Neste trabalho, apresenta-se um estudo numérico de um modelo convectivo-difusivo-reativo em combustão baseado no Método de Elementos Finitos. Primeiramente, apresenta-se o desenvolvimento das equações de balanço (quantidade de movimento, massa, espécie e energia) que modelam um processo de mistura molecular e reação química, irreversível, de passo único e exotérmica entre duas espécies químicas F (Combustível) e O (Oxidante). Tais espécies reagem e formam um produto P, conforme vFF +vOO ! vPP + calor, onde vF , vO e vP são os coeficientes estequiométricos molares. No modelo, considera-se que a reação é de primeira ordem com respeito a cada um dos reagentes e que a taxa de reação específica segue a cinética de Arrhenius. Em seguida, o modelo é estudado numericamente considerando-se um domínio retangular e condições de contorno do tipo Neumann. Tanto a Técnica das Diferenças Finitas como a Técnica de Elementos Finitos são utilizadas na discretização espacial das equações do modelo. Para a integração no tempo, utiliza-se a método de Runge-Kutta simplificado de três estágios. Os diferentes códigos computacionais obtidos, tanto pela Técnica de Diferenças Finitas como de Elementos Finitos, são comparados frente ao problema de interesse. Observa-se que ambas as técnicas apresentam resultados equivalentes. Além disso, os códigos desenvolvidos são robustos (capazes de lidar com vários conjuntos de parâmetros), de baixo custo e precisos. Por fim, apresenta-se uma revisão do trabalho de Zavaleta [48], no qual obtem-se uma estimativa local do erro na aproximação do problema estudado pela Técnica de Elementos Finitos.

Continuous Synthesis by Solution Combustion was employed in this work aiming to obtain tin dioxide nanostructured. Basically, a precursor solution is prepared and then be atomized and sprayed into the flame, where its combustion occurs, leading to the formation of particles. This is a recent technique that shows an enormous potential in oxides deposition, mainly by the low cost of equipment and precursors employed. The tin dioxide (SnO2) nanostructured has been widely used in various applications, especially as gas sensors and varistors. In the case of sensors based on semiconducting ceramics, where surface reactions are responsible for the detection of gases, the importance of surface area and particle size is even greater. The preference for a nanostructured material is based on its significant increase in surface area compared to conventional microcrystalline powders and small particle size, which may benefit certain properties such as high electrical conductivity, high thermal stability, mechanical and chemical. In this work, were employed as precursor solution tin chloride dehydrate diluted in anhydrous ethyl alcohol. Were utilized molar ratio chloride/solvent of 0,75 with the purpose of investigate its influence in the microstructure of produced powder. The solution precursor flux was 3 mL/min. Analysis with X-ray diffraction appointed that a solution precursor with molar ratio chloride/solvent of 0,75 leads to crystalline powder with single phase and all peaks are attributed to phase SnO2. Parameters as distance from the flame with atomizer distance from the capture system with the pilot, molar ratio and solution flux doesn t affect the presence of tin dioxide in the produced powder. In the characterization of the obtained powder techniques were used as thermogravimetric (TGA) and thermodiferential analysis (DTA), particle size by laser diffraction (GDL), crystallographic analysis by X-ray diffraction (XRD), morphology by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), specific surface area (BET) and electrical conductivity analysis. The techniques used revealed that the SnO2 exhibits behavior of a semiconductor material, and a potentially promising material for application as varistor and sensor systems for gas

O presente trabalho apresenta uma modelagem detalhada de processos de combustao turbulentos para um jato concentrico de combustıvel e ar. A modelagem é fundamentada nas equacões de conservacão de massa, de quantidade de movimento, de energia e de espécies quımicas. A turbulencia é resolvida pela utilizacão do modelo k- padrão. Dois modelos de reacões quımicas são apresentados. O modelo SCRS – Simple Chemically-Reacting Systems, que assume taxas instantâneas de reacões quımicas. Também é abordado o modelo E-A – Eddy Breakup - Arrhenius, que assume taxas finitas de reacões quımicas. A radiacão térmica, fenômeno de grande importância devido as altas temperaturas alcancadas em processos de combustão,é modelada através do Método das Zonas. O modelo da soma ponderada de gases cinzas – WSGGM,é usado para determinar o espectro de emissão e absorcão dos gases no processo. Para a solucão destas equacões diferenciais, juntamente com os modelos de turbulência, de reaçõoes químicas e radiação térmica, faz-se o uso do Método dos Volumes Finitos. Para validar a modelagem apresentada resolve-se o processo de combustão em uma câmara cilíndrica. A câmara de combustão usada áa mesma abordada no First Workshop on Aerodynamics of Steady State Combustion Chambers and Furnaces, organizado pela ERCORTAC - European Research Community On Flow Turbulence And Combustion, em outubro de 1994, que apresenta dados experimentais de temperatura e concentração das espécies químicas para várias posições de interesse no interior da câmara. Utiliza-se o gás natural como combustível e o ar atmosférico como oxidante. O processo de combustão sem pré-mistura é resolvido para a condição de excesso de combustível de 5 % para ambos os modelos, onde o gás natural é injetado por um duto circular central, e o ar atmosférico por um orifício anular externo a esse duto, no mesmo plano Uma reação química não estagiada é assumida para o modelo SCRS. Para o modelo E-A duas situações são resolvidas: combustão não estagiada, com uma etapa global de reação química; e reação quımica estagiada, com duas etapas globais. Os resultados obtidos com o modelo SCRS para a distribuição de temperaturas, em termos de tendências gerais, são razoáveis. Já as concentrações de espécies químicas não apresentam dados satisfatórios para este modelo. Para o modelo E-A os resultados apresentam boa concordância com os dados experimentais, principalmente para a situação em que o processo de combustão é assumido em duas etapas globais. ´E analisado em detalhe o papel desempenhado pela transferencia de calor por radiacao, com meio participante. Para melhor verificar as trocas de calor, assume-se uma camara de combustao cilındrica com paredes d’agua. A injecao do combustıvel e do oxidante e feita atraves de um queimador central, semelhante ao usado para validar a modelagem, porem com dois orifıcios concentricos para injecao de combustıvel. Nesta situação o efeito do turbilhonamento (swril), assumido como 20 % da velocidade axial de entrada, sobre a injecao de ar e computado atraves da condicao contorno da equacao de conservacao da quantidade de movimento angular. Nesta fase apenas o modelo E-A, com duas etapas globais de reacoes quımicas, e considerado, ja que o mesmo apresenta os melhores resultados. O processo de combustao e simulado com e sem a presenca da radiacao termica. Verifica-se que a presenca da radiacao termica homogeneiza a temperatura dos gases no interior da camara. Com isso verifica-se tambem alterações nas taxas de reacoes quımicas, modificando a magnitude das fracoes das especies quımicas Quando a radiacao termica e considerada efeitos de extinção local da chama sao verificados nas regioes de temperaturas mais altas, diminuindo o consumo de oxigenio e aumentando a producao de monoxido de carbono, caracterizando assim uma combustao incompleta. Em algumas situacoes tem-se uma variacao de temperatura de ate 500 K, a montante da chama. A radiacao termica tambem aumenta a taxa de transferencia de calor dos gases quentes para as paredes da camara, e desta para o seu exterior. Com os resultados obtidos a partir desta modelagem e possıvel determinar o perfil da zona de combustao, a distribuicao de concentracoes de especies quımicas, o campo de velocidades e as taxas de transferencia de calor para as paredes da camara de combustao, total, por conveccao superficial e por radiacao. Estes resultados sao de extrema importancia para prever a performance de camaras de combustao, assim como auxiliar na sua otimizacao.

Esta dissertação teve como objetivo o estudo e desenvolvimento da técnica de síntese por combustão em solução para obtenção de nanocristais de alumina, e a caracterização desse material por diferentes técnicas. O estudo da obtenção incluiu o modelamento termodinâmico das reações investigadas e a influência da razão combustíveloxidante no tamanho de partícula. A síntese da alumina por combustão foi realizada a partir do par precursor químico glicina-nitrato de alumínio em água, para diferentes razões combustível-oxidante, temperaturas de chama e número total de moles gasosos, relacionando esses parâmetros com tamanho de cristalito no pó, deformação de rede, área superficial e porosidade total. As reações químicas de combustão em solução resultaram na formação in situ de fases metaestáveis de Al2O3 para o pó como-sintetizado. A fase Al2O3-α, cuja formação não ocorreu nem na presença de um extra-oxidante, somente foi obtida após um tratamento térmico a 1100°C do pó como-sintetizado. O modelamento termodinâmico da reação de combustão em solução mostrou que quando a razão combustível-oxidante aumenta, obtém-se uma elevação da temperatura de chama adiabática e da quantidade de gás produzida, definindo características do particulado como morfologia, tamanho de cristalito, área superficial e nível de aglomeração. A caracterização do pó utilizou técnicas como análise termodiferencial (ATD) e termogravimétrica (ATG), granulometria por dispersão de laser (GDL), BET para análise de área superficial e porosidade total, difração de raios X (DRX), microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV), e microscopia eletrônica de transmissão (MET). Os pós de alumina alfa obtidos apresentaram-se como constituídos de cristalitos nanométricos, dispostos na forma de agregados de tamanho micrométrico. O tamanho de cristalito médio, calculado pelo método de Williamson-Hall, a partir de dados de análises por DRX, foi de 97 nm, e deformação média calculada de 5x10-3 % A análise granulométrica dos pós como-sintetizados verificou um tamanho de aglomerado de 40 µm, com distribuição monomodal. As análises por MEV e MET confirmaram a aglomeração das partículas do pó como-sintetizado, a partir de partículas com morfologia irregular.

The development and study of detectors sensitive to flammable combustible and toxic gases at low cost is a crucial technology challenge to enable marketable versions to the market in general. Solid state sensors are attractive for commercial purposes by the strength and lifetime, because it isn t consumed in the reaction with the gas. In parallel, the use of synthesis techniques more viable for the applicability on an industrial scale are more attractive to produce commercial products. In this context ceramics with spinel structure were obtained by microwave-assisted combustion for application to flammable fuel gas detectors. Additionally, alternatives organic-reducers were employed to study the influence of those in the synthesis process and the differences in performance and properties of the powders obtained. The organic- reducers were characterized by Thermogravimetry (TG) and Derivative Thermogravimetry (DTG). After synthesis, the samples were heat treated and characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), analysis by specific area by BET Method and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Quantification of phases and structural parameters were carried through Rietveld method. The methodology was effective to obtain Ni-Mn mixed oxides. The fuels influenced in obtaining spinel phase and morphology of the samples, however samples calcined at 950 °C there is just the spinel phase in the material regardless of the organic-reducer. Therefore, differences in performance are expected in technological applications when sample equal in phase but with different morphologies are tested

The cerium oxide has a high potential for use in removing pollutants after combustion, removal of organic matter in waste water and the fuel-cell technology. The nickel oxide is an attractive material due to its excellent chemical stability and their optical properties, electrical and magnetic. In this work, CeO2-NiO- systems on molars reasons 1:1(I), 1:2(II) e 1:3(III) metal-citric acid were synthesized using the Pechini method. We used techniques of TG / DTG and ATD to monitor the degradation process of organic matter to the formation of the oxide. By thermogravimetric analysis and applying the dynamic method proposed by Coats-Redfern, it was possible to study the reactions of thermal decomposition in order to propose the possible mechanism by which the reaction takes place, as well as the determination of kinetic parameters as activation energy, Ea, pre-exponential factor and parameters of activation. It was observed that both variables exert a significant influence on the formation of complex polymeric precursor. The model that best fitted the experimental data in the dynamic mode was R3, which consists of nuclear growth, which formed the nuclei grow to a continuous reaction interface, it proposes a spherical symmetry (order 2 / 3). The values of enthalpy of activation of the system showed that the reaction in the state of transition is exothermic. The variables of composition, together with the variable temperature of calcination were studied by different techniques such as XRD, IV and SEM. Also a study was conducted microstructure by the Rietveld method, the calculation routine was developed to run the package program FullProf Suite, and analyzed by pseudo-Voigt function. It was found that the molar ratio of variable metal-citric acid in the system CeO2-NiO (I), (II), (III) has strong influence on the microstructural properties, size of crystallites and microstrain network, and can be used to control these properties

The method "toe-to-heel air injection" (THAITM) is a process of enhanced oil recovery, which is the integration of in-situ combustion with technological advances in drilling horizontal wells. This method uses horizontal wells as producers of oil, keeping vertical injection wells to inject air. This process has not yet been applied in Brazil, making it necessary, evaluation of these new technologies applied to local realities, therefore, this study aimed to perform a parametric study of the combustion process with in-situ oil production in horizontal wells, using a semi synthetic reservoir, with characteristics of the Brazilian Northeast basin. The simulations were performed in a commercial software "STARS" (Steam, Thermal, and Advanced Processes Reservoir Simulator), from CMG (Computer Modelling Group). The following operating parameters were analyzed: air rate, configuration of producer wells and oxygen concentration. A sensitivity study on cumulative oil (Np) was performed with the technique of experimental design, with a mixed model of two and three levels (32x22), a total of 36 runs. Also, it was done a technical economic estimative for each model of fluid. The results showed that injection rate was the most influence parameter on oil recovery, for both studied models, well arrangement depends on fluid model, and oxygen concentration favors recovery oil. The process can be profitable depends on air rate

Nearly 3 x 1011 m3 of medium and light oils will remain in reservoirs worldwide after conventional recovery methods have been exhausted and much of this volume would be recovered by Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) methods. The in-situ combustion (ISC) is an EOR method in which an oxygen-containing gas is injected into a reservoir where it reacts with the crude oil to create a high-temperature combustion front that is propagated through the reservoir. The High Pressure Air Injection (HPAI) method is a particular denomination of the air injection process applied in light oil reservoirs, for which the combustion reactions are dominant between 150 and 300°C and the generation of flue gas is the main factor to the oil displacement. A simulation model of a homogeneous reservoir was built to study, which was initially undergone to primary production, for 3 years, next by a waterflooding process for 21 more years. At this point, with the mature condition established into the reservoir, three variations of this model were selected, according to the recovery factors (RF) reached, for study the in-situ combustion (HPAI) technique. Next to this, a sensitivity analysis on the RF of characteristic operational parameters of the method was carried out: air injection rate per well, oxygen concentration into the injected gas, patterns of air injection and wells perforations configuration. This analysis, for 10 more years of production time, was performed with assistance of the central composite design. The reservoir behavior and the impacts of chemical reactions parameters and of reservoir particularities on the RF were also evaluated. An economic analysis and a study to maximize the RF of the process were also carried out. The simulation runs were performed in the simulator of thermal processes in reservoirs STARS (Steam, Thermal, and Advanced Processes Reservoir Simulator) from CMG (Computer Modelling Group). The results showed the incremental RF were small and the net present value (NPV) is affected by high initial investments to compress the air. It was noticed that the adoption of high oxygen concentration into the injected gas and of the five spot pattern tends to improve the RF, and the wells perforations configuration has more influence with the increase of the oil thickness. Simulated cases relating to the reservoir particularities showed that smaller residual oil saturations to gas lead to greater RF and the presence of heterogeneities results in important variations on the RF and on the production curves
