The topic of this paper is the computational modeling of the gas injection process in a large-bore natural gas fueled engine. At high injection pressures, the overall gas injection and mixing process includes compressible flow features such as rarefaction waves and shock formation. The injection geometries examined in the paper include both a two-dimensional slot and an axisymmetric nozzle. The computations examine the effect of the supply pressure/cylinder stagnation pressure ratio, with ratios ranging from 3 to 80, on the velocity and pressure profiles in the near field region. Computational fluid dynamics modeling was compared with results obtained from a two-dimensional analytical method of characteristics solution and experimental results. The comparison process evaluated factors such as pressure and Mach number profiles, jet boundary shape, and shock location.

The palm fruit biomass is introduced into the pyrolysis reactor bed and the transport equations for heat, mass and momentum transfer are solved using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique. The Eulerian-Eulerian approach is employed to model fluidizing behavior of the sand for an externally heated reactor prior to the introduction of the biomass. The particle motion in the reactor is computed using the drag laws which depend on the local volume fraction of each phase. Heat transfer from the fluidized bed to the biomass particles together with the pyrolysis reactions were simulated by Fluent CFD code through user-defined function (UDF). Spontaneous production of pyrolysis oil, char and non-condensable gases (NCG) confirm the observation widely reported in literature. The computer model can potentially be used to assess other candidate biomass sources also to assist design of optimized pyrolysis reactors.
