Wang, Jianyong (author), Yang, Jun (author), Gong, Jishuang (author), Zhao, Chunrong (author), Hooman, K. (author)Supercritical flow through a horizontal pipe leads to a non-uniform peripheral wall temperature distribution even when the wall heat flux is kept constant and uniform. This is attributed to lower heat transfer coefficient at the top section where the denser fluid tends to sink. Hence, to obtain a uniform wall temperature, a designed wall...journal article 2022

Sun, H. (author), Wang, Haiqing (author), Yang, M. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)Chemical process systems involve complex dynamic processes, and the state of the system often fluctuates during the production process. To ensure the continuation of production, these fluctuations are often ignored or processed online instead of shutting down the unit. However, the interdependence between components in the system is strong, and...journal article 2022
