Tarkoituksena on palvella sekä yleistä tiedon tarvetta tällä alalla kansallisesti että erityisesti valmisteilla olevaa uusiutuvien liikenteen energiamuotojen koulutus- ja tutkimushanketta Pohjois-Karjalassa. Julkaisu on tehty osana Pohjois-Karjalan maakuntaliiton tulevaisuusrahaston rahoitta- maa hanketta ”Liikennebiokaasun ja muiden liikenteen uusiutuvien energialähteiden ja investointien kehittämishanke – osa 1: valmisteluvaihe”. Tulevaisuusrahaston lisäksi han- ketta rahoittivat Joensuun Seudun Jätehuolto Oy, Kontiolahden kunta sekä Joensuun Seudun Kehittämisyhtiö Josek Oy. Pohjois-Karjalan Ammattikorkeakoulu toimi han- kepartnerina ja Pohjois-Karjalan Ammattikorkeakoulun koordinoima Pohjoisen peri- feriaohjelman MicrE-hanke osallistui tämän julkaisun rahoittamiseen. Hankkeen oh- jausryhmässä olivat Erkki Kettunen (pj.) Joensuun Seudun Jätehuolto Oy:stä, Pasi Pit- känen Pohjois-Karjalan maakuntaliitosta, Kimmo Kurkko Josek Oy:stä, Antti Suontama Kontiolahden kunnasta ja Ville Kuittinen Pohjois-Karjalan Ammattikorkeakoulusta. Hankkeen hallinnoija ja toteuttaja oli Joensuun Seudun Jätehuolto Oy. Projektipäällik- könä toimi Ari Lampinen ja projektisihteerinä Anu Laakkonen.

Mobile thermal energy storage 6. Combined heat and power CHP 7. Combined heat and mobility CHM 1. The importance of the steam engine in the history of the world The steam engine is one of the most important inventions. It enabled industrialization and considerably accelerated land and sea transport: 1. Wheel 2. Book printing 3. Light bulb 4. Steam engine 10. Combustion engine …. 12. Internet 13. Car 34. Ship …. 37. Airplane …. 39. Electric motor 40. Mobile phone …. 66. Steam turbine Developed in 2013 by a team of experts on behalf of Popular Mechanics USA 2. Industrial Steam is indispensable Nuclear energy, coal, biomass and municipal waste produce steam, which in turn generates electricity by means of steam turbines. In Germany, around 70% of the electricity is generated by steam power. Electro-mobility cannot be realized without steam technology. 3. Advantages of Steam Technology • „All “ fuels and energies can be used: – Coal (lump coal, briquettes, dust; hard coal, lignite, anthracite) – Oil (heavy oil, light oil, waste oil, organic oil) – Gas (natural gas, CNG, LNG, biogas, Kompogas) – Biomasse (wood, pellets, bagasse, Chinese reed, peat) – Waste and waste heat, geothermal, solar thermal, wind energy • Direct drive without clutch and gearbox • Independent of catenery, no system failures • Robust, reliable, no or few electronic devices • Silent if condensation or storage technology is used • Large storage capacity (hot water under pressure) • Huge development potential The following six slides show steam locomotives and steam ships with CO2-neutral biomass firing SBB’s type A 3/5 with wood firing During the war, Swiss Federal Railways SBB fired some of its steam locomotives with wood instead of coal, without any major modifications.

  • On Brown's Tramway Locomotive
    44 JAN. 1880. ON BROWN’S TRAMWAY LOCOMOTIVE. BY ME. B. C. BROWNE,-OF NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE. The conditions that are required to be fulfilled in a Tramway Locomotive over and above those of &II ordinary locomotive are tolerably well recognised, and may be enumerated as follows :- (a) There must be no visible smoke or steam, no visible fire, no noise of either blast or machinery, and no visible working parts. The object of all these restrictions is to avoid frightening horses or annoying the public. (6) The engine must work both ways, the driver being always in a commanding position; it must be able to exert great power for starting and stopping on steep inclines, and must both start end stop very easily ; it must run round sharp curves, and adapt itself to any inequalities in the road ; its working parts must be readily accessible and easily repaired; its firing and feeding must need no attention while it is running ; lastly, it must be worked of course by one man. These are matters of practice and economy. (c) The Board of Trade requires beyond these a speed indicator always visible to the driver, a governor, and a bell or whistle for signalling. The writer, having carefully considered these conditions, came to the conclusion that among existing engines they were best and most economically met by the engine ofMr. Charles Brown of Winterthur, mention of which has already been made in M. Mallet’s paper read before the Institution in Paris, in June 1878. This engine has worked regularly in Geneva since the summer of 1877 ; in Milan since the beginning of 1878 ; in Hamburg and Strasburg since the summer of 1878 ; in Paris since the autumn of 1878 ; in Rome and Tivoli since June 1879 ; in Ribeauville since August 1879 ; in Florence and Cuneo Downloaded from pme.sagepub.com at Purdue University Libraries on June 4, 2016 JAN.

I wish to acknowledge the role played by our families, and especially the spouses, in putting up with us and our hobby. We appreciate your tolerance and support in what, to the rest of the world, might seem like a hobby for little boys. We had a very successful swap meet last month even though there were one or two minor hiccups, which were easily fixed. I want to extend a big thank you to all those who came to assist with the set-up and break down on that day and in particular I wish to acknowledge the assistance of the lady and those gentlemen who assisted: Ash, Brian, Dave W, Glynn, Hansie, Jan, Jimmy, Kevin, Margaret W and Colin TT.
