Sensible or hybrid sensible-latent thermal energy storage systems are becoming mature
systems and are the most common choice in high temperature applications. Among the …

Pleated filters are widely used in industrial ventilation systems due to their large filtering
area, small resistance and competitive volume. In this paper, a numerical calculation code …

Based on the closest packing principle of the crystal structure, three configurations of the
spheres in cylindrical packed beds are presented in this study: aligned density layer (ADL) …

The strategy of particle-resolved computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been widely used
to study the hydrodynamic properties of fluid flow in small-sized pebble bed, but generally …

This research frames a novel approach to develop a pseudo-continuous model for
describing the dynamics of a Newtonian fluid in an industrial-scale packed-bed reactor …

Packed beds are used for solar power energy storage, in the chemical and process
industries, and in nuclear reactors. Mining ventilation coolth is the application of interest …

The transport phenomena in packed beds are sensitive to porosity variations. However,
empirical correlations in the literature are not in agreement regarding the prediction of the …

The presence of the confining wall exerts critical influences on packing structure, as well as
transport properties of packed beds with small D/d ratios. In the present work, the variations …

Establishing energy storage systems can provide an effective solution to the challenges
posed by the variability and intermittency of renewable energy sources. Among the available …

Cylindrical particles are widely employed in chemical engineering when a high surface area
is necessary for process intensification. However, reliable information about the orientation …
