605 Lessons learned from transient analysis of combustion equipment in the process industriesDuring gas flare operation, hydrocarbon gas is fed through a flare stack and ignited by a pilot. During the ignition process, flares generally produce significant amounts of smoke (see Figure 1) since enough mixing energy is not available to entrain surrounding air to completely burn the flare gas. ...

611 Los Alamos environmental activities/oil shale effluents1985-07oil shale effluents; oil shale resource; Los Alamos; health and environmental issuesComplex health and environmental issues will affect both the extent and rate of development of the nation's oil shale resource. Among these issues are concerns about land disruption, air and water contamination, waste disposal, and health and environmental problems associated with the refining and u...
612 Low-temperature oil shale and tar sand extraction process1978-12-19low-temperature oil shale; low-temperature tar sand; extraction process; kerogen materials; crushed oil-shale; dekerosing; kerogen removalFertilizers and kerogen materials are extracted from crushed oil shale utilizing a low temperature dekerosing (kerogen removal) solvent phase followed by a second fertilizer extraction phase using water as solvent. Process control factors are effective in producing delamination of the crushed oil sh...
613 Mass and heat transfer in crushed oil shale1993-07-30mass and heat transfer; crushed oil shale; packed bedsPast studies of heat and mass transfer in packed beds, which have disagreed substantially in their findings, have nearly all been done with beds of regular particles of uniform size, whereas oil-shale retorting involves particles of diverse shapes and widely ranging sizes. We have made 349 runs in w...
614 Mathematical modeling of modified in situ and aboveground oil shale retorting1981-01mathematical modeling; modified in situ; aboveground oil shale retorting; oil shaleA one-dimensional mathematical model has been developed for simulating the chemicophysical processes involved in the vertical retorting of a rubblized bed of oil shale. Included in the present model are those processes believed to have the most important effects in either the hot-gas retorting mode ...

616 Measures of agreement between computation and experiment: Validation metrics2005-08measures of agreement; computation and experiment; validation metrics; computational modeling; engineering design; performance estimation; safety assessmentWith the increasing role of computational modeling in engineering design, performance estimation, and safety assessment, improved methods are needed for comparing computational results and experimental measurements. Traditional methods of graphically comparing computational and experimental results,...
617 Mechanism of low-temperature water evolution from Green River Formation oil shale1989-04low-temperature water evolution; Green River Formation; oil shale; Mahogany ZoneThe water evolved from Green River Formation oil shale (Mahogany Zone) at temperatures between 150 and 400°C as heated at the rate of 4°C/min results from analcime dehydration, and its rate of evolution is affected by the kinetics of dehydration, the transport of water inside and outside oil shale...
618 Median residence and dispersion times for fluidization of crushed oil shale1983-03-24median residence and dispersion; fluidization of crushed oil shale; crushed oil shaleMedian residence times and dispersions for crushed oil shale flowing downward through a fluidized bed were measured as a function of particle size, nominal residence time, and fluidizing gas velocity. For fluidized beds containing narrow particle-size distribution, it was found that median residence...
