Three-dimensional modeling of transport phenomena in a planar anode-supported solid oxide fuel cell
In this article three dimensional modeling of a planar solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) was investigated. The main objective was to attain the optimized cell operation. SOFC operation simulation involves a large number of parameters, complicated equations, (mostly partial differential equations), and a sophisticated simulation technique; hence, a finite element method (FEM) multiphysics approach ...
متن کاملPlanar and SPECT Monte Carlo acceleration using a variance reduction technique in I131 imaging
Background: Various variance reduction techniques such as forced detection (FD) have been implemented in Monte Carlo (MC) simulation of nuclear medicine in an effort to decrease the simulation time while keeping accuracy. However most of these techniques still result in very long MC simulation times for being implemented into routine use. Materials and Methods: Convolution-based force...
متن کاملFree porosity investigation of compacted bentonite using XRD
Many countries intend to use compacted bentonite as a barrier in their deep geological repositories for nuclear waste. In order to describe and predict hydraulic conductivity or radionuclide transport through the bentonite barrier, fundamental understanding of the microstructure of compacted bentonite is needed. This study examined the interlayer swelling and overall microstructure of Wyoming B...
متن کاملModel Calculations and Assessment of the Importance of the Colloidal based Radionuclide Transport in a Waste Repository in Granite
Highly compacted bentonite buffers are planned to be used as engineered barriers in the near-field of nuclear waste repositories in crystalline formations. The erosion of these bentonite buffers at the boundary to the surrounding Excavation Disturbed Zone (EDZ) can be a source of colloids leading to a notable concentration of colloids in the EDZ water, which is high above the natural colloid co...
متن کاملContamination transport into saturated land upon advection-diffusionsorption including decay
The objective of this paper is to describe governing numerical equation and solution algorithm of pollution transport mechanisms and factors essential to include in developing relatively simple and practical tools to quantify pollution loss, advection, diffusion and sorption in pollution transport into the groundwater at landfill sites. This paper presents the development of a numerical model t...
