Yañez Diaz, Daniel (author)Hydrogen has emerged as a promising candidate for energy storage, offering an alternative to fossil fuels as a primary fuel source. It can be safely stored in a liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) and recovered upon demand through the reversible hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of the LOHC. Voyex, a technology-driven startup, is developing a...master thesis 2023

Morete Barbosa Bertolo, V. (author)The use of materials in increasingly severe service conditions raises concerns about structural safety with respect to cleavage fracture. There are three main material-related challenges that structures face under harsh environments: 1) the trade-off between strength and toughness; 2) the ductile-to-brittle transition behaviour of BCC high...doctoral thesis 2023

Eijsberg, Daan (author)Fermentation processes are considered to be essential to decrease our reliance on fossil fuel based products. However, the scale-up from lab-scale to industrial-scale has proven to be difficult. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has the potential to be a tool to optimize the scale-up and to help engineers understand the relevant hydrodynamics...master thesis 2023

Nijssen, T.M.J. (author), Ottens, M. (author), Padding, J.T. (author)Lubrication forces play a major role in the behaviour of fluid–solid systems, where they affect the collisions between particles. Current implementations of lubrication forces in unresolved simulations often suffer from shortcomings, such as neglecting parts of the physics or relying on arbitrarily defined parameters. In this short...journal article 2023

Rajora, A. (author), Haverkort, J.W. (author)Understanding multiphase flow close to the electrode surface is crucial to the design of electrolyzers, such as alkaline water electrolyzers for the production of green hydrogen. Vertical electrodes develop a narrow gas plume near their surface. We apply the integral method to the mixture model. Considering both exponentially varying and step...journal article 2023

Fathi, Mohamad (author), Hickel, S. (author), Roekaerts, D.J.E.M. (author)Transcritical fuel sprays form an indispensable part of high-pressure energy-conversion systems. Modeling the complex real-fluid effects in the high-pressure multiphase regime of such sprays accurately, especially the hybrid subcritical-to-supercritical mode of evaporation during mixing fuel and oxidizer, is essential and challenging. This...book chapter 2023

Mohammed Rajiv, Adila (author)The need to curb CO2 emissions has led to an increase in the utilization of CCS systems. These systems use pipelines for the transport of CO2. It is preferred that CO2 be transported in it’s dense form. But, this is not always the case as the phase in which CO2 exists is based on the operating conditions. In some cases, multiphase CO2 is...master thesis 2022

Wang, Y. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)CO2 injection into deep saline aquifers has shown to be a feasible option, as for their large storage capacity under safe operational conditions.

Wang, Y. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Hajibeygi, H. (author)Natural or induced fractures are typically present in subsurface geological formations. Therefore, they need to be carefully studied for reliable estimation of the long-term carbon dioxide storage. Instinctively, flow-conductive fractures may undermine storage security as they increase the risk of CO2 leakage if they intersect the CO2 plume. In...journal article 2022
