This paper presents a new method to analyse the unsteady gas flow in both intake and exhaust systems of internal combustion engines. Such a method is based on the simultaneous use of a one-dimensional model applied to describe the phenomena in ducts, together with a lumped parameter scheme to investigate the cylinder or other volume behaviour, coupled with a three-dimensional model, able to guarantee detailed information on flow behaviour in complex geometry, retaining the advantages of all methods, accuracy as well as fast processing and high flow pattern resolution. The description of the one-dimensional model developed with an example of its application is presented. The integrated approach with the coupling procedure is then described. Finally the results of a multicylinder exhaust system simulation are illustrated.

Increasing Temperature

A one-dimensional model has been developed to predict the thermal and electrochemical behavior of a high-temperature steam electrolysis stack. This electrolyzer model allows for the determination of the average Nernst potential, cell operating voltage, gas outlet temperatures, and electrolyzer efficiency for any specified inlet gas flow rates, current density, cell active area, and external heat loss or gain. The model includes a temperature-dependent area-specific resistance (ASR) that accounts for the significant increase in electrolyte ionic conductivity that occurs with increasing temperature. Model predictions are shown to compare favorably with results obtained from a fully 3-D computational fluid dynamics model. The one-dimensional model was also employed to demonstrate the expected trends in electrolyzer performance over a range of operating conditions including isothermal, adiabatic, constant steam utilization, constant flow rate, and the effects of operating temperature.

Improved Design

This paper presents a one-dimensional model for the cooling of optical fibers. Heat transfer between the fiber, gas and wall, by conduction, convection, and radiation, are taken into account. The model offers advanced features such as multiple inlets and outlets. Six different pure gases or their mixtures may be used to study the effect of gas composition. The forced convection heat transfer coefficient is computed using the correlation for the forced convection in tubes and conduits. This correlation is then corrected to account for the enhanced heat transfer due to the motion of the fiber. This factor is determined from the limited experimental data available in the literature. The mathematical model consists of a system of ordinary differential equations and is solved using the LSODE solver. The model was used to study the effect of various operational parameters. The results show that at the typical conditions used in a commercial draw tower, Helium is the most effective cooling medium. A smaller diameter exchanger is more effective in cooling the fiber. More cooling is achieved if the incoming gas temperature is lower as well as if the cooler wall is kept at a lower temperature. The most critical factor is the fiber draw speed. At higher draw speeds, the residence time is low, which leads to shorter contact time for the fiber and gas to exchange heat. The effect of gas flow rate is not very significant, provided the flow regime is laminar. The turbulence flow regime is, in general, not desirable as it may cause vibrations, which is detrimental to fiber properties such as diameter and strength. Comparisons of the one-dimensional model results with the results of a two-dimensional model as well as simulations using Fluent, a commercial CFD package, are also presented. The results of these simulations may be used for an improved design of an exchanger, providing more efficient cooling of optical fiber. An improved design of exchanger will be the focus of future work in this area.

A simple one-dimensional model allowing fast predictions of: a gas composition and temperature profiles, a catalyst temperature profile and an overall hydrogen recombination degree has been developed for a passive catalytic recombiner. The model assumes that heat and mass transport processes, taking place in vertical channels between catalyst plates, occur in a highly non-isothermal, developing laminar gas flow and in conditions of mixed convection. A kinetic model of heterogeneous catalysis was implemented into the model and the heat radiation from the catalyst surface was accounted for. The model with no adjustable parameters was verified against experimental results available in literature and results of numerical simulations obtained by CFD methods.
