Smouldering ground fires have severe environmental implications. Their main effects are the release of large amounts of carbon to the atmosphere with loses of organic soil and its biota. Quantitative data on the behaviour ...

Accurate characterisation of mixing at the subfilter level is a critical aspect in many LES combustion models, such as flamelet based and Conditional Moment Closure models. Several models can be found in the literature, ...

En esta primera parte del artículo, se estudia experimentalmente la cinética de la descomposición térmica de cinco tipos diferentes de madera residual por medio de ensayos dinámicos realizados por análisis termogravimétrico ...

A lean partially premixed swirling combustor was studied by resolving the complete flow path from the swirl vanes to the chamber outlet with large-eddy simulation (LES). The flow and combustion dynamics for non-reacting ...

The present paper extends the conservative finite element convective scheme proposed by Charnyi et al.(Journal of Computational Physics 337, 2017, 289–308) originally formulated for incompressible flows to the low Mach ...

An open superstructure: A Pd/CeO2 catalyst prepared by solution combustion synthesis is three to five times more active for CH4 combustion than the best conventional palladium-based systems. The catalyst contains an ordered, ...

The study and optimization of Combustion processes has transcended the engineering necessity to become an environmental concern. Recent regulations implement growing restrictions on emissions produced in industries that ...

In this study, a series of conventional polycrystalline ceria and single-crystalline ceria nanorods and nanocubes were prepared by hydrothermal methods, and their structural, redo; and morphological properties were ...

Single step combustion synthesized Cu (5–15 at.-%)/Ce0.8Zr0.2O2 materials containing highly dispersed copper have been assessed for methanol steam reforming (MSR). The activity patterns suggest Cu (10 at.-%)/Ce0.80Zr0.20O2 ...
