Catalytic Combustion of Syngas

Catalytic Combustion of Syngas

The catalytic combustion of syngas/air mixtures over Pt has been investigated numerically in a channel-flow configuration using 2D steady and transient computer codes with detailed hetero-/homogeneous chemistry, transport, and heat transfer mechanisms in the solid. Simulations were carried out for syngas compositions with varying H2 and CO contents, pressures of 1 to 15 bar, and linear velociti...

Optimization of the Syngas Combustion Chemistry Model

Practically, an accurate combustion chemistry model is of great importance in engine simulations when it is combined with the computational fluid dynamics computations. Syngas is used as one of the fuel options in internal combustion engines. In the current work, we optimize a combustion chemistry model of syngas using machine learning algorithms. Result shows that the optimized model can achie...

Catalytic Combustion of Methane

Catalytic combustion is an environmentally benign technology which has recently reached the stage of commercialization. Palladium is the catalyst of choice when considering gas turbines fuelled with natural gas because of its superior activity for methane oxidation. Several fundamental issues are still open and their understanding would result in an improvement of the technology. Hence, the wor...
