Fully automatic simultaneous fibre grating amplitude and group delay characterization
We present a novel fiber grating measurement technique based on the direct modulation of a tunable laser source by an optical component analizer.
A dynamic model for MED-TVC transient operation
Abstract The Multi Effect Distillation (MED) process is often proposed as a key technology for the construction of new thermal desalination plants, especially within solar-powered cogeneration schemes. With this respect, the need for transient behaviour analysis requires the development of dynamic models for the MED process. Only a few have been presented so far in the literature, in which, however, several simplifying assumptions and constrains are still limiting their potential use. The model here proposed addresses most of the aspects still limiting previous models formulations. The powerful equation-based process simulator gPROMS® was chosen for the implementation of the model, develope…
