Optimum sizing of steam turbines for concentrated solar power plants by Poullikkas, Andreas

“…The results indicate that the estimated efficiency and the expected specific capital cost of the power block are very important criteria in choosing the best steam turbine size of a CSP plant. For capacity sizes of 10kWe up to 50MWe, the steam turbine efficiency increases and the steam turbine expected specific capital cost of the power block decreases at a high rate, whereas for larger sizes they remain almost constant. …”

An empirical correlation-based model to predict solid-fluid phase equilibria and phase separation of the ternary system CH₄-CO₂-H₂S by Hani Ababneh (9218272)

“…The main aim of this study is to develop an empirical correlation model based on Peng-Robinson equation of state (PR EoS), with fugacity expressions, that is able for the first time to describe the solid-fluid phase equilibria for the ternary system of CH₄-CO₂-H₂S at pressures from 5 to 30 bar and over a wide range of temperature (130–200 K). …”

Rapid mercury removal using living indigenous microalgal communities for water treatment applications by Amr Nasr Fekry (22521185)

“…Kinetic studies showed superior correlation with the pseudo-second-order model (R² > 0.996), with rate constants decreasing systematically from 767.5 to 216.0 g/mg·min as concentration increased, suggesting secondary chemical interactions may also contribute to the overall mechanism. …”

NMR Study of the Interaction of Trinitrobenzene with High-Spin Tetraarylporphinato-Iron(II1) Halides by Kabbani, Ahmad T.

“…The averaged TNB shifts and line-widths are indicative of 1:1 complexes whose stability is decreased by more electron-withdrawing axial halides or phenyl substituents, consistent with the porphyrin acting as a π donor in the adduct. …”
