In‐situ asphaltene capture with iron oxide nanoparticles in steam‐assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) for improved recovery and partial upgrading of bitumen

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Key improvements obtained by incorporating nanoparticles into a lab‐scale SAGD process configuration. The bar plots show enhanced oil recovery, reduced viscosity, and increased asphaltene adsorption in nanoparticle‐assisted scenarios compared with conventional SAGD.

Effects of swirl on intermittency characteristics in turbulent non-premixed flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Swirl effects on velocity, mixture fraction and temperature intermittency have been analysed for turbulent methane flames using LES. The LES solves the filtered governing equations on a structured Cartesian grid using a finite volume method, with ...

Non-Premixed Filtered Tabulated Chemistry: Filtered Flame Modeling of Diffusion Flames

open access: yesFuels, 2021
The flame front filtering is a well-known strategy in turbulent premixed combustion. An extension of this approach for the non-premixed combustion context has been proposed by means of directly filtering counterflow diffusion flamelets. Promising results

Nanocubes and Cuboctahedra: Entropic Stabilization Versus Thermal Segregation in Rock Salt‐ and Spinel‐Type Multinary Oxides from Spray‐Flame Synthesis

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Spray‐flame synthesis enables highly flexible and scalable production of multinary and high‐entropy oxide nanoparticles due to high synthesis temperatures with subsequent quenching. Temperature‐dependent in situ diffraction of as‐synthesized materials clearly reveals entropy stabilization in rock salt lattices, while spinels—featuring tetrahedral and ...

An Experimental Investigation on the Combustion and Heat Release Characteristics of an Opposed-Piston Folded-Cranktrain Diesel Engine

open access: yesEnergies, 2015
In opposed-piston folded-cranktrain diesel engines, the relative movement rules of opposed-pistons, combustion chamber components and injector position are different from those of conventional diesel engines.

Fuel reactivity controlled compression ignition engine and potential strategies to extend the engine operating range: A comprehensive review

open access: yesEnergy Conversion and Management: X, 2022
The objective of this study is to explore various strategies i.e. reactivity stratification, thermal stratification, injection timing, and exhaust gas recirculation as key factors for prolonging the PCCI/RCCI/DDFS engine operational spectrum and ...

Coherent Stokes Raman Scattering for Simultaneous Measurement of CO2 and CH4 Temperatures

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
A three‐beam hybrid fs/ps CSRS method is employed to excite the rovibrational transitions in the Fermi‐dyad of CO2$$ {}_2 $$ and the v2$$ {v}_2 $$ mode of CH4$$ {}_4 $$. Time‐domain spectroscopic models are developed to extract the fuel and flame temperature profiles from experimental CH4$$ {}_4 $$ and CO2$$ {}_2 $$ spectra in a diffusion flame ...

Development of novel laser diagnostic techniques for the quantitative study of premixed flames

open access: yes, 2010
The main topic of this thesis concerns the development and application of laser diagnostic techniques for accurate temperature measurements and for the determination of flamefront properties in premixed flames that can serve as input data for ...
