Effect Analysis on Combustion and Emission Characteristics of a Rotary Burner Fueled by Biomass Pellet Fuel by Guohai Jia, Lijun Li, D. M. Zhang

“…A biomass pellet rotary burner was chosen as the research object, in order to study the influence of excess air coefficient on the combustion phenomenon of biomass rotary burner, the finite element simulation model of a biomass rotary burner was established, and simulation results of a biomass rotary burner were verified by the experiment. The computational fluid dynamics software was applied to simulate the combustion characteristics of biomass rotary burner in a steady-state condition, and the effect of excess air coefficient on temperature field and component concentration field in biomass rotary burner was analyzed. …”

Defective Laplacians and paradoxical phenomena in crowd motion modeling by Maury, Bertrand

“…In both continuous and discrete settings, Laplace operators appear quite commonly in the modeling of natural phenomena, in several context: diffusion, heat propagation, porous media, fluid flows through pipes, electricity.... In these contexts, the discrete Laplace operator enjoys all the properties of its continuous counterpart, in particular: self-adjointness, variational formulation, stochastic interpretation, mean value property, maximum principle, ...In a first part, we give a detailed description of the correspondence between these mathematical properties and modeling considerations, in contexts where the continuous and the discrete settings perfectly match. …”
