Effects of Staged Injection on Supersonic Mixing and Combustion
Abstract The three-dimensional (3D) reacting flow in a staged supersonic combustor is examined numerically. In order to obtain the optimum stream-wise vortices, a swept ramp injector is chosen as the second-stage wall injection combined with the...

Multi-scale modelling of bioreactor–separator system for wastewater treatment with two-dimensional activated sludge floc dynamics
Abstract A simple “first generation” multi-scale computational model of the formation of activated sludge flocs at micro-scale and reactor performance at macro-scale is proposed. The model couples mass balances for substrates and biomass at reactor...

Characterization and some properties of cellulose acetate-co-polyethylene oxide blends prepared by the use of gamma irradiation
Abstract Cellulose acetate (CA), polyethylene oxide (PEO) copolymer blend was prepared using γ-rays as initiator. PEO as an additive was added with different concentrations (0 – 5%) based on cellulose acetate. As the PEO is water soluble, some...

Investigation of breakage characteristics of low rank coals in a laboratory swing hammer mill
Abstract The breakage characteristics of low rank coals were tested in a laboratory using ECO coal from an Indonesian mine as the feed material. The grinding test results were used to fit the parameters of the breakage functions of an existing...

Application of Different Low-Reynolds k-ɛ Turbulence Models to Model the Flow of Concentrated Pulp Suspensions in Pipes
Abstract In the pulp and paper industry, the design of industrial equipment based on empirical correlations can be avoided using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tools. The present study aims at investigation of the turbulent pipe flow of...

Numerical analysis of strain rate sensitivity in ball indentation on cohesive powder Beds
Abstract In the shear deformation of powder beds beyond the quasi-static regime the shear stress is dependent on the strain rate. Extensive work has been reported on the rapid chute flow of large granules but the intermediate regime has not been...

Drag of a D-shaped bluff body under small amplitude harmonic actuation
Abstract Open-loop flow control method was used to affect the development of a turbulent wake behind a D-shaped bluff body. Loud speakers were embedded inside the bluff body to produce two zero-net-mass-flux jets through 2 mm-wide span-wise slots...

On the reactivity of various biomass species with CO2 using a standardised methodology for fixed-bed gasification
Abstract A standardised method for studying the kinetics of CO2 gasification was applied to seven different biomass species from Europe and Asia. The aim was to gain a truer understanding of variations in feedstock behaviour inside fixed bed biomass ...
