Absorber Performance with High CO2
Abstract Previous studies of CO2 absorption mainly focused on coal-fired flue gas with 12% CO2. However, in a hybrid process combining amine scrubbing with membrane technology, the CO2 concentration in the flue gas may be enriched to 20%. This work...

Reynold's model viscosity on radiative MHD flow in a porous medium between two vertical wavy walls
Abstract The two dimensional heat transfer of a free convective–radiative MHD (magnetohydrodynamics) flows with variable viscosity and heat source of a viscous incompressible fluid in a porous medium between two vertical wavy walls was investigated. ...
