Modeling of energy crops gasification based on experimental data
Journal Title: Architecture Civil Engineering Environment - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
The paper presents a mathematical model of the selected energy crops gasification. Firstly, the experimental study of the biomass gasification process using fixed-bed reactor was conducted. The highest calorific value was obtained from the gasi- fication of Miscanthus x giganteus (3.84 MJ/m3n). Based on the experimental results, a model of the gasifier built in Aspen Plus was verified. The developed mathematical model of the gasification system properly reflects the processes occurring in the analyzed gasifier. The relative differences of the lower heating values from the model and experiment did not exceed 1%.

Optimization of window size design for detached house using TRNSYS simulations and genetic algorithm
Heat gains from the sun affect the heat balance of building by reducing the energy demand at certain periods of the year and increasing it at others. Windows, especially the type of glazing, are a determining factor in t...
Validation of the fib 2010 and RILEM B4 models for predicting creep in concrete
Creep strain, a requirement of the concrete design process, is a complex phenomenon that has proven difficult to model. Although laboratory tests may be undertaken to determine the creep, these are generally expensive an...
Investigations into the resistance of sin girders reinforced with tensioned diagonal braces
The study presents the means of increasing resistance of girders with corrugated web by enhancing their shear resistance due to the application of diagonal braces subjected to advantageous tension. Diagonal braces were u...
Organizing of historical and inactive urban cemeteries to become tourist attractions (case study: Zahir-od-dowleh cemetery in Tehran)
