We divided the condensable volatiles into two groups, based on the characteristics of the liquid prdoducts., tar and biomass oil. The effects of temperature, residence time, particle size, velocity, pressure, and other parameters on biomass pyrolysis and high-temperature tar cracking were investigated numerically, and the results were compared with experimental data. The simulation results showed a large endothermic pyrolysis reaction effect on temperature and the reaction process. The pyrolysis reaction zone had a constant temperature period in several layers near the center of large biomass particles. A purely physical heating process was observed before and after this period, according to the temperature index curve.展开更多

The solutions of such problems for the cases of uniform surface temperature and variable surface temperature have been studied and analysed in many papers. This paper, however, attempts to find similarity solutions for the Darcy flow problem with a convective boundary condition at the plate surface. It is found that the solution is possible when the heat transfer coefficient is proportional to x<sup>–2/3</sup>. The numerical solutions thus obtained are analyzed for a range of values of the parameter characterizing the hot fluid convection process. Analytical expressions are provided for local surface heat flux and total surface heat transfer rate while the flow variables are discussed graphically.展开更多

Flows are governed by the Stokes and Darcy equations, respectively, and the corresponding transmission conditions are given by mass conservation, balance of normal forces, and the Beavers-Joseph-Saffman law. The approach utilizes a modification of the Darcy problem which allows us to apply a variant nonconforming Crouzeix-Raviart finite element to the whole coupled Stokes-Darcy problem. The well-posedness of the finite element scheme and its convergence analysis are derived. Finally, the numerical experiments are presented, which confirm the excellent stability and accuracy of our method.展开更多

The relationship between the hydraulic gradient and the flow velocity at different points, and the proportion evolution of the linear and nonlinear portions in the Forchheimer formula are then discussed. Three major conclusions are obtained. First, the non-Darcian flow exists in a single fracture in different laboratory tests. Better fitting accuracy is obtained by using the Forchheimer formula than by using the Darcy law. Second, the proportion of the Darcy flow increases with the increase of the observation scale. In places far enough, the Darcy flow prevails, and the critical velocity between the non-Darcian flow and the Darcy flow decreases as the fracture aperture increases. Third, when the fracture aperture increases, the critical Reynolds number between the non-Darcian flow and the Darcy flow decreases.展开更多
