Summary |
The ESTEP program aims to educate the Naval Workforce through practical implementation of new and nascent technologies to reduce the cost and increase the security and resilience of energy to United States Naval facilities. This exposes thesis students to relevant research in the critical field of renewable energy. In addition, it allows the faculty to be aware of the state-of-the-art in energy technologies. Each project is designed to investigate a particular technology. This can be in a number of ways, the most basic is an evaluation with a project design for the next phase of the work. More mature projects aim to purchase a particular piece of equipment that is usually commercially available and evaluate in a real world setting. Analysis and simulation tools are also part of the program. Individual Projects a) Muguru Chandrasekhara: Study of Phase Change Materials for Passively Cooling Building Spaces. b) Anthony Gannon: Integration of Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) and Supercapacitor Microgid. c) Giovanna Oriti: Energy Management System Applications to DoN Microgrids. d) Anthony Pollman: Re-engineering & Integrating a Building Scale Liquid Air Energy Storage System. e) Oleg Yakimenko: Renewable Energy Microgrid Optimization (REMO). f) Daniel Nussbaum: Resilience Assessment for Emerging Technologies. g) Andria Holmes: Self Contained Hydrogen to Electrical System. h) Todd Weatherford: Efficient Implementation of Solid State Transformers. i) Douglas Seivwright: Waste Heat Recovery from Gas Turbine Exhaust. j) Claudia Luhrs: Epoxy resins-phase change materials to improve thermal performance of living and storage spaces. k) Wei Kang: Remote Detection and Estimation of Microgrid Activities Using Mobile Sensors. |
