Thesis by Alexander Machold, 2011 (Graz Technical University / AVL) 192 pages with auxiliary appendix german keywords: Wankelmotor / Kreiskolbenmotor English Keywords: Wankel Engine / Wankel Rotary Engine / Rotary Piston Engine / Rotary... more
Nitrous oxide is a substance composed of two molecules of nitrogen linked to one of oxygen. Due to the high concentration of O2 in its composition in relation to air, the gas has a great oxidizing power when exposed to high temperature.... more
Results of experiments and data analysis on turbulent flame propagation in obstructed channels are presented. The data cover a wide range of mixtures: H2/air, H2/air/steam (from lean to rich) at normal and elevated initial temperatures... more
Thesis by Guido A. Danieli, 1976 (MIT) 159 pages german keywords: Wankelmotor / Kreiskolbenmotor English Keywords: Wankel Engine / Wankel Rotary Engine / Rotary Piston Engine / Rotary Combustion Engine based on Mazda 12A engine >... more
Atomization, vaporization, turbulent mixing, and the chemical kinetics of a liquid fuel impact the combustion efficiency, stability, and emissions within IC engines. When fuels with varying physical properties are used in the same fuel... more
Carbon dioxide emissions are considered one of the most important factors that cause global warming. For this reason, it is suggested to burn fuels using an oxidizer mixture consisting of oxygen and carbon dioxide rather than the... more
Experimental data and numerical simulations on flame acceleration, shock-flame interaction and deflagration-to-detonation transition mechanism for stoichiometric hydrogen-oxygen mixtures at reduced pressure in relatively short tubes have... more
This study investigates the impact of pressure and dilution on combustion behavior of of C2H6/air/N2 mixtures within an externally heated micro-tube using both experimental and analytical techniques. Experiments are conducted for... more
Motivation - Edge detection has been a tricky issue since the 1960s advent of computer science. Edge detection serves two main purposes; for object identification, and manipulation in the realm of robotics, as well as intricate image... more
The effect of acetone on the laminar flame speed of methane/air mixtures is investigated over a range of stoichiometries at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. The liquid acetone is vaporised and seeded into the methane/air mixture... more
The stabilizing, amorphous alumina (Al 2 O 3) passivation layer surrounding aluminum (Al) particles participates in reactions that lower barriers to bulk Al oxidation. The behavior has been observed in thermites comprised of nanoscale Al... more
Laminar flame speeds of lean premixed H 2 /CO/air mixtures were measured in the counterflow configuration over a wide range of H 2 content at lean conditions. The values were determined by extrapolating the referenced flame speed to zero... more
The hydrogen oxidation chemistry constitutes the foundation of the kinetics of all carbon- and hydrogen-containing fuels. The validation of rate constants of hydrogen-related reactions can be complicated by uncertainties associated with... more
The response of premixed hydrogen/air flames propagating outwardly through moderately inhomogeneous fuel distributions and subjected to stretch and simultaneous pressure and equivalence ratio oscillations was explored computationally... more
A simple algebraic model for the Favre averaged scalar dissipation rate, c, in high Damkohler number premixed flames is obtained from its transport equation by balancing the leading order terms. Recently proposed models for the dominant... more
Sound waves are persistent in everyday life, although they are never seen. The particles of the average vibrations are parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. In this article, the effect of changing the frequency of the... more
Post injection is a multiple-injection strategy that is commonly used as a particulate matter control measure to reduce soot emissions, yet the mechanisms and the interactions between the main and post injections are only vaguely... more
Measurement of curvature of the flamefront of premixed turbulent flames is important for the validation of numerical models for combustion. In this work, curvature is measured from contours that outline the flamefront, which are generated... more
A set of tribrachial flames of n-heptane/air is simulated with finite rate chemistry and detailed transport in a realistic laminar jet configuration for which experimental data are available. The flames differ by the temperature of the... more
