This study details the synthesis of bio-diesel and bio-oil from stone apple seeds ( Aegle marmelos) through transesterification, direct oxygenate additive, and pyrolysis processes. The diesel engine is powered by the resulting stone apple methyl ester bio-diesel/diesel and bio-oil/diesel mixtures. In a test engine rig, the effectiveness and emission uniqueness of test fuel mixes were examined at various engine loads (EL = 3 kg–12 kg) and compression ratios (CR = 16–17.5) while maintaining a steady speed of 1500 r/min. Furthermore, engine performance and emissions for bio-diesel and bio-oil are measured and compared. The oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emission by bio-diesel and bio-oil opus were higher than neat diesel (FD). Also, carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions were measured to be lower. The improvements of BTE by 4.87% and decrement of CO by 18.8%, HC by 13.26% were observed with the trans-esterified bio-diesel/diesel opus compared to diesel at a higher CR and rated load conditions. The engine analysis responses revealed that the FBD blend showed enhanced performance and lower emissions except NOx compared to diesel fuel. Hence, trans-esterified bio-diesel is a greater diesel alternative than FBDE and FBO.","PeriodicalId":20705,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy","volume":"188 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142261554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the pursuit for higher turbine entry temperatures intensifies, it becomes crucial for computational analyses to offer accurate predictions of metal temperatures and heat transfer coefficients on these critical components. This study investigates the impact of key physical factors that characterize the operation of these components on the accuracy of the computational model. In particular, the effects of including the exchange of thermal energy between the fluid and solid domains, as well as modelling the unsteady interaction between the rotor and stator are studied. The research focuses on a fully featured one-and-a-half stage high-pressure turbine of a commercial jet engine, utilizing proprietary software for conducting 3D Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes flow simulations. To model the fluid-solid thermal interaction, steady-state Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) simulations are performed. The CHT results are then compared with experimental data obtained from a thermal paint test, achieving good levels of agreement. Additionally, phase-lag simulations are executed under adiabatic-wall conditions to evaluate the influence of stator-rotor interaction on near-wall gas temperatures. This work shows that, by modelling the periodic unsteadiness at the stator-rotor interface with a phase-lag technique, the maximum near-wall gas temperature prediction is significantly increased, sometimes more than 100K, with respect to the steady-state model one. Findings from this work also suggest that simplified “strip” source terms used to model the presence of film cooling hole rows on the surface of a blade can be used with satisfactory accuracy only for nominal conditions. The mass flows delivered by each source strip should not be linearly scaled based on mainstream quantities for use in different conditions, but they should be recalculated from scratch for the new conditions.","PeriodicalId":20705,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142261555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Air compressors influence the efficiency of fuel cell systems significantly, so it is crucial to improve the energy efficiency of centrifugal compressors. However, there is a lack of centrifugal compressor performance models that can reflect the thermodynamic characteristics of two-stage compression system, which is the main focus of this paper. In this paper, an analytical model of two-stage centrifugal compressor performance considering the thermodynamic characteristics of two-stage compression was first derived and experimentally validated. The single-stage centrifugal compressor model (SSCCM) can be treated as a lumped parameter model of the two-stage centrifugal compressor to predict the compressor performance. Therefore, the SSCCM and the two-stage centrifugal compressor model (TSCCM) were compared. The results show that the TSCCM is more accurate and robust. Furthermore, a novel compressor structure equipped with an intercooler in the inter-stage piping was proposed to improve the energy efficiency of the centrifugal compressor. Based on this novel structure, the TSCCM was modified. Finally, a quantitative analysis was performed to study the effect of an inter-stage intercooler on compressor efficiency. Compared to the original compressor without the inter-stage intercooler, the efficiency improvement by the inter-stage intercooler can be in the range of 3.29–3.97%, with power savings of 0.332–0.635 kW. The study can be used to support engineers and researchers in fast identifying effective solutions in terms of design for the next generation of centrifugal compressors.","PeriodicalId":20705,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142201272","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the experimental data, the finite-element-analysis (FEA) method with the periodic-cell model was validated. The effects of incursion parameters (i.e. incursion depth, incursion rate and sliding velocity) on the contact force, frictional temperature, material loss, and worn geometry of the honeycomb seal during the incursion process were studied. With the predicted worn geometry, the sealing performance degradation in the honeycomb seal was analyzed. The results showed that the proposed periodic-cell model has an excellent accuracy in predicting the wear behavior of honeycomb seal in rubbing events. The contact force between the honeycomb liner and labyrinth fin is pronounced especially at low sliding velocity and high incursion rate conditions, which increases the possibility of wear damage in the rotor part. At low sliding velocity and low incursion rate conditions, the frictional heat transferring to rotor part is increased, which increases the thermal stress near the contact region of the rotor part. As the clearance gap of honeycomb seal increases from 0.6 mm to 0.9 mm in the rubbing event, the leakage rate is increased by about 12%, and the carry-over effects downstream of the worn cells are increased.","PeriodicalId":20705,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142201273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three-dimensional gas phase simulations using the Transition 𝑘kl-𝜔 and Finite Rate/Eddy Dissipation models were validated against freeboard temperatures and emissions (CO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> and O<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>) measured on the same set-up. Results show that secondary air at Q<jats:sub>s</jats:sub>/Q<jats:sub>t</jats:sub> ≥0.25 induces two recirculation zones, upstream and downstream of its injection point with maximum freeboard temperatures generally observed around these recirculation zones, if Q<jats:sub>s</jats:sub>/Q<jats:sub>t</jats:sub> drops to 0.12-0.18 only an upstream recirculation zone is observed until it diminishes by Q<jats:sub>s</jats:sub>/Q<jats:sub>t</jats:sub> = 0.06.

The residual carbon in ash has a potential effect on the melting characteristics of ash, while there is a lack of specific research on the effects of residual carbon on ash fusion characteristics of high-alkali coals. In the present study, synthetic ash was blended with residual carbon to study the impacts of residual carbon content, graphitization level of the carbon, and atmospheric condition on ash fusion characteristics. Thermogravimetric analyzers and ash melting point testers were used to study the thermogravimetric behavior of ash and the characteristic temperatures of ash fusion, and then analyze the changes in the mineral composition and micromorphology of slag using X-ray diffractometers and scanning electron microscopy. The experimental results reveal that the change in residual char content exerts a minor influence on the type of crystalline minerals within the ash, while it affects the relative content of various minerals. The softening temperature of the ash blended with activated carbon and graphite are 1234°C and 1242°C, respectively. The blending of activated carbon greatly promotes the generation of gehlenite (Ca2Al2SiO7, 1593°C) and inhibits the generation of merwinite (Ca3MgSi2O8, 1550°C), increasing the ash melting temperature. The ash fusion characteristic temperatures of the pure synthetic ash decrease with the enhancement of the reductive atmosphere. However, the ash fusion characteristic temperatures of the ash blended with carbon in strong reducing atmosphere are increased compared to those in weak reducing atmosphere because part of the carbon acts as a skeleton or reacts to form a carbon-silicon compound. The present study can offer improved knowledge to provide fundamental support for the combustion and utilization of high-alkali Zhundong coal under deep oxygen-staged conditions.","PeriodicalId":20705,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142201206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The shroud of the conventional volute-free centrifugal fans has an axisymmetric geometry, that is, the height of the fan outlet is constant over the whole circumference. Considering the non-uniform flow in the blade passages, the shroud of a wavy geometry might help in improving the static pressure rise and efficiency of the fans at a large flow rate condition. In this work, we performed a numerical investigation on the internal flow of a volute-free centrifugal fan with a wavy shroud. The effect of the geometry of the wavy shroud, as quantified by the maximum height and profile, on the aerodynamic performance of the fan is explored, and the flow physics leading to the performance improvement are demonstrated through a detailed analysis of the patterns of the internal flow. The numerical results showed that compared with the baseline fan with an axisymmetric shroud, the fan with a wavy shroud could substantially improve the static pressure rise and efficiency at the large flow rate. The wavy shroud regulates the near-wall flow especially at the fan outlet; the fluctuation of the radial velocity, secondary flow, and reversed flow is greatly weakened, producing a uniform flow at the fan outlet. The fluctuation of the static pressure in the blade passages and on the shroud side of the fan outlet greatly decreases. Further analysis of the acoustic power level field indicates that the wavy shroud increases the acoustic power at the fan inlet but does not have a notable influence on that near the outlet.","PeriodicalId":20705,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141969294","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Solar-driven ejection-compression refrigeration system is promising for reducing electricity consumption and carbon emissions. However, existing solar ejection-compression refrigeration systems suffer from drawbacks of low heat utilization efficiency, oversized solar collectors, and thermal leakage due to large temperature differences of storage devices. Addressing these challenges, this study proposes and investigates a new solar-assisted ejector-compressor hybrid refrigeration system with subcooling storage coupled at intermediate temperatures. The system model is established, and the ejector model is experimentally validated. Through system modelling, an energetic and exergetic performance comparative analyses are conducted. The results indicate that the COP of the proposed system is 9.7% higher than that of traditional system combinations, producing the same cooling capacity with the same generating heat. Moreover, considering the stored cooling energy can be fully converted to cooling energy at evaporating temperatures, the COP<jats:sub>h</jats:sub> of the new system reaches 8.29, 24.5% higher than traditional systems. The cooling storage at 15°C with 0.325 ejector entrainment ratio suggests a reduction of approximately two-thirds in energy storage, lower temperature differences, and reduced thermal leakage, leading to decreased space and economic costs and improved energy performance. Additionally, as the COP<jats:sub>h</jats:sub>, COP<jats:sub>gh</jats:sub>, and η<jats:sub>ex</jats:sub> of MCS mode consistently outperform those of ZCS and HCS modes, the MCS mode is prioritized in system operation. This study underscores that the new system offers superior overall energy efficiency and requires smaller storage devices compared to traditional systems, revealing its promising practical applications.","PeriodicalId":20705,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141945126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chord length, maximum camber, maximum camber position, blade thickness, and airfoil stagger angle are considered as an optimization parameter of axial fan. The static pressure efficiency and static pressure of axial fan are regarded as the optimization objectives. An optimization calculation of an axial fan blade is carried out based on the combination of artificial neural network and genetic algorithm. The objective aim of optimization is to improve the static pressure efficiency, the static pressure of axial fan and to reduce the flow loss of axial fan. Numerical results of axial fan demonstrate that the pressure distribution gradient and turbulent kinetic energy contour maps of the optimized axial fan are effectively suppressed within the impeller region compared with that of original axial fan. Furthermore, the internal flow stability of the optimized axial fan also is significantly improved by studying the pressure fluctuation and the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of pressure fluctuation. Experimental results of axial fan aerodynamic performance further demonstrate that the static pressure of the optimized axial fan rises as much as 90.93 Pa and the improved static pressure efficiency is effectively improved as much as 7.43% at the design flow rates compared with that of the original axial fan.
