TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical model is used to investigate the feasibility of operating Newcastle University's FPE prototype using a two- or four-stroke thermodynamic cycle, where the linear generator must be used as both a motor and a generator resulting in a more irregular piston motion compared to corresponding operating in a 2-stroke cycle.

TL;DR: In this article, a single-particle model has been developed to simulate the drying of granular media in superheated steam, and the validated model is then used to investigate, parametrically, the effects of system variables on the drying behavior of coal in steam.
