TL;DR: Conventional chemical-based soaking and stirring methods are compared here to ultrasonic methods of de-sulfurization, which have the main advantages of ultrasonic de-Sulfurized over conventional methods, the mechanism involved in ultrasonicDe-solfurization and the difference between aqueous-based and solvent-based (2N HNO(3), 3-volume percentage H(2)O(2)) de-magnifying methods are investigated experimentally.

TL;DR: In this paper, a flow field design based on the improvement of the local cross-flow conditions in a split serpentine flow field is proposed, which offers the quadruple advantage of uniform reactant distribution over the entire cell active area, low overall pressure drop, and effective liquid water evacuation in the U-bends.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of tube diameter on the mechanism of flooding in vertical gas-liquid countercurrent annular flow was investigated. But the results indicated that the mechanism was qualitatively different in the small and the large diameter test sections.
56 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, a sensitivity analysis is performed using the CFD code CFX of AEA Technology, on the likely effect of ash content on the char reactivity, oxygen diffusion rate for char combustion and on the radiative heat transfer parameters.

TL;DR: Oxy-coal combustion has generated significant interest since it was proposed as a carbon capture technology for newly built and retrofitted coal-fired power plants, and numerical models for sub-processes are also used to examine the differences between combustion in an oxidizing stream diluted by nitrogen and carbon dioxide as mentioned in this paper.
866 citations
TL;DR: The role of ammonia in future energy infrastructure is discussed in this article, where the authors focus on the catalytic decomposition of ammonia as a key step and highlight other aspects such as catalytic removal of ammonia from gasification product gas or direct ammonia fuel cells.
Abstract: The possible role of ammonia in a future energy infrastructure is discussed. The review is focused on the catalytic decomposition of ammonia as a key step. Other aspects, such as the catalytic removal of ammonia from gasification product gas or direct ammonia fuel cells, are highlighted as well. The more general question of the integration of ammonia in an infrastructure is also covered.
495 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, the challenges and the developments of direct ethanol fuel cells at present are addressed and the applications of DEFC are presented, as well as the challenges that need to be addressed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a literature review on heat transfer and flow characteristics of single-phase and two-phase flow in curved tubes is presented, where three main categories of curved tubes; helically coiled tubes, spirally coiling tubes, and other coiled tube, are described.
Abstract: The performance of heat exchangers can be improved to perform a certain heat-transfer duty by heat transfer enhancement techniques. In general, these techniques can be divided into two groups: active and passive techniques. The active techniques require external forces, e.g. electric field, acoustic or surface vibration, etc. The passive techniques require fluid additives or special surface geometries. Curved tubes have been used as one of the passive heat transfer enhancement techniques and are the most widely used tubes in several heat transfer applications. This article provides a literature review on heat transfer and flow characteristics of single-phase and two-phase flow in curved tubes. Three main categories of curved tubes; helically coiled tubes, spirally coiled tubes, and other coiled tubes, are described. A review of published relevant correlations of single-phase heat transfer coefficients and single-phase, two-phase friction factors are presented.
