Study on the effect of using reformed biogas as a low reactivity fuel in a dual-fuel engine (RCCI)
The scarceness of non-renewable energies, rising fossil fuels prices, as well as strict environmental regulations have forced many researchers to focus on utilizing environmentally friendly renewable energies such as biogas in internal combustion engines. Variety in raw materials and process of biogas production results in different components and percentages of various elements, including meth...
متن کاملLow Platinum Loading Catalysts for Fuel Cells
Objectives • Further improve the new catalyst consisting of a submonolayer of Pt on carbon-supported Ru nanoparticles (1%Pt/10%Ru/C) to come close to the DOE’s 2010 target of 100 μg/cm2 noble metal loading. • Further elucidate the inhibition mechanism of CO on H2 oxidation on Pt. • Reduce Ru loadings in Pt-Ru electrocatalysts. • Explore monolayer-level-supported Pt electrocatalysts for O2 reduc...
متن کاملModal Analysis of Spent Fuel Cask for WWER-1000 Reactors
The Spent Fuel Assemblies (SFAs) of WWER-1000 reactors are planned to be transported by special containers which are supposed to be designed in a manner to stand against vibrations and impacts in order to protect the spent fuel from any possible damage. The vibration opposition of these containers shall be far beyond the critical resonance, because the resonances about the natural frequency of ...
متن کاملPyrochemical Processes for Lwr Spent Fuel
Pyrochemical processes are under development at Argonne National Laboratory for recovery of transuranium (TRU) elements from light water reactor spent fuel. The recovered TRU elements will be used as fuel in the integral fast reactor (IFR). Burning these long-lived isotopes for electrical power generation has the additional benefit of reducing the burden on the geological repository for their l...
متن کاملA Rolling Horizon Framework for Intermodal Loading Assignment to Improve Fuel Efficiency
Aerodynamic efficiency of intermodal freight trains can be significantly improved by minimizing the adjusted gap lengths between adjacent loads. This paper first develops a static model to optimize load placement on a sequence of intermodal trains that have scheduled departure times. This model applies when full information on all trains and loads is available. Then, a dynamic model is develope...
