Latent heat storage using metals as solid-liquid phase change materials (PCMs) have been concerned for medium-temperature thermal energy storage. However, due to the leakage and corrosion problems during phase transformation, the use of metallic PCMs…
The solid-liquid phase change energy storage system promoted the efficient and sustainable utilization of dispersive and intermittent renewable energy. Low energy storage rate and unbalanced thermophysical characteristics existed in the vertical…
The American Petroleum Institute (API) 12F is the specification for vertical, aboveground shop-welded storage tanks published by the API. The nominal capacity for the twelve tank designs given in the current 13th edition of API 12F ranges from 90…
Adopting phase change materials (PCMs), the latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) technology provides a potential solution to solve the fluctuation and instability of solar energy utilization. However, its applicability is strictly limited by…
One of the important challenges in city gate gas pressure reduction stations is the heating of the natural gas prior to pressure reduction. Regarding the low efficiency of the common water bath heaters in these stations another type of double…
To efficiently remove Ni from crude oils and also without corrosion occurring in the process, polymer brush with core-shell structure (PAA@SiO2) was synthesized by radical polymerization, in which micro-sized SiO2 as the core and polyacrylic acid as…
The importance of asset integrity assurance of strategical equipment such as crude oil storage tanks (COS Tanks) is attributed to the possible impact on operation interruption, safety hazards, and cost of maintenance. This paper studies how the…
