Design Considerations and Experimental Results of a 60 W Compressed-Air-to-Electric-Power System
(2008)2008 IEEE/ASME International Conference on Mechtronic and Embedded Systems and ApplicationsIn many process applications, where a pressure reduction is required the energy ends up being dissipated as heat. Examples are throttling valves of gas pipelines and automotive engines or turbo expanders as used in cryogenic plants. With a new pressure reduction system that produces electricity while expanding the gas, this lost energy can be recovered. To achieve a high power density this energy generation system requires an increased ...Conference Paper
