Journal ArticleDOI
Cool flame partial oxidation and its role in combustion and reforming of fuels for fuel cell systems
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the most recent and relevant investigations on the auto-oxidation of fuel oils and their reforming into hydrogen-rich gas that could serve as a feed for fuel cells and combustion systems is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymer heat exchanger design for condensing boiler applications
TL;DR: In this article, a thermally conductive polymer heat exchanger for a condensing boiler application was evaluated and shown to have good overall heat transfer performance with a polymer composite thermal conductivity of 2.5 W/m⋅K.
Journal ArticleDOI
The thermo-mechanical response of PP nanocomposites at high graphene loading
Kai Yang,Maya K. Endoh,Rebecca Trojanowski,Radha Perumal Ramasamy,Molly M. Gentleman,Thomas Butcher,Miriam Rafailovich +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have successfully fabricated polypropylene/graphene nanoplatelets (PP/GNPs), nanocomposites that are thermally conductive, processable, and flame resistant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of the falling ball viscometer to obtain flow curves for inelastic, non-newtonian fluids
Thomas Butcher,Thomas F. Irvine +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the falling ball viscometer to determine the flow curve of non-Newtonian fluids with respect to a sphere moving along the axis of a cylinder and ratios of cylinder to sphere diameter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cold Flow Behavior of Biodiesels Derived from Biomass Sources
C. R. Krishna,Kaitlin Thomassen,Christopher Brown,Thomas Butcher,Mouzhgun Anjom,Devinder Mahajan +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on quantitative measurements of cloud points of blends of biodiesel made from different sources, and a correlation of these measurements with the saturated components was developed and was shown to correlate data reported in the literature.
