The ignition and combustion of mixtures of a gaseous hydrocarbon fuel in air when fluidising a bed of sand

AN Hayhurst - Combustion and Flame, 2022 - Elsevier
Previous work has been examined here to arrive at a proper criterion for when a mixture of a
hydrocarbon gas and air ignites, when it is used to fluidise a bed of eg. silica sand. It was …

Study of influence of combustion on Darcy–Bénard convection with inherent local thermal non-equilibrium between phases

R Nandal, PG Siddheshwar, D Neela - Transport in Porous Media, 2023 - Springer
This work deals with a Darcy–Bénard convection problem in the presence of combustion
and with local thermal non-equilibrium between the fluid and the solid phases. The effects of …

Modelling of a closed two-dimensional reactor bounded by a wavy wall

NC Roy - Combustion Theory and Modelling, 2018 - Taylor & Francis
In this paper, we propose a model for a two-dimensional closed reactor bounded by a wavy
wall. The left, right and top walls of the reactor are assumed to be flat surfaces while the …
