Kinetics of the Thermal Reaction of H Atoms with Propyne

April 15, 2010

Author(s)

Claudette M. Rosado-Reyes, Jeffrey A. Manion, Wing Tsang

The reaction of hydrogen atoms with propyne(CH≡CCH3) has been investigated in a heated single pulse shock tube at temperatures of 870-1145K and pressures of 2-9 bar. Stable products from various reaction channels (terminal and non-terminal H addition, and

Application of the Advanced Distillation Curve Method to the Development of Unleaded Aviation Gasoline

April 2, 2010

Author(s)

Bret Windom, Tara Lovestead, Thomas J. Bruno

The primary fuel used within the general aviation industry is a petroleum based gasoline blended with small amounts of tetraethyl lead (a lead-based additive used to increase the octane number of gasoline without affecting its performance) called 100 LL

Composition-Explicit Distillation Curves for Mixtures of Gasoline and Diesel Fuel with g-Valerolactone

March 23, 2010

Author(s)

Thomas J. Bruno, Arron Wolk, Alexander Naydich

Interest in the domestic production of bio-derived fuels, sparked by the high cost of petroleum crude oil, the potential of supply disruptions, and fears about climate change has lead to consideration of fluids to replace or extend conventional petroleum

Relating Complex Fluid Composition and Thermophysical Properties with the Advanced Distillation Curve Approach

March 17, 2010

Author(s)

Thomas J. Bruno, Lisa S. Ott, Tara M. Lovestead, Marcia L. Huber

Complex fluids have long posed a significant challenge in our ability to characterize and model fluid properties. Here, we consider complex fluids to be mixtures with many components that can differ significantly in polarity and polarizability. The

Neutron radioscopy: industrial and scientific applications

March 15, 2010

Author(s)

Daniel Hussey, Michael A. Hickner

Neutron imaging has been a unique, precise, measurement tool for water transport in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), enabling the direct measurement of the water distribution in standard, commercially viable fuel cell hardware. Thus, in the

Complex Fluid Analysis with the Advanced Distillation Curve Approach

February 1, 2010

Author(s)

Thomas J. Bruno, Lisa S. Ott, Beverly L. Smith, Tara M. Lovestead

An improved method for measuring distillation curves reveals the physicochemical properties of complex fluids such as fuels.

System Dynamics Modeling of Corn Ethanol as a Bio Transportation Fuel in the United States

January 28, 2010

Author(s)

Deogratias Kibira, Guodong Shao, Stephen -. Nowak

The production capacity of corn ethanol as a transportation fuel is experiencing rapid growth in the United States. The demand is driven by increased prices of gasoline, government mandates, incentives, and the need to achieve energy independence

Density and Speed of Sound Measurements of Hexadecane

January 7, 2010

Author(s)

Stephanie L. Outcalt, Arno R. Laesecke, Tara J. Fortin

The density and speed of sound of hexadecane have been measured using two instruments. Both instruments use the vibrating-tube method for measuring density. Ambient pressure (83 kPa) density and speed of sound measurements were carried out with a rapid

Thermodynamic Properties of Propane. III. A Reference Equation of State for Temperatures from the Melting Line to 650 K and Pressures up to 1000 MPa

November 23, 2009

Author(s)

Eric W. Lemmon, Mark O. McLinden, W Wagner

Times New RomanA formulation is presented for the thermodynamic properties of propane. The equation of state is valid for temperatures from the triple point temperature (85.525 K) to 650 K and for pressures up to 1000 MPa. The formulation can be used for

The Composition Explicit Distillation Curve Technique: Relating Chemical Analysis and Physical Properties of Complex Fluids

November 17, 2009

Author(s)

Thomas J. Bruno, Lisa S. Ott, Tara M. Lovestead, Marcia L. Huber

The analysis of complex fluids such as crude oils, fuels, vegetable oils and mixed waste streams poses significant challenges arising primarily from the multiplicity of components, the different properties of the components (polarity, polarizability, etc)

Density and Speed of Sound Measurements of 1- and 2-Butanol

November 12, 2009

Author(s)

Stephanie L. Outcalt, Arno R. Laesecke, Tara J. Fortin

The density and speed of sound of 1- and 2-butanol have been measured using two instruments. Both instruments use the vibrating-tube method for measuring density. Ambient pressure (83 kPa) density and speed of sound measurements were carried out from 278

Observations of Transient Flooding in a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Using Time-Resolved Neutron Radiography

November 10, 2009

Author(s)

Michael A. Hickner, Nathan P. Siegel, Ken S. Chen, Daniel S. Hussey, David L. Jacobson

The generation and transport of water in both the liquid and gas phases during device operation is an important area of study to understand both steady-state and transient performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. Specifically, localized high
