. A case study built on data collected from actual measurements demonstrates the adequacy of the proposed model.

Impacts on Blowoff by a Variety of CRZs Using Various Gases for Gas Turbines
Journal ArticleAbstract
Fuel flexibility will drive the energy demand in the near future. The use of different syngas compositions from various sources will play a major role in the global fuel mix. CO2 in the blends will also be added as a mechanism to improve carbon capture and storage technologies. However, this can trigger instabilities such as thermoacoustics, flashback, autoignition and blowoff. In terms of blowoff, the phenomenon is still not entirely understood. This project presents a series of experiments to determine the behaviour and impact on the blowoff process at various swirl numbers, nozzle geometries and gas compositions. The Central Recirculation Zone was analyzed just before blowoff. The results show how the strength and size of the recirculation zones are highly influenced by these parameters. However, it seems that the CRZ dimensions/strength does not play an important role in the blowoff, whilst the composition of the mixture shows high correlation. Nevertheless, the CRZ intensity using these compositions can increase residence time, important for combustion improvement of other blends.

Analytical model for estimating execution cost of 1D array expressions
Conference paperCompiler writers have developed various techniques, such as constant folding, subexpression elimination, loop transformation and vectorization, to help compilers in code optimization for performance improvement. Yet, they have been far less successful in developing techniques or cost models that compilers can rely on to simplify parallel programming and tune the performance of parallel applications automatically. This paper is the first of two-phase study to develop an analytical model that can be used to estimate the cost for sequential and parallel execution of array expressions on multicore architectures. While this paper discuss the possibility of developing a cost model to estimate the sequential execution of array expressions on a single CPU, the second part of the investigation shall focus on developing a model to estimate parallel execution of arrays on multicore platforms. The model presented in this paper is expected to be used by programming language compilers as complement component with the other model to estimate and subsequently decide whether to parallelize individual array expressions or not. The preliminary results which are presented here show that this model can give a satisfactory evaluation and high-precision estimation for the cost of executing a regular array expression on a single core processor.

Evaluating the Baseline Characteristics of Static Balance in Young Adults
Journal ArticleThe objectives of this study (baseline study, n = 20) were to implement Matlab procedures for quantifying selected static balance variables, establish baseline data of selected variables which characterize static balance activities in a population of healthy young adult males, and to examine any trial effects on these variables. The results indicated that the implementation of Matlab procedures for quantifying selected static balance variables was practical and enabled baseline data to be established for selected variables. There was no significant trial effect. Recommendations were made for suitable tests to be used in later studies. Specifically it was found that one foot-tiptoes tests either in static balance is too challenging for most participants in normal circumstances. A one foot-flat eyes open test was considered to be representative and challenging for static balance.

Estimation of Future Temperature Change in Misurata Area Libya by Using Statistical Downscaling Method "SDSM"
Journal ArticleAbstract
There is much discussion in the scientific literature and concern in the wider community about climate
change, recent climate analyses indicate that the magnitude of 21st Century warming is likely to have been the
largest of any century for the last 1000 years over the northern hemisphere. All the IPCC's four reports between
1990 and 2007 concluded that we cannot expect stable climate in the future and we should prepare scenarios
and strategies for the survival of humankind under the conditions of forthcoming global change. In this study,
the applicability of the statistical downscaling model (SDSM) in downscaling temperature in Misurata area -
Libya, was investigated. The investigation includes the calibration of the SDSM model by using large-scale
atmospheric variables encompassing NCEP reanalysis data, the validation of the model were measured daily
temperature data (1961-1990) using independent period of the NCEP reanalysis data and the general circulation
model (GCM) outputs of scenarios A2 and B2 of the HadCM3 model. The model is calibrated and applied at a
daily time series, even though the output is monthly and the prediction of the future regional maximum and
minimum temperature scenarios for three time windows: 2011-2040, 2041-2070 and 2071-2099. The results showed
that: The statistical downscaling model (SDSM) was able to describe the basic statistical properties of daily
minimum and maximum temperature in the period of record, suggesting that it could be used to predict future
trends. Trend analysis in the study area showed an increase in average annual and monthly temperature,
compared to the baseline period for both HadCM3A2a and HadCM3B2a scenarios in both the dry and wet
seasons. However, this increase is higher in dry months than wet months for all future time horizons and for
both HadCM3A2a and HadCM3B2a scenarios. Thus there is likely to be a significant warming in local surface
temperature, which is enough for a significant change on the energy balance and is likely to impact water
availability.
