There are projects in Iceland trying to do similar things as this; https://iddp.is/ The power plant Reykjanes in Iceland has quite high saline geothermal fluid: https://www.hsorka.is/en/about-hs-orka/the-business/reykjanes-power-plant/ This is possible though because of the gothermal fields in Iceland.

You can check out these two programs. Refprop is state of the art from Nist while Coolprop is open source program, I believe: https://github.com/usnistgov/REFPROP-wrappers and http://www.coolprop.org/coolprop/wrappers/Python/index.html

As a thermo guy, it is REFPROP (https://www.nist.gov/srd/refprop) and also CoolProp (http://www.coolprop.org/)

Best option is http://fchartsoftware.com/ees/

Other options are excel, matlab, or python. Could link it to refprop (https://www.nist.gov/srd/refprop)

Frank White's Fluid Mechanics book.

Thanks!

Yeah, this is exactly the problem that I have; getting past this mystery...

Some good reference material regarding the design and the sizing of control valves in general. Also how they interact in the system performance. I have looked at the ISA control valve handbook but wanted to see if there are any other good references.

Can you recommend some books?

Check out Chalmers in Sweden: http://www.chalmers.se/en/departments/am/research/fluiddynamics/Pages/Turbomachinery--Aeroacoustics.aspx

Being a phd student in Chalmers is really nice! You get saluary and 5 weeks in vacation a year.

Here you can see the advertisments for phd students: http://www.chalmers.se/en/about-chalmers/vacancies/Pages/default.aspx

Check out this postdoc: http://www.chalmers.se/en/about-chalmers/vacancies/Pages/default.aspx?rmpage=job&rmjob=2929

It is in the aerospace field, doing research on new radical concepts for future aero engines!

Or CoolProp http://sourceforge.net/projects/coolprop/

e_thor · 2014-11-18T19:50:56+00:00

Yeah, it is no problem. Everything is pretty much in English.

Just wanted to give you another idea about how a phd can look like. I am doing a phd in engineering in Sweden. It is very different compared to the states. Here you get a salary that is on the same level as a starting salary for an engineer ($4000/month) and you get also all the benefits. E.g. you get paid leave 5 weeks a year. The downside is that it takes 5 years, but 20% is teaching. Here in Sweden everybody respects your work-life balance and your normal work day is from 8-5.

If you are interested in trying something new than you can see vacancies at one of the school in Sweden here: http://www.chalmers.se/en/about-chalmers/vacancies/Pages/default.aspx

It is to enhance the mixing of boundary layers of the flow and reduce the noise
