Characterization of biomass combustion at high temperatures based on an upgraded single particle model
Abstract Biomass co-firing is becoming a promising solution to reduce CO2 emissions, due to its renewability and carbon neutrality. Biomass normally has high moisture and volatile contents, complicating its combustion behavior, which is...

The effects of filling patterns on the powder–binder separation in powder injection molding
Abstract The powder–binder separation is a common difficulty during injection molding, which leads to the inhomogeneity in the debinding and sintering stages. Previous studies focus on the relationship between “final results” and “initial...

Novel fluid grid and voidage calculation techniques for a discrete element model of a 3D cylindrical fluidized bed
Abstract A discrete element model (DEM) combined with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was developed to model particle and fluid behaviour in 3D cylindrical fluidized beds. Novel techniques were developed to (1) keep fluid cells, defined in...
