This study addresses the development of a compact reactor for oxidative steam-reforming of methanol (OSRM) to produce hydrogen in autothermal mode for fuel cells. The string reactor uses catalytically active brass wires with a diameter of 500 mu m placed i ...
A high pressure reactor calorimeter was developed to study chem. reactions in supercrit. fluids. Non-dimensional anal. of the heat transfer mechanism in the calorimeter verifies the application of the Nusselt correlation in scCO2. The reactor's cover and f ...
This thesis deals with the combined utilisation of a reaction calorimeter, the RC1® commercialised by Mettler Toledo and equipped with a 2 L glass reactor, and the heat transfer dynamics modelling of industrial reactors. By doing so, the temperature evolut ...
Fuel rods with burnup values beyond 50GWd/t are characterised by relatively large amounts of fission products and a high abundance of major and minor actinides. Of particular interest is the change in the reactivity of the fuel as a function of burnup and ...
For many years, calorimetry has been recognized as a powerful and universal tool for monitoring chem. and biol. processes. A lab.-scale reaction calorimeter (RC1, Mettler-Toledo), initially developed for chem. reaction studies with a sensitivity of 100-150 ...
An effective way to reduce the large quantities of Pu currently accumulated worldwide would be to use uranium-free fuel in light water reactors (LWRs) so that no new Pu is produced. Such a possibility could be provided by an LWR fuel consisting of Pu in a ...
Experimental pressure drop results on boiling water flow through three helical coils of tube inner diameter of 4.03 mm and 4.98 mm and coil diameter to tube diameter ratio of 26.1, 64.1 and 93.3 are presented. Both subcooled and saturated flow boiling are ...
Intube flow boiling experiments for refrigerant R-134a mixed with a lubricating oil are reported. The tests were run at a nominal inlet pressure of 3.4 bar over a wide range of vapor qualities at mass velocities of 100, 200 and 300 kg/m2s (73500, 147000 an ...
The aim of this work is to develop a microstructured reactor based on filamentous catalysts for the Oxidative Steam-Reforming of Methanol (OSRM), to produce hydrogen as feed for a fuel cell, in an autothermal way. Hydrogen is produced by the methanol Steam ...
