A theoretical method is developed to analyze carbon dioxide capture by a stationary single droplet for evaluating the fundamental mass transfer behavior. In the method, the gas-phase diffusion is predicted using a similarity method and the technique of separation of variable is employed to...

This study is aimed at theoretical analysis of the effects of the geometrical parameters on the shaft work of the Stirling engines. The optimal combination of the phase angle and the swept volume ratio, that leads to maximization of the shaft work of the engine, is obtained under different...
