ALTERNATIVE ENERGY

System architecture: a guideline in rethinking energy

Economic and environmental stakes have gone hand in hand with the growth of a significant use of alternative energies.  From the car to the home and even ships, the inclusion of these new energies must be the subject of a specific system approach adapted to the issues involving the safety and output of each fuel.

EACH ALTERNATIVE ENERGY HAS ITS SOLUTION

All the ARIAMIS engineers have a speciality. This comes with knowledge and expertise. This also applies to the adaptation of systems, subsystems and components to all sorts of alternative energy. For example, this is the case for natural gas. From its storage through to its transport up to the energy transformer, perfect knowledge of the existing solutions on the market is needed depending on whether it is used compressed at 200 bars or in liquid form at minus 163 degrees. ARIAMIS has therefore set up reference modelling for the optimum use of the Boil-off. The approach is the same for hydrogen, LPG or electricity, and each time there is the same constant: setting up the right system architecture with an optimised selection and sizing of the components to guarantee a good level of safety.

by the new energy source

COMBINING WINNING ENERGIES

The ARIAMIS engineering firm regularly works on implementing hybrid solutions that combine two types of energy. We can mention Diesel Dual Fuel (DDF) engines in which natural gas is ignited by injecting diesel into the combustion chamber. Another example which was the subject of partnerships with famous car manufacturers: the Range Extender, an autonomy extender for electric vehicles that calls on a small combustion engine.
