The catalytic reforming of methane with carbon dioxide on Pd (∼1%)/α-Al2O3 and (∼1%)−CeOx/α-Al2O3 catalysts was studied at 627 °C using a stoichiometric feed mixture. Characterization fresh used samples carried out by TEM TG analyses. Preliminary experiments in the 600−730 temperature range demonstrated that, Pd/α-Al2O3, conversion CO2 larger than that CH4 because reverse water−gas shift (RWGS) reaction, although CO/H2 ratio close to 1. This behavior is attributed predominant decomposition...
This paper presents a two-dimensional model to solve the vertically averaged shallow water and sediment transport equations for short- long-term simulations. The implements four-time-step explicit scheme that permits longer time steps than previous finite element models. Also, an algorithm is incorporated decreases considerably computer times simulations while preserving advantages of schemes. results compare very well with analytical solutions simplified one- problems. A 5-year simulation...
ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to simulate the variation available soil water during maize crop growth, in two different sowing times (first and second growing season), using a drip irrigation system. treatments consisted strategies (full deficit). SIMDualKc simulation model used determine daily balance evapotranspiration dual coefficient approach. Soil, climate, parameters were as input data. Two experiments carried out rainout shelter composed metallic structures (16x10m) city...
