A kinetic model for the hydrodesulfurization process was developed and verified. The model was utilized to predict the sulfur content of products under different operating conditions. The effects of temperature, space velocity, pressure, and hydrogen concentration on the dcsulfurization rate were investigated.展开更多

The computational results show that the training algorithm with Gauss-Newton optimization has fast convergent speed. The experimental investigation indicates that, compared with mechanistic modeling approach, intelligent modeling procedure can obviously increase the precision in both soil pressure fitting and forecasting period. The effectiveness and accuracy of proposed intelligent modeling procedure are verified in laboratory tests.展开更多

These include viscous free surface flow interaction with free rigid bodies in the case of large and/or relative motions. Two-phase flow with complex deformations at the interface was simulated using a fractional step-volume of fluid algorithm. In addition, body motions were captured by an overlapping mesh system. Here, flow variables are transferred using a simple fully implicit non-conservative interpolation scheme which maintains the second-order accuracy of implemented spatial discretisation. Code was developed and an appropriate set of problems investigated. Results show good potential for development of a virtual hydrodynamics laboratory.展开更多

Thyristor switched capacitor bank was chosen because it is a well known topology, considering the very nature of the direct starting induction motors, which represents a highly inductive load, the use of switched reactors becomes unnecessary. Such fact minimizes the introduction of harmonics components, and also reduces the cost of the implementation. The binary disposition of the banks allows a variable Var compensation with sixteen steps, in this case. The solution makes use of low cost devices combined with sliding window voltage and current measurement algorithm and a PI control with dead band control for achieve the shown experimental results, where the system is able to manage a typically 20% voltage drop, reducing it to less than 4%. The schematic of the developed circuit, the control technique and a quite simple method to calculate the binary weight capacitors banks are also presented.展开更多

Both numerical and ex- perimental researches are carried out to study its effects on the motor performances. The hybrid rocket motor with star fuel grain is utilized. The 90% hydrogen peroxide (HP) oxidizer and hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) based fuel are adopted as propellants. The diaphragm configuration settled in the aft mixing chamber includes four circular-holes with a uni- form circumferential distribution. For both motors with and without the diaphragm, three-dimensional numerical simulations with gaseous combustions considered are carried out to study the flow field characteristics and motor performances. The com- parison results show that the diaphragm can improve the mixing of the oxidizer and fuel. It has evident effect on increasing the motor efflciencies. Two firing experiments are conducted with full scale motors to investigate the effects of the diaphragm. The diaphragm used in the test is composed of a central steel framework and a closed thermal insulation layer. With the dia- phragm employed, the combustion efficiency increases from 93.9% to 97.34% and the specific impulse efficiency increases from 80.77% to 87.28%, which verifies the positive effect of the diaphragm. Both numerical and experimental studies indicate that the scheme of the aft mixing chamber diaphragm proposed in the paper can improve the efficiencies of the hybrid rocket motor obviously.展开更多
