29 Efficient parallelization of RMCRT for large scale LES combustion simulations2011-06monte carlo; RMCRT; parallelization; large scale LES combustion; combustion simulations; radiationAt the high temperatures inherent to combustion systems, radiation is the dominant mode of heat transfer. An accurate simulation of a combustor therefore requires precise treatment of radiative heat transfer. This is accomplished by calculating the radiative-flux divergence at each cell of the discr...

33 Environmental impact of in-situ oil shale processing2007-10in situ processing of oil shale; in situ processing; oil shale; production of oil from kerogen; oil productionThe in situ processing of oil shale for the production of oil from the kerogen involves heating the shale slowly to moderate temperatures of between 3000 C and 4000 C. At this temperature, gaseous products that evolve from the oil shale are condensed and recovered. The pathways of creation of oil fr...
