Emissions modeling

The fraction of black-body radiation actually emitted by flames is called emissivity. Emissivity is determined first by adsorption of radiation by combustion products (including soot) in flames and second by radiation wavelength. These factors make emissivity modeling complicated. By assuming that a fire radiates as a gray body, in other words, that extinction coefficients of the radiation adsorption are independent of the wavelength, a fire s emissivity can be written as...

The forward current at a semiconductor-metal junction is mainly determined by a majority carrier transfer i.e. electrons for n-type, as illustrated in Fig. 1 d. In this majority carrier device the socalled thermionic emission model is applied according to which all electrons reaching the surface are transferred to the metal. In this case we have ...

For the prediction of NOx formation, the extended Zeldovich mechanism described by Heywood[603] was implemented. The soot emission modelis a modified version of previously published models for soot formation and oxidation. Details of the soot emission model have been discussed by Han et al.[604]... 

Formation of an explosive cloud This step is often done using two computer models. The first is a source emissions model which calculates what happens at the interface between the contained material and the atmosphere into which it is being released. The second is a dispersion model which calculates how the released material disperses and mixes with the air.

Several methods have been developed to estimate the exposure to such emissions. Most methods are based on either ambient air quality surveys or emission modeling. Exposure to other components of diesel emissions, such as PAHs, is also higher in occupational settings than it is in ambient environments. The principles of the techniques most often used in exhaust gas analysis include infrared (NDIR and FTIR), chemiluminescence, flame ionization detector (FID and fast FID), and paramagnetic methods.

Since then, mobile source emissions models have been revised to take these increased emissions into account. As expected, the agreement between the observed and predicted concentration ratios is improved in most cases (e.g., see Gertler and Pierson, 1994 Gertler et al., 1996 Robinson et al., 1996 Pierson et al., 1996 Kirchstetter et al., 1996 McLaren et al., 1996b and Pollack et al, 1998). 

It is also clear that on-road driving habits may not be well represented by the test cycles used to develop the emissions models. For example, Kelly and Grob-licki (1993) point out that lower acceleration rates have been historically used in the test cycles in order to avoid slipping of the belt-driven dynamometers than are encountered in real driving. Figure 16.31 shows the results of on-board tailpipe emissions measurements during a portion of a real driving cycle in which the... 

This illustrative study, using the new approach to CDPF emissions modelling, shows that PGM distribution can have a significant effect on emissions. In later work, with improved kinetics that more closely describe the real-world system performance, it has been shown that very great cost savings can be achieved by correctly zoning the CDPF (York et al., 2008). 

Such radiation models have been in permanent development over the last 30 years, and the published results may be classified in two main categories incidence models which may be characterized by mathematical models assuming the existence of a given radiant energy distribution in the vicinity of the reactor, and emission models in which lamp characteristics, reaction, and flow processes are taken into account. 

Emission Models. Incident models do not make use of all the operating variables, such as radiant power or radiant exitance, diameter, and length of the light source, or dimensions and reflection coefficient of the elliptical cavity mentioned above. Models that describe the space of irradiation on the basis of geometry and process variables are known as emission models. 

The simplest emission model is the line source with parallel plane (LSPP) emission model. In this model the lamp is considered to be a linear source in... 

Further development of the emission models was made by Irazoqui et al. who introduced the three-dimensional nature of the extended light source [117]. Hence, the most significant feature of the extense source with volumetric emission (ESVE) model is the inclusion of a radiant energy source with finite spatial dimensions. In fact, the lamp is considered to be a perfect cylinder, the boundaries of which are represented by a mathematical surface of zero thickness (Figure 30). 

Other emission models for photochemical reactors include the extense source with superficial emission (ESSE) model in which the light source is assumed to be a surface [119], and the equivalent extense source with diffuse superficial emission (ESDSE) model which has been developed to calculate the radiant power profile generated by several superficial light sources [120], Radiation field modelling for photochemical reactors has been extensively reviewed by Cassano et al. [121, 122],...
