Abstract Electrification of distillation offers a promising route to reducing scope‐1 emissions from one of the chemical industry's most energy‐intensive unit operations. However, conventional adiabatic columns are dynamically inflexible: Long, energy‐intensive start‐ups make shutdown and restart impractical under variable electricity prices and ...

Good practices in V&V for system thermal hydraulics codes
The chapter deals with Verification and Validation (V & V) in nuclear thermal hydraulics. The content of the chapter constitutes: a) a follow-up of Chapter 13 concerned with motivations and features for current V&V; b) a synthesis of advancements

Abstract Emulsion separation remains a persistent challenge in chemical and process industries due to the metastable nature of dispersed droplets. In gravity separators, the overall separation rate is governed by the formation of a densely packed zone (DPZ) of deforming and coalescing droplets that mediates between the dispersed and continuous phases ...

Stability formula for breakwaters armoured with Accropode
Delft Hydraulics has performed an extensive investigation on the stability of rubble mound revetments and breakwaters under random wave attack. Two stability formulae have been derived which describe the stability of rock slopes as a function of wave ...
