Experimental verification of CH4-CO2 swap in methane-propane-carbon dioxide mixture hydrates
Abbasov, Abbas; Parlaktuna, Mahmut; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2014)
Significant interest has been given to unconventional hydrocarbon resources in recent years. Natural gas hydrates are one of the key components of unconventional hydrocarbon resources to be addressed. However, energy utilization from hydrate reservoirs is challenging and related researches are still being carried out. Recently, a method in which methane gas (CH4) is recovered from natural gas hydrate formations by injection of carbon dioxide (CO2) has been proposed. This method is considered to be a promisi...
Critical evaluation of the energy resources of Turkey with respect to the world prospects
Aydemir, Mehmet Olcay; Mehmetoğlu, Mustafa Tanju; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2010)
Existing petroleum and natural gas reserves, which are the major supplies of primary energy demand of the world, are cumulated in a few countries. This causes a serious supply security problem for many countries. On the other side, greenhouse gas emissions caused by mainly fossil fuels are gradually increasing to a point which jeopardizes the future of the earth. By now, countries have to consider both their supply security and this global environmental problem while planning their energy future. For Turkey...
Experimental research on in-tube condensation under steady-state and transient conditions
Tanrikut, A; Yesin, O (2005-01-01)
In this research study, in-tube condensation in the presence of air was investigated experimentally at a heat exchanger of countercurrent type for different operating conditions. The test matrix for the steady-state condition covers the range of pressures P = 1.8 to 5.5 bars, vapor Reynolds numbers Re, = 45 000 to 94 000, and inlet air mass fraction values Xi = 0 to 52%. The effect of air manifests itself by a reduction in the local heat flux and the local heat transfer coefficient. The local heat transfer ...
Electrically controlled terahertz spatial light modulators with graphene arrays
Kakenov, Nurbek; Takan, Taylan; Özkan, Vedat Ali; Balci, Osman; Polat, Emre O.; Altan, Hakan; KOCABAŞ, COŞKUN (2016-05-27)
Gate-tunable high-mobility electrons on atomically thin graphene layers provide a unique opportunity to control electromagnetic waves in a very broad spectrum. In this paper, we describe an electrically-controlled multipixel terahertz light modulators. The spatial light modulator is fabricated using two large-area graphene layers grown by chemical vapor deposition and transferred on THz transparent and flexible substrates. Room temperature ionic liquid, inserted between the graphene, provides mutual gating ...
Experimental analysis of adsorption capacities and behaviors of shale samples
Merey, Şükrü; Sınayuç, Çağlar; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2013)
In recent years, unconventional reserves such as shale gas reservoirs have become a major alternative source of energy in the world. It is known that Turkey has shale gas potentials especially in the Southeastern and Thrace region. In shale gas reservoirs, significant amounts of natural gas exist as conventional “free” gas in porous spaces as well as “adsorbed” gas on shale matrix. Understanding adsorption capacities and behaviors of shale gas reservoirs may help exploitation and resource evaluation. In thi...
