Abstract: In this paper, a numerical model of the dimethyl ether (DME) steam reformer was developed. The established numerical model was solved using commercially available software. An experimental platform was set up to validate ...

Abstract: In this paper, a thermodynamic equilibrium analysis coupled with experimentation for the hydrogen production from dimethyl ether is performed by total Gibbs free energy minimization method. Heat requirement from the process ...

Abstract: This paper aims to improve the internal heat distribution and effective thermal management of a proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) while reducing its volume. A novel embedded liquid cooling channel was designed to ...

Abstract: As a clean energy source, hydrogen is one ideal energy carrier and is widely used in the automotive industry. Onboard in situ hydrogen production can effectively solve the problems of difficult hydrogen storage and ...

Abstract: Public project plays an important role in China’s economy, and the agent construction system (ACS) has been widely used in public projects since 2004. As a construction management innovation, the ACS improves the management ...

Abstract: In this paper, granular activated carbon was modified with different concentrations of ferric chloride (

Abstract: An analytical method will be proposed to investigate the bearing mechanism of piles in an anisotropic discontinuous rock mass. Based on the characteristic line method, the discontinuous part of the rock is considered as ...

Abstract: The lower limb exoskeleton can improve mobility and safety during rehabilitation for human. However, most current exoskeleton systems are not capable of providing variable joint stiffness in response to changing external ...
