Models for hydrolysis, fermentation and concentration process, production and utilization of biogas as well as lignin gasification are developed to calculate the heat demand of ethanol production process and the amounts of heat and power generated from res ...
A new modelling platform, called mu ic has been developed to model the microstructural evolution of hydrating cement paste. The platform uses the vector approach and can be used for modelling particulate reactions including the hydration of many different ...
Increasing economic development, and growing population, generated during the last decades a very important growth of cities. Urban regions include nowadays more than half of the global population and, by 2030, this proportion is forecasted to increase to ...
Single pan thermal analyses (SPTA) have been performed on Cu-14.5 wt.% Sn, Cu-21.3 wt.% Sri and Cu-26.8 wt.% Sit peritectic alloys. For this purpose, a SPTA assembly has been built and calibrated. As the latent heat is a function of temperature and composi ...
Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) of the turbulent compressible ow within heated curved ducts of square cross section are presented. The aim here is to predict the three- dimensional structures which develop inside cooling channels of rocket engines and study t ...
The global objective of this thesis was to understand how the starting components of brushite cements influence the cement properties relevant for its use in vertebroplasty. Therefore, this work focussed on the following cement properties : mechanical stre ...
Calorimetry has shown real potential at bench-scale for chem. and biochem. processes. The aim of this work was therefore to scale-up the system by adaptation of a std. com. available 300-L pilot-scale bioreactor. To achieve this, all heat flows entering or ...
In this work, a parametric study is done with computational methods for groundwater flow and heat transport in order to describe the dominant physical phenomena in an Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES). Optimum operating conditions and geological parame ...
Four models taken from the literature, which permit calcn. of heats of combustion from elemental anal., are evaluated from a theor. point of view. In order to obtain exptl. values of heat of combustion with a higher degree of accuracy than that in the lite ...
A modified bench scale calorimeter has been employed to det. the heat generated by various microbial strains growing on a range of different substrates, covering degrees of redn. from 3 to 6.13. The results are analyzed and interpreted in the light of coup ...
