    Study of Designing and Operating Parameters of Rotary Air Preheaters

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ahmadi Partovi, Ebrahim (Author) ; Saidi, Mohammad Hassan (Supervisor) ; Kazemzadeh, Siamak (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In order to promote the efficiency of fossil fuel power stations, rotary air preheaters are used to warm the air entering the boiler. So, knowing the essential parameters of such exchangers and their effect on the efficiency is the primary objective and choosing the appropriate parameters and the dimensions reducing the liquid pressure, weight of exchangers and subsequently the maintenance expenses would be the secondary objective.
    In this research we tried to know the principles of regenerative convertors introducing the tentative air preheaters and their functional characteristics .We also assessed the factors in designing the ideal tentative air preheaters including the type of... 

    Finite Element Analysis of Contact Pressure for Dual Completion Packer Seal Element

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Korani, Mohammad Hadi (Author) ; Arghavani Hadi, Jamal (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The current research was conducted to investigate the sealing behavior of single-string and dual-string completion Packer. In order to transfer the oil from reservoir located underground to the surface, the string of tubings is used which is called oil well completion string. A typical completion string not only consists of tubings but also the other facilities such as safety valve, traveling joint, sliding side door and Packer as well. Some reasons including: the cost of drilling and challenges in setting wellhead equipment at some geographical situations, producing more oil and gas lead to extraction oil form more than one zone in the oil well. In addition, taking into the account that,...

    Abstract
    In this study, zirconia antistatic coatings were synthesized by a simple dip coating sol-gel route on glass substrates, then applied to polymer-based composites to potentially improve their dust or water repellent capabilities. The coating solution contained a precursor (ZrCl4), solvent (isopropanol) and coupling agent. FTIR spectra confirmed ZrO2 and ZrO compounds in both solution and antistatic coating. FE-SEM images indicated ZrO2 fibers’ thickness was controlled by changing ZrCl4 concentration (150 g–15 g ZrCl4/l) or relative humidity (20%–60%) during coating drying. Fibers grew thicker when decreasing the former or increasing the latter. The surface electrical resistivity for all...
