Abstract: An experimental study of a bottom-burning oil shale retort is described. It is shown that for a constant oxidizer flow the combustion front moves at a uniform velocity through the bed. This ...

Abstract: The heat transfer to a single cylindrical sample of oil shale in a staggered tube bundle was studied both numerically and experimentally in order to evaluate the thermal and chemical processes ...

Abstract: A boundary integral analysis of the creeping motion of a long inviscid bubble in a liquid filled tube is presented. The effects of interfacial surface tension are included in the stress balance ...

Abstract: A finite element solution to the steady-state problem of an inviscid bubble flowing at low Reynolds number in a cylindrical tube occupied by a second viscous phase was obtained. Interfacial ...
