Energy‐Efficient Induction Carbonization: Tailoring Pore Structures in Hard Carbon Anodes Toward Enhanced Electrochemical Performance

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hard carbon (HC) is currently the predominant anode material for sodium‐ion batteries; however, its practical application is still limited by insufficient initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) and plateau capacity. Meanwhile, conventional HC production relies on energy‐intensive carbonization processes with considerable carbon emissions. Here, an

Investigation of high-resolution methods in large-eddy simulation of subsonic and supersonic wall turbulent flows

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis presents the motivation, objectives and reasoning behind the undertaken PhD to investigate the capability of compressible Implicit Large Eddy Simulation (ILES) in simulating wall-bounded inhomogeneous flows with particular interest in the ...

Large-eddy simulation of heat transfer from a single cube mounted on a very rough wall

open access: yes, 2013
The local thermal effects in the wake of a single cube, which represents a tall building in an urban area, are studied using large-eddy simulations (LES) for forced, mixed and free convection cases that are characterised by Richardson number, Ri.

Development of a Mechanically Regenerating Desublimator for Freeze‐Drying Systems in the Food Industry

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Thermal defrosting limits desublimator efficiency in freeze‐drying. This review and case study compares thermal versus mechanical regeneration, links frost properties and external heat transfer to energy demand, and summarizes pilot‐scale scraping results enabling single‐unit, continuous lyophilization.

Effect of different flue gas recirculation rates on low‐NOx combustion characteristics: A numerical simulation based on the combustion process of a gas boiler

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract NOx emissions from gas boilers severely impact the environment, and flue gas recirculation (FGR) technology can effectively reduce such emissions, yet the effects of different FGR rates on combustion performance and NOx formation remain unclear. This study thus used numerical simulation (via ANSYS Fluent, adopting the realizable k‐ε turbulence

Quasi‐Static Closed‐Loop Wind‐Farm Control for Combined Power and Fatigue Optimization

open access: yesWind Energy
To counteract detrimental turbine–turbine aerodynamic interactions within large farms and increase overall power production, closed‐loop wind‐farm control strategies such as wake steering have emerged as a popular means to facilitate real‐time wind‐farm ...

Economic and environmental implications of the development of UASB reactors in Mexico for sustainable industrial wastewater treatment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...
