Book Microscale Combustion and Power Generation

Download or read book Microscale Combustion and Power Generation written by Christopher Cadou and published by Momentum Press. This book was released on 2014-12-26 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances in microfabrication technologies have enabled the development of entirely new classes of small-scale devices with applications in fields ranging from biomedicine, to wireless communication and computing, to reconnaissance, and to augmentation of human function. In many cases, however, what these devices can actually accomplish is limited by the low energy density of their energy storage and conversion systems. This breakthrough book brings together in one place the information necessary to develop the high energy density combustion-based power sources that will enable many of these devices to realize their full potential. Engineers and scientists working in energy-related fields will find: • An overview of the fundamental physics and phenomena of microscale combustion; • Presentations of the latest modeling and simulation techniques for gasphase and catalytic micro-reactors; • The latest results from experiments in small-scale liquid film, microtube, and porous combustors, micro-thrusters, and micro heat engines; • An assessment of the additional research necessary to develop compact and high energy density energy conversion systems that are truly practical.

Book A Computational Study of the Ignition of Premixed Methane and Oxygen Via a Hot Stream

Download or read book A Computational Study of the Ignition of Premixed Methane and Oxygen Via a Hot Stream written by Matthew Charles Deans and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With methane being a fuel to be utilized in the future of space exploration, alternative ignition systems need to be developed. This study computationally focuses on the ignition of methane and oxygen mixtures in a counterflow configuration by a heated stream. Most combustion systems have non-uniform and/or non-homogenous flow, species, and temperature fields. This configuration allows for the study of both chemical kinetics as well as convective-diffusive transport effects. The effects of strain rate, pressure, and equivalence ratio on ignition are examined. A catalytic simulation code is used to generate ranges of combustion product composition and temperature when using a catalytic reactor for the hot stream. The vitiation of these into the hot stream is conducted to determine their influence on ignition. Tests with the individual components in a range up to the maximum possible achievable level will be carried out to determine the separate effects. A combined case simulating the potential of an actual catalytic igniter is also run to confirm the feasibility of such a technology and the combined effects of the different species.

Book Sensing and Monitoring Technologies for Mines and Hazardous Areas

Download or read book Sensing and Monitoring Technologies for Mines and Hazardous Areas written by Swadesh Chaulya and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-06-10 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sensing and Monitoring Technologies for Mines and Hazardous Areas: Monitoring and Prediction Technologies presents the fundamentals of mining related geotechnical risk and how the latest advances in sensing and data communication can be used both to prevent accidents and provide early warnings. Opencast mining operations involve huge quantities of overburden removal, dumping, and backfilling in excavated areas. Substantial increases in the rate of accumulation of waste dumps in recent years has resulted in greater height of dumps and also has given rise to the danger of dump failures as steeper open pit slopes are prone to failure. These failures lead to loss of valuable human lives and damage to mining machinery. This book presents the most recent advances in gas sensors, methane detectors, and power cut-off systems. It also introduces monitoring of the gas strata and environment, and an overview of the use of Internet of Things and cloud computing for mining sensing and surveillance purposes. Targeted at geotechnical and mining engineers, this volume covers the latest findings and technology to prevent mining accidents and mitigate the inherent risk of the activity. - Presents complete details of a real-time slope stability monitoring system using wireless sensor networking and prediction technique based on multivariate statistical analysis of various parameters and analytical hierarchy process methods - Discusses innovative ideas and new concepts of sensing technologies, mine transport surveillance, digital mining, and cloud computing to improve safety and productivity in mining industry - Includes slope stability prediction software, downloadable through a companion website, which can be used for monitoring, analyzing, and storing different sensors and providing audio-visual, SMS, and email alerts - Covers the latest findings and technology to prevent mining accidents and mitigate the inherent risk
