The external flow patterns, pressure characteristics and intake flow rates were documented.
These instruments usually require low intake flow rates (<1l/min) and often sample unattended, 24 h per day.
Intake air flow rate, LAMEE-to-total length ratio and working-to-intake air flow ratio are regarded as design variables.
Intake mass flow rate, compressor and turbine pressure ratio and efficiency, turbine inlet temperature and electrical power are DP target parameters.
Simulation results showed that the outlet temperature of the product air was affected by the working-to-intake air flow rate ratio and the dimensionless channel length, while the outlet humidity ratio of the product air was influenced by the length of the liquid desiccant film and the dimensionless channel length.
Finally, optimum values of intake temperature, mass flow rate of diesel and gaseous fuels are obtained for a desired output power and engine speed via NSGA-II.
The controllable variables such as engine speed, output power, intake temperature, mass flow rate of diesel fuel, and mass flow rate of the gaseous fuel are considered as input parameters.
The model is also used to study how design parameters, such as position of intake air trenches and flow rate of fresh air, will affect energy savings.
An alternative approach is used to evaluate net power output and cycle thermal efficiency from more realistic parameters such as air fuel ratio, fuel mass flow rate, intake temperature, engine design parameters, etc.
