Radiation is an important means of heat transfer inside an electric arc furnace (EAF).
To gain insight into the complex processes of heat transfer inside the EAF vessel, not only radiation from the surfaces but also emission and absorption of the gas phase and the dust cloud need to be considered.
Furthermore, the radiative heat exchange depends on the geometrical configuration which is continuously changing throughout the process.
The present paper introduces a system model of the EAF which takes into account the radiative heat transfer between the surfaces
and the participating medium. This is attained by the development of a simplified geometrical model,
the use of a weighted-sum-of-gray-gases model, and a simplified consideration of dust radiation.
The simulation results were compared with the data of real EAF plants available in literature.
Modeling and Simulation the Influence of Solid Carbon Formation on SOFC Performance and Degradation
(2013)
Modeling and simulation play a key role in analyzing the complex electrochemical behavior of lithium-ion batteries. We present the development of a thermodynamic and kinetic modeling framework for intercalation electrochemistry within the open-source software Cantera. Instead of using equilibrium potentials and single-step Butler-Volmer kinetics, Cantera is based on molar thermodynamic data and mass-action kinetics, providing a physically-based and flexible means for complex reaction pathways. Herein, we introduce a new thermodynamic class for intercalation materials into the open-source software. We discuss the derivation of molar thermodynamic data from experimental half-cell potentials, and provide practical guidelines. We then demonstrate the new class using a single-particle model of a lithium cobalt oxide/graphite lithium-ion cell, implemented in MATLAB. With the present extensions, Cantera provides a platform for the lithium-ion battery modeling community both for consistent thermodynamic and kinetic models and for exchanging the required thermodynamic and kinetic parameters. We provide the full MATLAB code and parameter files as supplementary material to this article.
This article presents the development, parameterization, and experimental validation of a pseudo-three-dimensional (P3D) multiphysics model of a 350 mAh high-power lithium-ion pouch cell with graphite anode and lithium cobalt oxide/lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (LCO/NCA) blend cathode. The model describes transport processes on three different scales: Heat transport on the macroscopic scale (cell), mass and charge transport on the mesoscopic scale (electrode pair), and mass transport on the microscopic scale (active material particles). A generalized description of electrochemistry in blend electrodes is developed, using the open-source software Cantera for calculating species source terms. Very good agreement of model predictions with galvanostatic charge/discharge measurements, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and surface temperature measurements is observed over a wide range of operating conditions (0.05C to 10C charge and discharge, 5°C to 35°C). The behavior of internal states (concentrations, potentials, temperatures) is discussed. The blend materials show a complex behavior with both intra-particle and inter-particle non-equilibria during cycling.
Battery degradation is a complex physicochemical process that strongly depends on operating conditions. We present a model-based analysis of lithium-ion battery degradation in a stationary photovoltaic battery system. We use a multi-scale multi-physics model of a graphite/lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4, LFP) cell including solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation. The cell-level model is dynamically coupled to a system-level model consisting of photovoltaics (PV), inverter, load, grid interaction, and energy management system, fed with historic weather data. Simulations are carried out for two load scenarios, a single-family house and an office tract, over annual operation cycles with one-minute time resolution. As key result, we show that the charging process causes a peak in degradation rate due to electrochemical charge overpotentials. The main drivers for cell ageing are therefore not only a high state of charge (SOC), but the charging process leading towards high SOC. We also show that the load situation not only influences system parameters like self-sufficiency and self-consumption, but also has a significant impact on battery ageing. We assess reduced charge cut-off voltage as ageing mitigation strategy.
In this work the adsorption of CO2 and CH4 on a series of isoreticular microporous metal–organic frameworks based on 2-substituted imidazolate-4-amide-5-imidates, IFP-1–IFP-6 (IFP = Imidazolate Framework Potsdam), is studied firstly by pure gas adsorption at 273 K. All experimental isotherms can be nicely described by using the Tòth isotherm model and show the preferred adsorption of CO2 over CH4. At low pressures the Tòth isotherm equation exhibits a Henry region, wherefore Henry's law constants for CO2 and CH4 uptake could be determined and ideal selectivity αCO2/CH4 has been calculated. Secondly, selectivities were calculated from mixture data by using nearly equimolar binary mixtures of both gases by a volumetric–chromatographic method to examine the IFPs. Results showed the reliability of the selectivity calculation. Values of αCO2/CH4 around 7.5 for IFP-5 indicate that this material shows much better selectivities than IFP-1, IFP-2, IFP-3, IFP-4 and IFP-6 with slightly lower selectivity αCO2/CH4 = 4–6. The preferred adsorption of CO2 over CH4 especially of IFP-5 and IFP-4 makes these materials suitable for gas separation application.
MITK-OpenIGTLink for combining open-source toolkits in real-time computer-assisted interventions
(2016)
PURPOSE:
Due to rapid developments in the research areas of medical imaging, medical image processing and robotics, computer-assisted interventions (CAI) are becoming an integral part of modern patient care. From a software engineering point of view, these systems are highly complex and research can benefit greatly from reusing software components. This is supported by a number of open-source toolkits for medical imaging and CAI such as the medical imaging interaction toolkit (MITK), the public software library for ultrasound imaging research (PLUS) and 3D Slicer. An independent inter-toolkit communication such as the open image-guided therapy link (OpenIGTLink) can be used to combine the advantages of these toolkits and enable an easier realization of a clinical CAI workflow.
METHODS:
MITK-OpenIGTLink is presented as a network interface within MITK that allows easy to use, asynchronous two-way messaging between MITK and clinical devices or other toolkits. Performance and interoperability tests with MITK-OpenIGTLink were carried out considering the whole CAI workflow from data acquisition over processing to visualization.
RESULTS:
We present how MITK-OpenIGTLink can be applied in different usage scenarios. In performance tests, tracking data were transmitted with a frame rate of up to 1000 Hz and a latency of 2.81 ms. Transmission of images with typical ultrasound (US) and greyscale high-definition (HD) resolutions of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is possible at up to 512 and 128 Hz, respectively.
CONCLUSION:
With the integration of OpenIGTLink into MITK, this protocol is now supported by all established open-source toolkits in the field. This eases interoperability between MITK and toolkits such as PLUS or 3D Slicer and facilitates cross-toolkit research collaborations. MITK and its submodule MITK-OpenIGTLink are provided open source under a BSD-style licence ( http://mitk.org )
In this paper, the effect of the polycrystalline microstructure on crack-tip opening displacement and crack closure is investigated for microstructural short plane strain fatigue cracks using the finite-element method. To this end, cracks are introduced in synthetically generated microstructures and the grain properties are described using a single crystal plasticity model with kinematic hardening. Additionally, finite-element calculations without resolved microstructure and von Mises plasticity with kinematic hardening are performed. Fully-reversed strain-controlled cyclic loadings are considered under large-scale yielding conditions as typical for low-cycle fatigue problems. The crack opening stress and the cyclic crack-tip opening displacement are significantly influenced by the local grain structure. While the stabilized crack opening stresses obtained with the microstructure-based finite-element model are in good accordance with the von Mises plasticity results, the differences in the cyclic crack opening displacement are addressed to the asymmetric plastic strain fields in the plastic wake behind the crack-tip of the microstructure-based model. The asymmetric plastic strain fields result in discontinuous and premature contact of the crack flanks.
Oxidation of the nickel electrode is a severe aging mechanism of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) and solid oxide electrolyzer cells (SOEC). This work presents a modeling study of safe operating conditions with respect to nickel oxide formation. Microkinetic reaction mechanisms for thermochemical and electrochemical nickel oxidation are integrated into a 2D multiphase model of an anode‐supported solid oxide cell. Local oxidation propensity can be separated into four regimes. Simulations show that the thermochemical pathway generally dominates the electrochemical pathway. As a consequence, as long as fuel utilization is low, cell operation considerably below electrochemical oxidation limit of 0.704 V is possible without the risk of reoxidation.
Im Rahmen des Kontinentalen Tiefbohrprogramms der Bundesrepublik Deutschland (KTB) wurde im September 1987 in der Oberpfalz bei Windischeschenbach mit der Vorbohrung begonnen, die im Frühjahr des letzten Jahres bei einer Tiefe von 4000m erfolgreich abgeschlossen wurde. Mit der in diesem Jahr beginnenden Hauptbohrung will man 10 bis 12km tief in das Erdinnere vorstoßen. Nicht nur anhand von Gesteins- und Flüssigkeitsproben, sondern auch mit Hilfe von Meßsonden werden umfangreiche geophysikalische Daten gewonnen. Der Aufsatz beschreibt, wie die magnetische Suszeptibilität von Gesteinen bis ca. 300°C Umgebungstemperatur und einem Druck von 2kbar gemessen wird und die Daten über ein 14km langes Bohrlochkabel von der Sonde zum Steuerrechner übertragen werden.
