In the present study, a 2-D axisymmetric steady-state computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model has been developed for biomass gasification in a fixed bed Imbert downdraft gasifier. A discrete phase model (DPM) based on the Euler-Lagrangian approach with species transport is applied to the gasifier having the capacity of ≈ 5 kW. The use of DPM for t...
In the present article, experimental studies are performed on Imbert downdraft gasifier using two different air distribution systems (two-nozzle and air-sparger) for the combustion zone. A novel air distribution system (air-sparger) is designed to supply uniform air across the combustion zone for achieving uniform temperature and enhancing the tar...
The mounting CO2 emission and rapid depletion of fossil fuels are two significant challenges for sustaining growing energy requirements and keeping the environment clean. Biomass gasification using CO2 as a gasifying agent may be one of the alternative techniques to tackle such emerging problems. CO2 behaves as an inert gas at low temperatures and...
CFD model has been developed for the 2D axisymmetric model of an Imbert downdraft gasifier. The present Model has been validated with experimental data. The model predicts CO, hydrogen, and CO2 with precise accuracy. Producer gas composition and gasifier temperature have been studied at different equivalence ratios (ER) i.e. 0.25 to 0.60. It is not...
The present work comprehensively covers the literature that describes the thermochemical techniques of hydrogen production from biomass. This survey highlights the current approaches, relevant methods, technologies and resources adopted for high yield hydrogen production. Prominent thermochemical methods i.e. pyrolysis, gasification, supercritical...
Numerical work has been carried out to investigate the effect of different material of thermal coating layer which is applied at the piston top. Thermal coating layer is essentially considered to improve the piston life and hence the performance of internal combustion (IC) engines. An aluminium alloy (AlSi) piston compatible with modern internal co...
