  • Publication number: 20130327052
    Abstract: An exhaust system is provided for mitigating condensate formation in a common exhaust stack and for effecting improved heat transfer. Reduced condensate formation and improved heat transfer is achieved by inducing non-laminar flow through the common exhaust stack and a heat exchanger operatively coupled to the common exhaust stack. Heat transfer is further improved by dew point control. Non-laminar flow is induced by connecting more than one gas turbine to the common exhaust stack through non-laminar flow inducing arrangements. The various coupling arrangements also add structural rigidity to the common exhaust stack for increased stack height and improved plume dispersion.

  • Publication number: 20100000589
    Abstract: A solar PV module comprises an array of serially interconnected spaced PV solar cells on a common substrate, each cell comprising a 1st electrode on said substrate, an active PV film on the 1st electrode, a 2nd electrode, at least one of said electrodes being light transmitting and wherein the 2nd electrode of the nth solar cell of the array is connected to the 1st electrode of the succeeding, (n+1)th cell of the array via a portion of PV film which has a substantially higher conductivity than the remainder of the PV film. The novel structure of the present invention is achieved by substantially increasing the conductivity of a continuous light absorbing PV film in the area of desired electrical contact by doping the film in the desired areas.
