Re-sizing of a natural gas fired two-shaft gas turbine for low calorific gas operation

Gas turbine systems are predominantly designed to be fuelled with gaseous fuels within a limited Wobbe index range (typically HHV=45-55 MJ/Nm3 or 1200-1480 Btu/scf). When low calorific fuel gases are fired, the engine will be forced to operate outside its design envelope. The added mass flow will typically raise the cycle pressure ratio and in two-shaft designs also raise the gas generator shaft s

Quality of Life After Open Radical Prostatectomy Compared with Robot-assisted Radical Prostatectomy

Background: Surgery for prostate cancer has a large impact on quality of life (QoL). Objective: To evaluate predictors for the level of self-assessed QoL at 3 mo, 12 mo, and 24 mo after robot-assisted laparoscopic (RALP) and open radical prostatectomy (ORP). Design, setting, and participants: The LAParoscopic Prostatectomy Robot Open study, a prospective, controlled, nonrandomised trial of more th

Shared heritability and functional enrichment across six solid cancers

Quantifying the genetic correlation between cancers can provide important insights into the mechanisms driving cancer etiology. Using genome-wide association study summary statistics across six cancer types based on a total of 296,215 cases and 301,319 controls of European ancestry, here we estimate the pair-wise genetic correlations between breast, colorectal, head/neck, lung, ovary and prostate

Startup of an anaerobic single stage digester with a fixed wheat straw bed

The most common form of technology for energy utilization via anaerobic treatment is slurry digestion with a low solids contents, such as sewage sludge or manure. Process control and maintenance are relatively simple, but costs involved with liquid handling and heating favour large, centralised plants. Raising the solids content of a digester to 30% significantly improves the economy of anaerobic

Power system damping in Iceland based on phasor measurements

Phasor measurement signals are used as only input to a wide-area power system stabilizer to increase interarea mode damping of the Icelandic system. Modal analysis and time simulations of a detailed model show that frequency difference as PSS input gives a damping improvement that is robust to drastic changes in system topology. Field data from phasor measurement units indicate high signal quality
