Heat loss through packed bed reactor walls’
November 1, 2014 0 0Predicting heat loss through packed bed reactor walls’ by Conjugate Heat Transfer (Project under development at LuXDEM). A large number of engineering applications involve granular material or a particulate phase in combination with a gaseous or liquid phase. Predominant applications are as diverse as biomass combustion, iron production, hard-material production, pharmaceutical industry e.g. drug production…
Discretising Hard metals
October 21, 2014 0 0A numerical and parallelised method to describe a reacting packed bed in contact with a gas phase is being developed by linking material and computer sciences. Packed bed processes are important engineering applications as encountered in renewable energy and hard metal production. The latter in particular is investigated for conversion of pulverised tungsten oxide to…
Simulation of WO3 reduction in H2
October 15, 2014 0 1Simulation of WO3 reduction in H2 Reduction of WO3 to tungsten in a hydrogen atmosphere is described by well–known reaction schemes, for which temperature and reaction progress is described by the Discrete Particle Method (DPM). Hydrogen as a gaseous phase is introduced as a reducing agent that streams over a packed bed of tungsten…
Manual de Proyección Duradera para la Construcción
January 3, 2014 0 0This is a master thesis that is being developed in and for Mexico. My contribution to this research it’s rather limited, but it’s a subject that I really would like to develop/extend (help to develop/extend) in other context or countries. For more information about this research please contact: Ing. Cesar Saldivar
