Sensitivity Analysis for the Resistance on the Performance of a Pressure Vessel for Water Hammer Protection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Pressure vessels can greatly protect a water supply pipeline system from water hammer damages. In order to improve the performance of a pressure vessel, a strainer is proposed to compensate the resistance of the connecting ...
Numerical Simulation and Process Optimization of H2 Production from Dimethyl Ether Steam Reforming
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A numerical study was conducted to optimize the process of hydrogen production from dimethyl ether (DME) steam reforming. The reforming system was composed of a DME steam reforming reactor, a high-temperature water–gas ...
Effects of Cooling System Boundary Conditions on the Performance of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell: A Comprehensive Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We developed a three-dimensional multiphysics numerical model of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with a cathode mesh structure to investigate how coolant flowrate and temperature impact its performance. After ...
A Finite-Element-Based Study of the Load Distribution of a Heavily Loaded Spur Gear System With Effects of Transmission Shafts and Gear Blanks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Spur gears were typically analyzed in the past using two-dimensional (2-D) Finite Element (FE) models. This is not adequate in many cases. A three-dimensional (3-D) FE model of a spur gear ...
