An optimized process design for oxymethylene ethers production from woody-biomass-derived syngas
Download2016-01-01
Zhang, Xiaolei, Oyedun, Adetoyese Olajire, Kumar, Amit, Oestreich, Dorian, Arnold, Ulrich, Sauer, Jorg
The conversion of biomass for the production of liquid fuels can help reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that are predominantly generated by the combustion of fossil fuels. Oxymethylene ethers (OMEs) are a series of liquid fuel additives that can be obtained from syngas, which is produced...

CFD Simulation Of Condensation Heat Transfer In Mini/Micro-Channels—Application In Waste Heat Recovery
Download2022-06-01
Ebrahimnia-Bajestan, Ehsan, Gharibnavaz, Mehrdad, Jin, Mingchao, Li, Ri, Brinkerhoff, Joshua, Milani, Abbas
The recovery of waste heat from low-temperature flue gas can be improved by capturing the latent heat part through the condensation of the vapor component. For this purpose, investigating the important parameters in designing efficient heat exchangers is necessary. Therefore, this study aims to...

Challenges in computational modeling of two-phase transport in polymer electrolyte fuel cells flow channels: a review
Download2017-01-01
Excess of liquid water in gas channels of polymer electrolyte fuel cells is responsible for malfunctioning of these devices. Not only it decreases their efficiency via partial blockage of reactants and pressure drop, but it can also lead to the irreversible damage due to oxygen starvation in case...

Simulating Polymer Drag Reduction Using a Modified Mixing Length in Zero Pressure Gradient Boundary Layers
Download2022-06-01
White, J.J., Holloway, G.L., Jeans, T.L.
It is known that a small concentration of polymer introduced to the boundary layer can produce significant drag reduction for liquid flows. This effect has been studied extensively for internal flow and polymer injection in external flow, though much is still unknown about the underlying...
