Version 2.3 of the RELAP5-3D computer program includes all features and models previously available only in the ATHENA version of the code. These include the addition of new working fluids (i.e., ammonia, blood, carbon dioxide, glycerol, helium, hydrogen, lead-bismuth, lithium, lithium-lead, nitrogen, potassium, sodium, and sodium-potassium) and a magnetohydrodynamic model that expands the capability of the code to model many more thermal-hydraulic systems. In addition to the new working fluids along with the standard working fluid water, one or more noncondensable gases (e.g., air, argon, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, helium, hydrogen, krypton, nitrogen, oxygen, sf6, xenon) can be specified as part of the vapor/gas phase of the working fluid. These noncondensable gases were in previous versions of RELAP5-3D. Recently four molten salts have been added as working fluids to RELAP5-3D Version 2.4, which has had limited release. These molten salts will be in RELAP5-3D Version 2.5, which will have a general release like RELAP5-3D Version 2.3. Applications that use these new features and models are discussed in this paper.

The slow combustion of ketene in the gas phase was studied by the static method in a 30 × 4 cm Vycor cylinder between 280 and 500 °C at pressures above 20 mm Hg. Extending the work of Barnard and Kirschner, we have established the existence of two types of slow combustion of ketene corresponding to two temperature ranges. In this first paper, we describe the kinetic and analytical results obtained in the higher temperature range (380–500 °C). The reaction is autocatalytic and shows a low temperature coefficient corresponding to a few kilocalories per mole. The main products are carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, water, and carbon dioxide. No ethylene was detected. We suggest a chain reaction in which formaldehyde is the intermediate responsible for degenerate branching:[Formula: see text]

Abstract Gas-solid chromatographic methods are presented for the determination of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, or both simultaneously in the gas phase of cigarette smoke. The methods are optimized to allow quantitative determinations on the entire gas phase delivery of the cigarettes rather than single puffs and to allow the use of small numbers of cigarettes. Shortcomings of several sampling techniques are defined, and evidence is presented supporting the utility of Saran bag sampling and containment. Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide analyses may be performed with relative standard errors of 2—3% and relative confidence intervals (95%) of 6—9% for determinations involving 4—6 cigarettes.

Methyl crotonate undergoes a homogeneous, unimolecular cis–trans isomerization in the gas phase at temperatures from 400 °C to 560 °C. The rate constant for the cis → trans reaction was found to be [Formula: see text]independent of pressure in the range from 0.1 mm to 10 mm. The equilibrium trans/cis ratio is approximately 4.5, independent of temperature, from 200 °C to 500 °C. Simultaneous free-radical reactions also occur, the most important of which are the isomerization to methyl vinylacetate, and the decomposition to give carbon dioxide and the various butene isomers. Side reactions gave carbon monoxide, methane, propylene, numerous other hydrocarbons, and various ethers.

AbstractGas-phase photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) of styrene was studied. Styrene appeared to poison the photocatalyst easily degrading its PCO efficiency at concentrations above certain level. Below this level no poisoning of the photocatalyst was observed. The presence of humidity extended the photocatalyst’s lifetime. The yield of carbon dioxide also increased in humid air, although lower conversion degrees of styrene were observed. Carbon dioxide was the main gaseous PCO product; carbon monoxide was formed in trace amounts. The apparent styrene PCO rate was independent of temperature at the initial stage of oxidation. However, the PCO rate noticeably increased with temperature at stages close to complete photocatalyst poisoning. The photocatalyst’s activity was entirely restored by UV -irradiation in humid airflow: adsorbed by-products were successfully oxidised. The simultaneous PCO of styrene with oxygenated hydrocarbons-alcohols and ethers-resulted in the photocatalyst poisoning along the same pattern as for styrene alone.

A detailed mathematical model is developed for simulation of heat and mass transfer processes during the pyrolysis and combustion of a single biomass particle. The kinetic scheme of Shafizadeh and Chin is employed to describe the pyrolysis process. The light gases formed during the biomass pyrolysis is assumed to consist of methane, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen and water vapor with given mass fractions relevant to those found in the experiments of high heating conditions. The combustion model takes into account the reactions of oxygen with methane, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, tar and char as well as gasification of char with water vapor and carbon dioxide. Appropriate correlations taken from past studies are used for computation of the rate of these reactions. The model allows calculation of time and space evolution of various parameters including biomass and char densities, gaseous species and temperature. Different experimental data reported in the literature are employed to validate the pyrolysis and combustion models. The reasonable agreement obtained between the predictions and measured data reveals that the presented model is capable of successfully capturing various experiments of wood particle undergoing a pyrolysis or combustion process. In particular, the role of gas phase reactions within and adjacent to particle on the combustion process is examined. The results indicate that for the case of small particles in the order of millimeter size and less, one may neglect any effects of gas phase reactions. However, for larger particles, a combustion model may need to include hydrogen oxidation and even carbon monoxide combustion reactions.



Gaseous oxidation phenomena show a great variety, since actions may take place both on the vessel wall and homogeneously, and reaction chains which may thus be set up are broken either in the gas phase or at the wall according to circumstances. With the object of extending the picture of these reactions, we have studied the oxidation of cyanogen, which, in several respects, exhibits a kind of behaviour quite different from that met with in the oxdiation of hydrogen, phosphine and various hydrocarbons. There is evidence of the formation on the vessel wall of activated carbon monoxide molecules, some of which are oxidised immediately to carbon dioxide, and the remainder of which are deactivated. The further oxidation of normal carbon monoxide is inhibited in a remarkable way by cyanogen. An explosion limit exists, but appears to be of a rather special kind, unlike the limits found in the oxidation of hydrogen, and phosphine, and depending on certain particular adsorption relationships.

The reaction of methanol with silver(I) oxide has been studied in the temperature range 56.5-78.4�. For complete reduction of the oxide at 78.4�, the available oxygen is fully accounted for by the products, formaldehyde, formic acid, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and water. In the temperature range 56.5-70.2� the net measured rates of formation of these products are expressed by equations of the form, ������������������ rate = Aexp(-E/RT), and the kinetic data are interpreted as the consecutive formation of the products on the surface without complete desorption to the gas phase between each step. For the dominant product, carbon dioxide, at the mean temperature the values of A and E are 1028.5 μg oxygen per minute and 41.3 kcal mole-1 respectively. The former is interpreted in terms of a simple collision model and the latter compared with values obtained for the thermal decomposition of the oxide.
