Prediction of Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow Effects on Entropy Generation in a Monolithic Catalytic Converter Using Large-Eddy Simulation

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
In the present work, heat transfer and fluid flow and their effects on entropy generation in a realistic catalytic converter of a Lada Niva 21214 vehicle are studied using large eddy simulation. At first, the pressure drop over the catalytic converter is

The Exergy Losses Analysis in Adiabatic Combustion Systems including the Exhaust Gas Exergy

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
The entropy generation analysis of adiabatic combustion systems was performed to quantify the exergy losses which are mainly the exergy destroyed during combustion inside the chamber and in the exhaust gases. The purpose of the present work was therefore:

Shock-tube study of the ignition and product formation of fuel-rich CH4/ozone/air and natural gas/ozone/air mixtures at high pressure

open access: yesApplications in Energy and Combustion Science, 2022
The influence of ozone on the ignition delay times and product formation of methane and natural gas was determined in a high-pressure shock tube at fuel-rich conditions (ϕ = 2 and 10), ozone concentrations of 550 ppm, temperatures between 850 and 1700 K ...
