An automated tool for evaluating compliance and providing assistance with building energy standards during design

Description: In an effort to encourage the maximum cost-effective level of energy efficiency in new building design, energy-efficiency standards have become more location-specific and performance-based. As a result, standards often provide more than one path for ensuring and demonstrating that a design complies, but at the cost of increased complexity. In addition, the burden of remedying a noncompliant design rests on the designers' knowledge and experience, with only general guidance provided by the stand… more

Automatic ID heat load generation in ANSYS code

Description: Detailed power density profiles are critical in the execution of a thermal analysis using a finite element (FE) code such as ANSYS. Unfortunately, as yet there is no easy way to directly input the precise power profiles into ANSYS. A straight-forward way to do this is to hand-calculate the power of each node or element and then type the data into the code. Every time a change is made to the FE model, the data must be recalculated and reentered. One way to solve this problem is to generate a set… more

Cloud and aerosol characterization for the ARM central facility: Multiple remote sensor techniques development

Description: This research project designed to investigate how atmospheric remote sensing technology can best be applied to the characterization of the cloudy atmosphere. Our research program addresses basic atmospheric remote sensing questions, but at the same time is clearly directed toward providing information crucial to the ARM (Atmospheric Remote Sensing) program and for application to the Clouds and Radiation Testbed (CART). The instrumentation that is being brought into play includes a variety of ar… more

Development of biological coal gasification (MicGAS Process)

Description: In order for the coal biogasification process to be economically feasible, an inexpensive nutrient amendment must be found to replace the Difco[trademark] yeast extract and tryptic soy broth (YE/TSB) used in the current medium formulation. Five products have been identified which support greater methane production from Texas lignite than YE/TSB.

Hydrogen Separation by Ceramic Membranes in Coal Gasification

Description: Project Objectives are to develop hydrogen-permselective ceramic membranes for water-gas shift membrane-reactor suitable for hydrogen production from coal gas and evaluate the technical and economic potential of the membrane-reactor. During the reporting period exploratory experiments begun on a membrane preparation technique aimed at providing higher membrane permeance. The new preparation technique involves two stages. The first stage is the formation of a layer of silica gel by a two-phase i… more

Photoinitiated electron transfer in multichromophoric species: Synthetic tetrads and pentads featuring diquinone moieties

Description: This project involves the design, synthesis and photophysical study of complex molecular systems engineered to achieve long lived charge separated states by a biomimetic, photoinitiated multistep electron transfer process. The use of these artificial systems to investigate different electron and energy transfer strategies will allow the evolution of more efficient molecular devices for the gathering of light energy and its transformation into chemical potential energy. The three major aspects o… more

The physics of kaon decays: CP violation and lepton flavor nonconservation

Description: OAK B188 The physics of kaon decays: CP violation and lepton flavor nonconservation. We discuss here the research that is likely to be done in the 1990's in the study of kaon decays. We concentrate on searches for direct CP violation and for the violation of electron- and muon-number, including approved and proposed experiments at existing facilities, and those which could be done at a facility using the proposed Fermilab Main Injector.

Rapid Pressure Swing Absorption Cleanup of Post-Shift Reactor Synthesis Gas

Description: This investigation is concerned with the separation of gas mixtures using a novel concept of rapid pressure swing absorption (RAPSAB) of gas in a stationary absorbent liquid through gas-liquid interfaces immobilized in the pore mouths of hydrophobic microporous membranes. The process is implemented in a module well-packed with hydrophobic microporous hollow fiber membranes. The specific objectives are (1) to develop a theoretical model which will provide guidelines for selecting an efficient RA… more
