TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison between the Euler-Euler Two Fluid Model (TFM) approach and the coupled coarse grain discrete element CFD-DEM numerical model for the simulation of a 1MWth CFB carbonator reactor located at TU Darmstadt (TUD) is investigated, by implementing either the conventional Gidaspow model or the advanced EMMS one.

TL;DR: In this paper, the state-of-the-art TFM approach is applied while the inter-phase drag coefficient is simulated using a new configuration of the sub-grid EMMS drag model.

TL;DR: The AMADEUS project as mentioned in this paper developed a new generation of phase change materials with latent heat in the range of 1000-2000 kWh/m3, an order of magnitude greater than that of typical salt-based PCMs used in concentrated solar power (CSP), along with developing advanced thermal insulation, PCM casing designs, and novel solid-state heat-to-power conversion technologies able to operate at temperatures between 1000 and 2000 °C.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the availability of biomass for energy reasons in the EU, and to evaluate its potential to meet the coal power plant capacity of the main lignite-producer countries, including Germany, Poland and Greece, is presented.

TL;DR: A validated transient computational fluid dynamics model, combining the multiphase volume of fluid method with the enthalpy porosity approach and an adaptive local grid refinement technique is applied in this article.
