Economic Feasibility of Floating Offshore Wind Farms Considering Near Future Wind Resources: Case Study of Iberian Coast and Bay of Biscay
(MDPI, 2021-03)
[Abstract] Wind energy resources are subject to changes in climate, so the use of wind energy density projections in the near future is essential to determine the viability and profitability of wind farms at particular ...
Numerical Analysis of NOₓ Reduction Using Ammonia Injection and Comparison With Water Injection
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] This work analyzes NOₓ reduction in a marine diesel engine using ammonia injection directly into the cylinder and compares this procedure with water injection. A numerical model based on the so-called inert ...
Optimization of a Multiple Injection System in a Marine Diesel Engine through a Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making Approach
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] In this work, a numerical model was developed to analyze the performance and emissions of a marine diesel engine, the Wärtsilä 6L 46. This model was validated using experimental measurements and was employed to ...
How Important Are Ports for the Offshore Wind Industry?: The Case of Spain
(European Association for the Development of Renewable Energies, Environment and Power Quality (EA4EPQ), 2021-09)
[Abstract] Offshore wind is becoming a new technology to develop a better sustainable world. Its progress is linked to the use of port facilities, where the offshore wind farms can be stored or pre-installed. The aim of ...
Opening or Not Opening Educational Centers in Time of SARS-CoV-2? Analysis of the Situation in Galicia (Spain)
(MDPI, 2022-05-05)
[Abstract] The appearance of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on the world stage has implemented changes in all social activities and, therefore, in teaching at all educational levels. On the one hand, it is argued that the closure ...
The technical and economic feasibility of the CENTEC floating offshore wind platform
(MDPI, 2022-09-21)
[Abstract]: This paper defines a methodology for the economic feasibility analysis of a floating offshore wind farm composed of tensioned leg platforms, which are part of the EU ARCWIND research project. In this context, ...
Effect of multiple injection strategies on emissions and performance in the Wärtsilä 6L 46 marine engine. A numerical approach
(Elsevier, 2019-01-01)
[Abstract] The present paper proposes a Computational Fluid Dynamics model to analyze the operation cycle and exhaust gas composition in a four-stroke marine diesel engine, the Wärtsilä 6L 46. Once validated, the numerical ...
Selection of an Appropriate Pre-Injection Pattern in a Marine Diesel Engine Through a Multiple-Criteria Decision Making Approach
(MDPI, 2020-04-04)
[Abstract] In the present work, a numerical model was developed to analyze a commercial diesel engine. The adequacy of this model was validated using experimental results. This model was employed to study several pre-injection ...
STEMbach Experiences at Higher Education
(De Gruyter Open Ltd, 2023-01)
[Abstract]: The aim of this work is to describe several experiences of STEMbach in different areas: engineering, economics, materials, etc. The STEMbach is a program carried out by high school students during their two ...
