Coupled heat transfer and chemical reaction of fluid flow in complex boundaries are explored by introducing two additional properties, i.e., particle type and energy state into the Lattice gas automata (LGA) Frisch–Hasslacher–Pomeau (FHP-II) model. A mix-redistribute of energy and type of particles is also applied on top of collision rules to ensure randomness while maintaining the conservation...

The tests were carried out with the spark timing adjusted to the maximum brake torquetiming in various equivalence ratios and engine speeds for gasoline and natural gas operations. In thiswork, the lower heating value of gasoline is about 13.6% higher than that of natural gas. Based on theexperimental results, the natural gas operation causes an increase of about 6.2% brake special fuelconsumpt...

 Research methods. The calculation temperature-velocity characteristics powder is performed after determining channel using well known dependencies. initial ...

This report describes three 2400-MW(t) reference point designs for the moltencoolant gas cycle (MCGC), based on the current power conversion unit (PCU) designs for the GT-MHR. A very-high-temperature helium cycle with a 900°C turbine inlet temperature achieves a thermodynamic efficiency of 54% and net electric output of 1300 MW(e), while a low-temperature helium cycle with a 600°C turbine inlet...

Numerical modeling of the cooling a vapor-gas mixture by evaporating water drops has been carried out. An expression is proposed using characteristic temperature, which determines dependence time on initial temperature mixture. A technique for determining based results numerical simulation presented. estimate error in obtained expressions made. Keywords: mixture, thermal relaxation, simulation,...

In this paper, a non-isothermal two-phase flow in the cathode gas diffusion layer (GDL) of PEM fuel cell is modeled. The governing equations including energy, mass and momentum conservation equations are solved by numerical methods. Also, the optimal values of the effective parameters such as the electrodes porosity, gas diffusion layer (GDL) thickness and inlet relative humidity are calculated...

This paper presents a theoretical model and a numerical simulation of a liquid-gas two-phase flow within a microchannel (50 500 2 m m cm μ μ × × ) equipped with distributed liquid water injection through the side walls. The modeling and solution of the conservation equations provide pressure drop as a function of inlet velocity. The influence of different parameters involving water injection is...

Diffusion processes have a significant effect on the structure of a low-density gas mixture flow near blunt bodies [1], [2]. The effect of abnormal increasing of the temperature recovery factor at the stagnation point of a blunt body in the rarefied gas mixture flow was studied experimentally by Maise and Fenn [3]. The structure of rarefied gas mixture flows about a sphere was analyzed by Molod...

in this study a heat exchanger is designed for cooling exhaust gas and an experiment is carried out to investigate the effect of exhaust gas recirculation (egr) temperature on destruction of the fuel’s availability due to combustion processes in idi diesel engine cylinder. to serve this aim an exergy analysis is conducted on the engine cylinder which provides all the availability terms by which...

conclusions in samples stored in plastic syringes, overestimation of pao2 levels should be noted if samples cooled before analysis. in samples stored in plastic syringes, it is not necessary to store samples in iced water when analysis delayed up to one hour. results pao2 of the samples stored at 0°c was increased significantly after 60 minutes (p = 0.007). the paco2 of the samples kept for 30 ...
