Finite volume method modeling of corona discharge microreactor oxidization of dibenzothiophene

Creator:

Fan, Xiangru

Abstract:

The growing need for cleaner fuels requires the development of better deep fuel desulfurization methods. The current study presents a reaction model for the mechanism of dibenzothiophene oxidization by dissolved oxygen occurring in a corona discharge microreactor. In the present work, a Finite Volume Method model of the reactor is...

Finite element transport using Wachspress rational basis functions on quadrilaterals in diffusive regions

Creator:

Davidson, Gregory G.

Abstract:

Wachspress rational functions are ratios of polynomials having certain properties which make them good candidates for basis functions in finite element methods. In addition. it had been theorized that Wachspress rational weight functions should Provide a full-resolution discretization of the neutral particle transport equation in thick diffusive regions, but this...
