... hydrogen and solid (black) carbon. It uses wave rotor technology that has been applied to other applications but developed specifically here for high-temperature pyrolysis by New Wave Hydrogen Inc. (NWH). This research uses a quasi-two-dimensional (Q2D) model implemented in Ansys Fluent to study...

... Abstract The paper describes a numerical investigation of the thermal decomposition of methane to hydrogen and carbon within a single-channel, four-port wave rotor using a three-dimensional (3-D), Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) CFD model. This work is in support of the New Wave Hydrogen...

... Abstract In the present research work, a novel method of integrating the conventional gas turbine engine with a Wave Rotor (WR) and a Pulse Detonation Combustor (PDC) is proposed to increase the specific work and thermal efficiency of the engine. Two gas turbine engine configurations, viz. (i...

... Wave rotor Compressible flow Shock wave Gas turbine Thermal cycle The wave rotor is a device capable of increasing the pressure of a fluid by deploying shock waves in a transient process. The operation principle is based on the shock tube where shock waves, rarefaction waves...

... 11 01 2011 The paper is focused on the numerical analysis of a wave topping unit used in a small turbojet engine. The analysis focuses on a four-port reverse flow (RF) wave rotor. The special feature of the considered wave rotor is its very high rotational speed. The wave rotor...
