Lighty, Joann | The role of open innovation in development of futuristic technologies for carbon capture in coal-fired power plants: an academic perspective | Coal is an important fossil fuel resource for electricity generation which also contributes to significant CO2 emissions. The process of capturing carbon dioxide for utilization and sequestration is an important area of research in this domain. Academia-industry collaborations are playing a signific... | | 2012-01-01 |

Ring, Terry Arthur | Room temperature co-precipitation synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles in a large pH window with different bases | Magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4) represent the most promising materials in medical applications. To favor high-drug or enzyme loading on the nanoparticles, they are incorporated into mesoporous materials to form a hybrid support with the consequent reduction of magnetization saturation. The direct sy... | | 2013-01-01 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F.; Pugmire, Ronald J. | Selection of surrogates for jet fuels | Abstract: A. detailed characterisation of JP fuels is provided based on literature data for the average of 55 worldwide and 4 US Jet-A fuels. These are complemented by NMR analysis of a JP-8 that provides the fractions of the carbon in the fuel that are present as protonated, bridgehead, and non-sub... | Jet propulsion fuel; Surrogates; Simulations | 2008 |

Sarofim, Adel F. | Simulation of soot formation using particle dynamics with one dimensional nucleation mode | Two soot formation models using particle dynamics with one-dimensional nucleation mode directly coupled with gas phase chemistry are tested on three ethylene and three methane laminar premixed flames. These models demonstrate strength in the prediction of concentration profiles of major combustion p... | Soot formation models; Particle dynamics; One dimensional nucleation mode; Combustion chemistry | 2004 |

Smith, Philip J. | Soot in combustion simulations | Soot is the dominant source of radiative heat transfer from most practical flames. A review is presented of historical, empirical modelling approaches for estimating heat flux from fires and flames. These historical methods have drawn on empiricism to address the role of soot while seeking methods f... | Large eddy simulation; LES; Combustion simulation; Radiative heat transfer; Pool fires | 2005 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Spinti, Jennifer C.; Smith, Philip J. | Soot volume fraction from extinction in JP-8 and heptane pool fires | Total extinction measurements from a multiple beam experiment using a 10mW laser diode are presented and compared to calculate soot volume fraction in heavily sooting pool fires from a 150 mm diameter pan of Jet Propulsion fuel 8 (JP-8) and heptane. Trends in attenuation are critiqued for the t... | Pool fires; Jet propulsion fuel | 2005 |

Veranth, John M.; Pershing, David W.; Sarofim, Adel F. | Sources of unburned carbon in the fly ash produced from low-NOx pulverized coal combustion | The unburned carbon in the fly ash produced from low-NOx pulverized coal combustion is shown to consist of a mixture of soot and coal char. The soot was identified by the presence of chains or aggregates of 10-50-nm-diameter primary particles in electron microscope images of both laboratory sample... | Unburned carbon; Char | 1998 |

Smith, Philip J. | State space sensitivity to a prescribed probability density function shape in coal combustion systems: joint β-PDF versus clipped Gaussian PDF | The turbulent transport of three coal off-gas mixture fractions is coupled to a prescribed joint //-probability- density-function (//-PDF) mixing model. This physical transport and subgrid joint //-PDF mixing model is used to explore the incorporation of coal off-gas compositional disparities betwe... | Off-gas stream; β-PDF; Char oxidation | 2000 |

Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F. | Thermal behavior of a high-energy material immersed in a fire | One of the uncertainties in the calculations of time-to-explosion for containers of high-energy materials immersed in fires is that of the thermal boundary at the container-explosive interface. Understanding this interface is critical in evaluating risks, safety issues and prevention mechanisms. In ... | | 2004 |

Ring, Terry Arthur | Validation of energy moments from the one-dimensional energy dependent neutron diffusion equation, MCNP5 and Attila-7.1.0 with the GODIVA experiment | Normalized neutron energy moments (moments) from the one-dimensional energy dependent neutron diffusion equation (EDNDE), Monte Carlo N Particle 5 version 1.40 (MCNP5) and Attila-7.1.0-beta version (Attila) are validated with the GODIVA experiment (GODIVA). Energy moments 0-5 for all three methods a... | | 2012-01-01 |

Ring, Terry Arthur | Verification of analytic energy moments for the one-dimensional energy dependent neutron diffusion equation with MCNP5 and Attila-7.1.0 | The energy dependent neutron diffusion equation (EDNDE) is converted into a moment equation which is solved analytically for the 1-D problem of a bare sphere of pure 235U. The normalized moments 0-5 generated analytically are compared to normalized energy moments, from Monte Carlo N Particle 5 versi... | | 2012-01-01 |
