Abstract: The combustion process of ventilation air methane (VAM) with air in a tangential coal-fired boiler was investigated by the component transport model. The influence of VAM with different volume fractions of methane (CH4) ...

Abstract: Abstract. Large membrane diffraction space telescopes offer significant advantages for deep-space observation owing to their lightweight construction, high resolution, and cost-effective deployment. However, the dense ...

Abstract: Many investigators have noted strong biennial atmospheric and oceanic variability, phase-locked to the calendar year, over the equatorial Indian and Pacific Oceans. A simple air?sea interaction theory suggests that biennial ...

Abstract: A thermohydrodynamic lubrication model of turbulent cavitating flow for high-speed spiral groove thrust bearing was developed considering the effects of cavitation, turbulence, inertia, breakage, and coalescence of bubbles. ...

Abstract: One of the primary challenges in electrocatalysis for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) lies in the development of highly efficient catalysts suitable in acidic environments. Tungsten carbide-based materials have long ...

Abstract: Sodium-cooled Fast Reactors (SFR) are one of the advanced nuclear reactor concepts to be commercially applied for electricity production. The benefits of SFR are well-known and include: the possibility of a closed fuel ...

Abstract: AbstractTo address the damping limitations of conventional damped outrigger (CDO) systems in tall buildings and reduce the damping force demand of viscous damper installed at the outrigger end, a novel negative stiffness ...
