  1. 1. Heat-transfer Enhancement for Slurries from Biogas Plants− Properties, processes, and thermal systems

    Author : Jingjing Chen; Xiaoyan Ji; Bona Lu; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; heat-transfer enhancement; slurry; rheological properties; computational fluid dynamics; twisted tubes; biogas production; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract :  Biomethane production from renewable residues with anaerobic digestion gains increasing attention as a crucial alternative to petroleum fuels. It has been vigorously developed, but the large amounts of subsidy from the government indicate that the process efficiency needs to be further improved. READ MORE

  2. 2. Rheological modeling of particle flows in high shear granulation

    Author : Mohammad Khalilitehrani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; continuum modeling; rheology; disc impeller; high shear granulation;

    Abstract : High shear granulation is an important process in a wide variety of applications, more specifically in pharmaceutical industries as a basic step in the tableting process. The process includes two major steps: dry high shear granulation and wet high shear granulation. It aims at producing granules with a specific size and material composition. READ MORE

  3. 3. Fibre orientation, rheological behaviour and simulation of the compression moulding process for composite materials

    Author : C. Fredrik Vahlund; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Compression moulding is a common manufacturing process for composite materials. In order to better predict the processing and performance of components, simulation tools are becoming more important. In this thesis the behaviour of the compression moulding raw material has been studied to provide a platform for better simulations. READ MORE

  4. 4. Numerical Studies of Mixing in Pipes and Static Mixers

    Author : Mårten Regner; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulent mixing; Secondary flow; Viscosity ratio; Computational fluid dynamics; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; Rate of striation thinning; Static mixer; Laminar mixing;

    Abstract : The objective of the present work was to investigate the mixing process in static mixers under laminar flow conditions, and in pipes during the displacement of dissimilar liquids. A numerical scheme and a method of characterizing static mixers were developed. READ MORE

  5. 5. Capillarity and wetting of non-Newtonian droplets

    Author : Yuli Wang; Gustav Amberg; Daniel Bonn; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dynamic wetting; contact line; diffusive interface; viscoelasticity; non-Newtonian; microfluidics; droplet impact; droplet spreading; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Abstract : Capillarity and dynamic wetting of non-Newtonian fluids are important in many natural and industrial processes, examples cover from a daily phenomenon as splashing of a cup of yogurt to advanced technologies such as additive manufacturing. The applicable non-Newtonian fluids are usually viscoelastic compounds of polymers and solvents. READ MORE
