Upcoming ConferencesASME Gas Turbine India Conference December 5-6, 2013 | Bangalore, IndiaPRESENTED BY THE ASME GAS TURBINE INSTITUTE AND CSIR NATIONAL AEROSPACE LABORATORIES

ASME Gas Turbine Chapter of India, supported by ASME International Gas Turbine Institute (IGTI), announces the ASME 2013 Gas Turbine India Conference to be in Bangalore, Karnataka, India on December 5-6, 2013. If you are involved in the area of GT Design & Research, this conference will give you the unique opportunity to interact with experts in the gas turbine industry, as well as find out the latest methods and cutting-edge technology that can improve how gas turbines operate in the future. http://www.asmeconferences.org/GTIndia2013/

ASME Turbo Expo 2014June 16 - 20, 2014 | Düsseldorf, Germany

ASME Turbo Expo is recognized as the must attend event for turbomachinery professionals. The technical conference has a well-earned reputation for bringing together the best and brightest experts from around the world to share the latest in turbine technology, research and development, and application in the following topic areas: gas turbines, steam turbines, wind turbines, fans & blowers, solar brayton & rankine cycle and supercritical CO2. The 3-day exhibition attracts the industry's leading professionals and key decision makers, whose innova-tion and expertise are helping to shape the future of the turbomachinery industry.http://www.asmeconferences.org/TE2014//

ASME Turbine Blade Tip Symposium and Course Week Sept. 30 - Oct. 3, 2013 | Hamburg, Germany

The present multidisciplinary ASME 2013 Turbine Blade Tip Technical Symposium and Course Week addresses the current state of the art in the design, analysis, and improvement of turbine blade tips. Despite decades of applied research, the issue of blade tip burnout has remained as one of the most intractable in gas turbines. Yet the degradation of blade tips continues to represent a large fraction of the turbine losses, both in terms of the opera-tional aero-thermal efficiency and the engine life cycle maintain-ability. A two-day course of lectures will precede the technical symposium to provide background, state-of-the-art design, and operability issues surrounding the topic. A two-day symposium will build upon the lecture series with current proposed or enacted solutions, studies to gain insight to the physics, and an industry panel session for open discussion. Interested attendees can register for the course only, symposium only, or for both parts of the event.

ASME Organic Rankine Cycle 2013 October 7-8, 2013 | Rotterdam, The Netherlands

Organic Rankine Cycles (ORCs) power plants are gaining ever increasing interest as cost-effective sustainable energy systems. By using an appropriate organic working fluid in a Rankine thermodynamic cycle, ORC power plants are able to efficiently convert renewable energy sources into electricity. Their power capacity spans from few kWe to few MWe for a single unit, but multiple units in parallel can make up a multi megawatt power station. Among the multitude of applications of this technology, several stand out: ORC systems can be used to obtain electricity from geothermal reservoirs, biomass combustion and gasification, solar radiation, waste heat recovery from internal combustion engines and gas turbines, as well as a large variety of industrial processes discarding heat at low and moderate temperatures. The ORC market is growing at an impressive pace, with currently many hundreds of units of various sizes operating reliably for many years all over the world.
