PHYSICAL AND NUMERICAL MODELLING OF HEAT-FLOW PROCESSES IN TANGENTIALLY PULVERIZED FUEL-FIRED BOILER
The paper presents results of three-dimensional physical modelling and computer simulations of fluid-flow structures, mixing and combustion processes in a 125MW tangentially fuel-fired boiler and additional fuel – natural gas.

On the physics description of fusion plasmas i [PDF]
The one fluid, two fluid and kinetic descriptions of fusion plasmas are discussed from basic theoretical points and from that of application to present day problems of relevance to fusion reactors. In particular both statistical and deterministic aspects

Thermal regime of the Costa Rican convergent margin: 1. Along-strike variations in heat flow from probe measurements and estimated from bottom-simulating reflectors [PDF]
21 pages, 9 figures, 1 tableThe thermal structure of convergent margins provides information related to the tectonics, geodynamics, metamorphism, and fluid flow of active plate boundaries. We report 176 heat flow measurements made with a violin bow style

Planetary origin, evolution, and structure [PDF]
Three areas of recent and ongoing research are presented. The first area is giant planet heatflows. Conventional wisdom attributes the heatflow of the giant planets to the gradual loss of primordial heat, except in the case of Saturn where helium ...

The role of nonuniform internal heating in Triton's energy budget [PDF]
Triton's large heliocentric distance and high albedo, combined with its unusually large silicate mass fraction, make internal heating more important in its energy budget than in that of any other icy satellite. Brown et al.

Kinetic modeling of Nernst effect in magnetized hohlraums [PDF]
We present nanosecond time-scale Vlasov-Fokker-Planck-Maxwell modeling of magnetized plasma transport and dynamics in a hohlraum with an applied external magnetic field, under conditions similar to recent experiments.

A study of the impact of dislocations on the thermoelectric properties of quantum wells in the Si/SiGe materials system [PDF]
Thermoelectric materials generate electricity from thermal energy using the Seebeck effect to generate a voltage and an electronic current from a temperature difference across the semiconductor.

Habitable Climates: The Influence of Eccentricity
In the outer regions of the habitable zone, the risk of transitioning into a globally frozen "snowball" state poses a threat to the habitability of planets with the capacity to host water-based life. We use a one-dimensional energy balance climate model (

Volcanic intrusions and hydrothermal activity have modified the diagenetic minerals. In the Ulster Basin, UK, most of the authigenic mineralization in the Permo-Triassic sandstones pre-dated tertiary volcanic intrusions.
