Geothermal energy extraction from decommissioned petroleum wells
(
International Society for Rock Mechanics
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Abandoned wells impose enduring liabilities to petroleum companies and/or governments. However, the depth and abundance of abandoned petroleum wells make them an economically attractive source of geothermal energy. Geothermal ...
A novel technique for extraction of geothermal energy from abandoned oil wells
(2012 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates the possibility of design and construction of a geothermal heat exchanger suitable for installation in abandoned oil wells. Based on the in-situ data collected, an amenable heat transfer numerical ...
EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION AND HEAT TRANSFER ANALYSIS OF INNOVATIVE THERMAL MECHANICAL REFRIGERATION SYSTEM COMPARED TO ELECTRIC COMPRESSOR
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
The current electric refrigeration and air condition systems are major causes for ozone depletion and global warming. These systems consume large percent of the worldwide gross production of electricity (around 17%). ...
Heat transfer analysis of regenerative thermo-mechanical refrigeration system
(
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Refrigeration systems contribute to the critical environmental concerns including global warming and ozone depletion. It is necessary to develop new systems that use renewable energy resources and waste heat to perform the ...
Modal analysis of spur gears for varied teeth root cracks characteristics: finite element analysis (FEA) simulations
(
Extrica
, 2022 , Conference Paper)
Gear failure is considered the main alarming and undesirable event in gearboxes. Usually, cracks happen by fatigue caused due to cyclic loading. Fatigue stress is focused on the teeth root because of the small tooth fillet ...
Tools and Techniques for Food Security and Sustainability Related Assessments: A focus on the Data and Food Waste Management System
(
IEOM Society International
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Achieving global food security requires addressing series of challenges, from food waste accumulation in the food
supply chain (FSC) to tackling the gender disparities and climate-related concerns to promote sustainable ...
Potential of geothermal energy for electricity generation in Qatar
(
Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
There is general acceptance that climate change, which is the most important challenge facing humanity, is anthropogenic and attributed to fossil fuel consumption. Therefore, improving the performance of our existing energy ...
Hysteresis behaviour of different magnetorheological elastomer models: Modelling and simulation
(
EXTRICA
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Smart materials are materials by which their properties can be altered due to external stimuli such as temperature, pressure, and magnetic field. Magnetorheological Elastomer (MRE) is a type of smart composite material ...
A Frontier Based Eco-Efficiency Assessment of Electric Vehicles: The Case of European Union Countries Using Mixed and Renewable Sources of Energy
(
IEOM Society
, 2021 , Conference Paper)
Electric vehicles (EVs) are seen as a promising solution for creating more efficient and sustainable transportation systems. European Union (EU) members show a strong interest in implementing EVs, and the governments support ...
The Factors Affecting CO Emission in the European Union Countries: A Statistical Approach to Sustainability across the Food Industry
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The research investigates four prime factors influencing CO2 emission levels associated with the food production industry in the European Union (EU) member states. The prime factors, namely population size, percentage of ...
