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...
30 In-situ production of Utah oil sands bitumen2007-11in situ production; Utah oil sands; Utah reservoirs; in situ bitumen production; SAGD; case studiesIn-situ production of oil-sand bitumen offers an excellent alternative to the ex situ processes that are based on strip-mining and surface extraction.
