Projected energies

If spin contamination is small, continue to use unrestricted methods, preferably with spin-annihilated wave functions and spin projected energies. Do not use spin projection with DFT methods. When the amount of spin contamination is more significant, use restricted open-shell methods. If all else fails, use highly correlated methods. 

Fig. 1. Effect of energy use on total cost where total cost is the sum of capital and energy costs for the lifetime of the plant, discounted to present value. Point D corresponds to the design point if the designer uses an energy price that is low by a factor of four in projected energy price. Effects on costs of (a) pressure drop in piping, (b) pressure drop in exchangers, (c) heat loss through insulation, (d) reflux use, and (e) energy recovery through waste-heat boiler...

According to the DOE Energy Information Administration projections, energy demand is likely to grow dramatically, perhaps quadrupling by the end of the next century. World electricity consumption is expected to nearly double by 2020, with annual growth in the industrialized countries averaging about one and one-half percent.

A further alternative is to remove the higher-spin states from the unrestricted wavefunction by means of a spin-projection operator. Spin-projected energies are designated by a P prefix (e.g. PHF, PMP).

The shape of the yrast line qualitatively resembles the projected energy curve, but as seen in Figure 3, the projected and unprojected bands differ significantly. The angular momentum projection is done from the GSB.

Current US primary energy consumption is about 102 exajoules (EJ) (97 Quads) and is expected to increase to >137 EJ (130 Quads) by 2020. Transportation fuels produced from oil are projected to account for nearly one-third of the projected energy use by 2020, with nearly 68% of the oil imported from unstable and/or unfriendly countries, resulting in a trade imbalance of more than 206 billion (US in 2001). Additionally, the use of fossil fuels for transportation and electricity is a significant contributor of greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide (1-4). 

Unfortunately, this equation is considerably more complex than the projective energy expression given in Eq. [50], since there is no natural truncation of its power series expansion,...

Several Federal facilities have been identified as potential host sites, meeting most of the energy station host criteria developed as a part of this project. Energy and cost estimates will be presented in the final report of this project.

In this project, energy optimization was used as an enabler to move the bottleneck from expensive-to-fix locations to cheaper ones, allowing optimization of process conditions and designs. Actually achieving and implementing this synergy is difficult as one needs to pay attention to every detail of practical feasibility.

The International Energy Agency projects energy demand and supply to 2050. Under the current and planned energy and environmental policies, and in the absence of major supply constraints, energy-related C02 emissions would rise to 60 Gigatonnes (Gtonnes). Alternatives to the BAU scenario are two primary options of emission reduction ...
