Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

An electrogasdynamic generator-expander (EGD-G-E) stage having a new flow section and a new system and form of electrodes is proposed. Variation of the flow parameters, velocity of charged particles, and radii of the flow section along the length of the nozzle apparatus and the diffuser has been investigated. Such an EGD-G-E can be used as a refrigeration source in natural gas liquefiers, air-fractionating plants, gas-fractionating stations, etc.
