A novel mechanism for the carbothermal reduction of Ilmenite is proposed and validated with the help of a comprehensive mathematical model. A time-dependent isothermal pellet-grain model is used to simulate the kinetic behaviour of a spherical pellet of ilmenite (FeTiO3) in CO/CO2 ... Read More
In order to qualify experiments for in-vessel irradiation at the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, safety assessments need to be completed and documented to ensure adequate target cooling and structural integrity. Previously, finite element analysis ... Read More
Steam Generator Test Facility (SGTF) is set up in IGCAR to optimize the design of Steam Generators (SG) for Fast Breeder Reactors. In the SG of SGTF heat exchange takes place from sodium which enters at 525 ºC and leaves at 355 ºC temperature to the water/steam which enters at 235 ºC and ... Read More
Recently, due to the dynamically increasing complexity of modern systems, a strong necessity appears for more systematic approaches to high quality control and process monitoring. Requirements imposed by process control in the area of spatio-temporal physical systems also called ... Read More
Outline of presentation: In electromagnetic technology applications the finite element method is very well suited for a wide range of problem types For many cases, in particular when inhomogeneous materials having complex properties are involved as well as when multiphysics couplings ... Read More
A pulsed Eddy Current (EC) probe, using the transient response to a stepped voltage is being developed for in-reactor inspection of CANDU® fuel channels. Pulsed EC has the advantage of generating a spectrum of discrete frequencies, allowing the simultaneous collection of data from a ... Read More
本文介绍利用COMSOL传热模块对激光闪射法(Laser Flash Method)测量具有环形结构的碳化硅复合包壳的瞬态传热过程,进而获得对标准激光闪射法估算热扩散率/热导率的几何修正系数和温度修正系数。 碳化硅复合包壳由多层的单质SiC陶瓷基体、SiC纤维编织层组成。碳化硅复合包壳在高温蒸汽中抗氧化性远远优于锆合金,因此被视为未来核电站燃料棒包壳的理想解决方案。为了开展碳化硅复合包壳的性能分析,需要使用激光闪射法获得其在500K~1800K温度范围的热扩散率。问题在于,激光闪射法标准(ASTM E1461-13)规定的样品形状为薄圆片 ... Read More
Even though sonochemical reactors have been studied extensively for decades, there is limited data on their characterization when the volume of the sample is fixed. The Acoustics Module and COMSOL Multiphysics® software are used to resolve the pressure field. The validated numerical ... Read More
Introduction Among the advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from air, photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) is considered a very promising technology [1,2]. PCO can achieve mineralization of harmful VOCs to CO2 and H2O using only UV light [3]. A ... Read More
Solvent extraction and evaporation is a widely used unit operation in the manufacturing of micro and nano-particles. Due to the weak bond of the API to the protein, the product is highly sensitive to temperature, mechanical mixing and extraction/evaporation rate. A slow extraction ... Read More
