Untitled
Combustion engines have been for a long time the most important prime mover for transportation
globally. A combustion engine is simple in its nature; a mix of fuel and air is combusted, and work
is produced in the operating ...
Untitled
In the present thesis different SOFC stack models have been presented.
The results shown were obtained in the general framework of the GENIUS
project (GEneric diagNosis Instrument for SOFC systems), funded by the
European ...
Untitled
Da alcuni anni la questione energetico - ambientale è ormai diventata di dominio pubblico,
perdendone magari dal punto di vista scientifico, ma diventando in grado di condizionare i
comportamenti di una parte sempre ...
Untitled
Our planet faces significant challenges in the twenty-first century because energy consumption
is expected to double globally during the first half of this century. Faced with increasingly
constrained oil supplies, ...
Untitled
Proton Exchange Membrane, also named Polymer Electrolyte Membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) are
interesting devices for energy conversion. Their development is due to the high efficiency,
acceptable power density, quick start-up ...
Untitled
In last decade, Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) have emerged as real alternatives to engine-driven vehicles, in order to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.... [edited by author]
Untitled
Transportation is the major sector in the EU where greenhouse gas emissions are still rising. Therefore, in the recent years, the OEMs research and development has focused on the reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) and ...
Untitled
The interest in Diesel engines for automotive application has dramatically grown in the last decades, due to the benefits gained with the introduction of Common Rail system and electronic control. A strong increase in fuel ...
Untitled
In the present work an investigation of the reforming technologies available for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) systems and their basic concepts has been carried out, with the aim to describe, test and simulate the reforming ...
Untitled
The work presented in this thesis is aimed at developing an advanced
algorithm to monitor the State of Health (SoH) of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
(SOFCs). Then a computational structure has been implemented for the
diagnosis ...
