Projects Within the Center for Advanced Materials: 1993-1994. 8th Annual Report,September 1, 1993-December 31, 1994

摘要

The Gas Research Institute (GRI) has recognized an opportunity for improving gas-fired industrial utilization technology through the application of advanced high-temperature materials. The GRI-sponsored research projects within the Center for Advanced Materials (CAM) at The Pennsylvania State University that support this objective during the eighth year of the Center's operation were in three major areas: technology assessment and dissemination, analytical and engineering services, and research. CAM's technology and information dissemination efforts are specifically designed to meet the applications and material development needs of advanced materials suppliers, equipment manufacturers, and industrial end users, who require the timely application of state-of-the-art materials in such applications as waste heat recovery systems, advanced gas-fired heating and melting systems, and gas-fired industrial prime movers to ensure the more cost-effective, efficient use of natural gas.
