An Experimental Investigation On A Single Tubular Sofc For Renewable Energy Based Cogeneration System Apr 2015

An Experimental Investigation On A Single Tubular Sofc For Renewable Energy Based Cogeneration System

Faculty of Engineering University of Malaya

Having negative impacts on environment and the scarcity of resources of conventional fossil fuels, fuel cell technology draws more attention as an alternative for providing the electrical energy in parallel with thermal energy. In this study, a single tubular solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) with an electrolyte of Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia 8 mol% ceramic powder was experimentally investigated. The investigation illustrated the effects of three different fuel flow-rates (175 ml/min, 250 ml/min and 325 ml/min) and two operating temperatures (650 degrees C and 750 degrees C) on the output electrical and thermal powers. The highest electrical voltage (open circuit) and overall …


Co-Production Of Hydrogen And Carbon Nanofibers From Methane Decomposition Over Zeolite Y Supported Ni Catalysts Jan 2015

Co-Production Of Hydrogen And Carbon Nanofibers From Methane Decomposition Over Zeolite Y Supported Ni Catalysts

Faculty of Engineering University of Malaya

The objective of this paper is to study the influences of different operating conditions on the hydrogen formation and properties of accumulated carbon from methane decomposition using zeolite Y supported 15% and 30% Ni, respectively, at a temperature range between 500 and 650 degrees C in a pilot scale fixed bed reactor. The temperature ramp was showed a significant impact on the thermo-catalytic decomposition (TCD) of methane. An optimum temperature range of 550-600 degrees C were required to attain the maximum amount of methane conversion and revealed that at 550 and 600 degrees C, catalyst showed longer activity for the …

Mössbauer Investigation On Electrodeposited Fe-C And Fe-Ni-C Alloys Jan 2001

Mössbauer Investigation On Electrodeposited Fe-C And Fe-Ni-C Alloys

A.S. Md Abdul Haseeb

Hard Fe-C based alloys, Fe-0.96 mass% C and Fe-15.4 mass% C having a microhardness of 810 and 750 HV, respectively, are electrodeposited from sulfate-based baths at 50°C. The Mössbauer spectra consist of high intensity sextet due to ferromagnetic Fe. The linewidth of the sextet is larger for alloys than for the pure Fe, indicating an increased effective field at different Fe sites in the alloys. Absence of any low intensity sextet, which is attributable to the Fe atoms close to the C atoms at the octahedral c-axis position, suggests that the electrodeposited alloys are in an advanced state of aging. …
