    Modelling of losses in multi-stage axial compressors with subsonic conditions 

    Swift, William James (North-West University, 2003)
    The need was identified to develop an analytical performance prediction code for subsonic multistage axial compressors that can be included in network analysis software. It was found that performance calculations based ...

    Numerical simulation of systems of rigid bodies 

    Neethling, Rufus Stephanus (North-West University, 2004)
    This study investigated the various techniques available for rigid body system simulation, thus providing a thorough overview of the latest relevant literature. N became apparent that no engineering level accurate impulsive ...

    Designing a dynamic thermal and energy system simulation scheme for cross industry applications 

    Bouwer, Werner (North-West University, 2004)
    The South African economy, which is largely based on heavy industry such as minerals extraction and processing, is by nature very energy intensive. Based on the abundance of coal resources, electricity in South Africa ...

    The evaluation of the mechanisms involved in the extraction of nickel from low concentration effluents by means of supported liquid membrane 

    Koekemoer, Leon Rikus (North-West University, 2004)
    From an economic point of view, the use of membranes at the present time is intermediate between the development of first generation membrane processes and second generation processes such as supported liquid membranes. ...

    Development of an ultra-high radio-frequency identification system 

    Van Eeden, Hendrik Lodewyk (North-West University, 2004)
    Ultra-high radio-frequency identification (UHF RFID) systems outperform all other RFID technologies in terms of throughput and reading range. UHF RFID tags and readers will be deployed on unprecedented scales during ...

    Development of an integrated co-processor based power electronic drive 

    Hudson, Robert Dearn (North-West University, 2008)
    The McTronX research group at the North-West University is currently researching self-sensing techniques for Active Magnetic Bearings (AMB). The research is part of an ongoing effort to expand the knowledge base on AMBs ...

    Start-up and shutdown control of a three-shaft Brayton cycle based power conversion unit 

    Laubscher, Stefan Andries (North-West University, 2005)
    The Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PBMR) is a graphite-moderated, helium-cooled reactor that uses the Brayton direct gas cycle to convert the heat, which is generated in the core by nuclear fission. The heat is transferred ...

    Object-oriented software development applied to adaptive resolution control in two-fluid models 

    Kruger, Jan-Hendrik (North-West University, 2004)
    The accuracy of two-phase flow simulations is mainly determined by the mathematical formulations and resolution of the computational mesh used in the numerical model. Selective mesh refinement improves the accuracy of ...

    The numerical modelling of a flue gas precipitator 

    Van Eeden, Gert Christian (North-West University, 2003)
    Suspended fly-ash particles in industrial emission gasses have a major degrading effect on the whole environment. Electrostatic precipitation is one of the oldest and most effective gas-cleaning processes used today. ...

    Optimising the power quality control of a distributed generation power system 

    Du Rand, Carel Petrus (North-West University, 2004)
    Verspreide generasie of generators (VG) verwys na die opwekking van elektriese drywing op 'n kleiner skaal (produksie wissel in grootte van 'n paar kW tot menige MW) deur 'n eenheid wat nie deel is van 'n sentrale voorsiener ...
