The technology of a pulsed detonation gun for gasification organic waste with ultra-superheated steam has been experimentally demonstrated the first time. Experiments were performed on natural gas conversion as well liquid (waste machine oil) and solid (wood sawdust) by hot products gas–oxygen mixture at frequency pulses f = 1 Hz. Periodic release to 100 L flow reactor provided time-averaged me...

The effects of vitreous humor and some of its components on the function of rabbit corneal endothelium were investigated and compared to those of artificial and natural aqueous humor. The rate of fluid pumping across the endothelium was measured while that layer was in contact with: (1) complete medium, an artificial aqueous solution; (2) pooled rabbit aqueous humor; (3) filtered and (4) unfilt...

This paper analyzes natural circulation flow in solid breeder blanket designs with poloidal coolant channels under a LOFA condition. Analyses couple the flow transient behaviors with transient heat transport models. While two-phase natural circulation exists in the system, a homogenous mixture model is used. The results of example calculations performed for an ITER solid breeder design concept ...

The aim of the present numerical study is to analyze the conjugate natural convection heat transfer in a differentially heated square enclosure containing a conductive polygon object. The left wall is heated and the right wall is cooled, while the horizontal walls are kept adiabatic. The COMSOL Multiphysics software is applied to solve the dimensionless governing equations. The governing parame...
