Sutherland, James Clayton | A comparison of various models in predicting ignition delay in single-particle coal combustion | In this paper, individual coal particle combustion under laminar conditions is simulated using models with various levels of complexity for the particle and gas phase chemical kinetics. The mass, momentum and energy governing equations are fully coupled between the particle and the gas phase. In the... | | 2014-01-01 |

Pershing, David W. | Design and construction of a rotary kiln simulator for use in studying the incineration of hazardous waste | Rotary kilns have been used extensively in the cement industry to calcine limestone. In the past few years, the technology has been viewed as a possible option for the incineration of hazardous waste materials, especially for the disposal of solid wastes and the cleanup of contaminated soils and tra... | Rotary kilns; Hazardous waste; Waste burning | 1989-08 |

Ring, Terry Arthur; Eddings, Eric G.; Sarofim, Adel F. | Determination of soot refractive index as a function of height in an inverse diffusion flame | With the scope of combustion diagnostics increasing, it is becoming ever more important for some of the more basic physical properties of soot to be addressed. Soot refractive index values were obtained as a function of height in a benzene inverse diffusion flame (IDF). The IDF was chosen for ease i... | Inverse diffusion flame | 2007 |

Pershing, David W. | Biomass combustion: relationship between pollutant formation and fuel composition | A 65-kW refractory-walled reactor was used to study biomass combustion under conditions typical of the suspension-burning phase in a spreader-stoker-fired boiler. Isothermal combustion data and nitric oxide (NO) emission rates were obtained as a function of temperature, local oxygen concentration, ... | Combustion; Emissions; Energy; Environmental control; Fuels; Pyrolysis; Biomass fuel; Particulates | 1989 |

Pershing, David W. | Bench and pilot scale process evaluation of reburning for in-furnace NOx reduction | This paper describes a combined experimental and theoretical study which was undertaken to quantify the impact of fuel and process parameters on reburning effectiveness and provide the scaling information required for commercial application of reburning under highly varied industrial conditions. Ini... | Reburning; Nitrogen oxides reduction; Staged fuel injection | 1986 |

Pershing, David W. | Mechanisms of NOx formation and control: alternative and petroleum-derived liquid fuels | Petroleum-, coal- and shale-derived liquid fuels were burned in a downfired tunnel furnace to assess the impact of fuel properties on the formation and control of NOx emissions. A nitrogen-free oxidant mixture (Ar, C02 , 02) was used to isolate fuel NOx formation. Under excess air conditions fuel N... | Exhaust emissions; Alternative fuels; Petroleum-derived liquid fuels | 1981 |

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 |

McLennan, John | Final Report Geothermal Battery Energy Storage | Solar and wind power are being introduced into electric grids to supplement and replace conventional electricity production. The deployment of utility-scale storage has not kept pace to overcome the intermittent nature of solar and to a lesser extent wind. Large-scale energy storage is cur... | | 2020-06 |

Ring, Terry Arthur | Growth kinetics of hexagonal sub-micrometric β-tricalcium phosphate particles in ethylene glycol | Recently, uniform, non-agglomerated, hexagonal b-tricalcium phosphate (b-TCP) platelets (diameter 400-1700 nm, h 100-200 nm) were obtained at fairly moderate temperatures (90-170 C) by precipitation in ethylene glycol. Unfortunately, the platelet aspect ratios (diameter/thickness) obtained in the ... | | 2014-01-01 |

Sarofim, Adel F. | Numerical combustion of aviation fuel part I: a cross-model comparison of n-heptane premixed flame | Four different n-heptane mechanisms were used to simulate a fuel rich n-heptane premixed flame and their results were compared with experimental measurements. In addition to discussion of the numerical performance of each mechanism, flux analysis coupled with the atomic distribution technique was us... | Aviation fuel; n-heptane; Premixed flame | 2003 |

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 |
