In the present paper, a numerical study is presented to investigate the cascade utilization of waste heat in sinter cooling bed. With the aid of CFD (computational fluid dynamics), a two-dimensional unsteady mathematical model, which would significantly reduce the computational time, is...

Kaolinite is one of the most naturally occurring industrial minerals, which has inherent advantages such as low cost, flame retardant, porous lamellar structure. In this paper, a novel FSPCM (form-stable phase change material) for thermal energy storage is prepared by absorbing LA (lauric acid)...

An IFA300 constant temperature anemometer system is adopted to perform cold air experiments on a scale model of a dual circle tangential firing single furnace ultra supercritical boiler to investigate the causes and influencing factors of jet deviation in the furnace, which is the main cause of...

An advanced biofuels supply chain is proposed to reduce biomass transportation costs and take advantage of the economics of scale for a gasification facility. In this supply chain, biomass is converted to bio-oil at widely distributed small-scale fast pyrolysis plants, and after bio-oil...
