Sorry for the late response.
Thanks Ashtree for all your comments and advice. It's all very much appreciated.
I'll continue with the simulation and experimental preparation for now and may have some other questions in the near future.
Ashtree, thank you for running the various projections; they give me a good indication of what I should be aiming for. The ROSA software seems more complete than IMSdesign which I had been using previously.
In terms of control for the system I thought that since I have a fixed recovery (due to...
The wind turbine/hydraulic transmission/RO combination is patented therefore it is the basis of my project. Although it may not be at all ideal I have to make do with what I was given. The membrane and vessel configuration is therefore what I can modify to exploit as much energy as possible from...
Thanks for the responses.
bimr, let me explain better. This wind turbine - RO system is being developed by a start-up company and my job in my project is to try and get as much water out of the available fluctuating energy. Of course, a constant power supply would be preferred for RO but with...
Hello All,
I'm an energy engineering student and for my master's thesis I'm building a model to simulate an RO system which includes a high pressure pump driven directly by a wind turbine via hydraulic transmission, pressure vessels with 5 RO membranes and energy recovery device (positive...
