Model of pulverized coal combustion in a furnace

Robert Straka, Jindřich Makovička (2007)

Kybernetika

We describe behavior of the air-coal mixture using the Navier–Stokes equations for gas and particle phases, accompanied by a turbulence model. The undergoing chemical reactions are described by the Arrhenian kinetics (reaction rate proportional to exp - E R T , where T is temperature). We also consider the heat transfer via conduction and radiation. Moreover we use improved turbulence-chemistry interactions for reaction terms. The system of PDEs is discretized using the finite volume method (FVM) and an advection...

Model of shell metal mould heating in the automotive industry

Jaroslav Mlýnek, Roman Knobloch (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

This article focuses on heat radiation intensity optimization on the surface of a shell metal mould. Such moulds are used in the automotive industry in the artificial leather production (the artificial leather is used, e.g., on car dashboards). The mould is heated by infrared heaters. After the required temperature is attained, the inner mould surface is sprinkled with special PVC powder. The powder melts and after cooling down it forms the artificial leather. A homogeneous temperature field of...

Modelling of convective phenomena in forest fire.

M.ª Isabel Asensio, Luis Ferragut, Jacques Simon (2002)

RACSAM

We present a model coupling the fire propagation equations in a bidimensional domain representing the surface, and the air movement equations in a three dimensional domain representing an air layer. As the air layer thickness is small compared with its length, an asymptotic analysis gives a three dimensional convective model governed by a bidimensional equation verified by a stream function. We also present the numerical simulations of these equations.

Motion of spirals by crystalline curvature

Hitoshi Imai, Naoyuki Ishimura, TaKeo Ushijima (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Modern physics theories claim that the dynamics of interfaces between the two-phase is described by the evolution equations involving the curvature and various kinematic energies. We consider the motion of spiral-shaped polygonal curves by its crystalline curvature, which deserves a mathematical model of real crystals. Exploiting the comparison principle, we show the local existence and uniqueness of the solution.

Motion planning for a nonlinear Stefan problem

William B. Dunbar, Nicolas Petit, Pierre Rouchon, Philippe Martin (2003)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper we consider a free boundary problem for a nonlinear parabolic partial differential equation. In particular, we are concerned with the inverse problem, which means we know the behavior of the free boundary a priori and would like a solution, e.g. a convergent series, in order to determine what the trajectories of the system should be for steady-state to steady-state boundary control. In this paper we combine two issues: the free boundary (Stefan) problem with a quadratic nonlinearity....
