Kinetics-free equilibrium models can predict the exit gas composition, given the solid composition and the equilibrium temperature, but they cannot be used for reactor design Hence, there is a need to develop a combined transport and kinetic model which takes into account of the kinetics of homogeneous and heterogeneous chemical reactions, transport of volatiles produced, heat and mass transfer...

By means of the ultrafast X-ray tomography facility, data were obtained at different superficial gas velocities UG in a bubble column (0.1 m in ID) operated with an air-deionized water system at ambient conditions. Raw reconstructed images were treated by both the information entropy (IE) and the reconstruction entropy (RE) algorithms in order to identify the main transition velocities in a bub...

The current study was an attempt to investigate the impact of grouping type on the grammatical accuracy of Iranian EFL learners in collaborative writing. Through administering the Michigan Test of English Language Proficiency, 64 female university students available participated in this study and were assigned to two groups--heterogeneous and homogeneous. The treatment process lasted 12 weeks o...

D PR OO F Abstract In this paper, we have studied synchronized flow and phase separations in mixed (heterogeneous) single-lane highway traffic. It is found that the flux–density (occupancy) curve of heterogeneous flow, as expected, lies in between two flux–density (occupancy) curves of homogeneous flow R 1⁄4 0 (all vehicles are slow vehicles) and R 1⁄4 1 (all vehicles are fast vehicles). Howeve...

reservoir models with many grid blocks suffer from long run time; it is hence important to deliberatea method to remedy this drawback. usual upscaling methods are proved to fail to reproduce fine gridmodel behaviors in coarse grid models in well proximity. this is attributed to rapid pressure changesin the near-well region. standard permeability upscaling methods are limited to systems with lin...
