Latent thermal energy storage (LTES) heat exchangers can provide energy storage in a
broad range of energy systems. Implementing LTES heat exchangers requires an …

This study develops a thermodynamic analysis method to determine thermal efficiency and
provide information regarding capacity design specification for each system component. A …

This paper presents a flexible control structure for fire-tube boilers based on a suitable
integration of the typical decentralized PI control structure and model predictive control …

The issue of maintaining low-gradient combustion in the conditions of high heat extraction
has been investigated numerically in this work. The analyses include the application of a …

A steam boiler is a closed vessel that produces steam used in many industrial fields. Steam
boilers suffer from the pipe corrosion problem, which leads to damage and explosion of the …

This study investigates the optimal arrangement of combustion chambers in double-flame
hot-water boilers using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) under steady-state and laminar …

In the present work, the overall behavior of a steam boiler is investigated using
RELAP5/MOD3. 2 system code at three different operating loads. Main thermal–hydraulic …

The objective of this study was to select an appropriate fuel having different sulfur contents
in various coal fuels and optimize the excess air in order to reduce dry flue gas loss, avoid …

Boilers and most boilers are classified as pressure vessels, and according to this article,
they should not work at low pressure. If these tanks are working at low pressure, their …

The aim of this research is to understand the reason of failure in a fire-tube heater-treater
using finite element method (FEM). The fire tube, made of ASTM A516 G70 steel, failed after …
