Modelling of an industrial fluidised bed dryer
… models have been published. To investigate the coupled relationship between the operating parameters, fluidisation regimes and drying performance, the drying of industrial nylon-6.6 polymer particles (Geldart Type D) was studied both at laboratory and industrial-scale. At laboratory-scale, …

Aerosol Condensational Growth in Cloud Formation
A code for the quasi-stationary solution of the coupled heat and mass transport equations for aerosols in a finite volume was developed. Both mass and heat are conserved effectively in the volume, which results in a competitive aerosol condensation growth computational model. A further model that …

System-level Design, Fabrication, and Optimization of Sorbent-based Atmospheric Water Harvesting Devices
… problem of water scarcity, especially in arid inland regions where alternative technologies are limited. However, current sorbent materials are often limited in their applicability due to system integration and device design constraints. In this thesis, we present advancement of atmospheric water …
