Performance analysis of biogas premixed charge diesel dual fuelled engine

This paper presents the technical performance measurements of biogas premixed charge diesel dual fuelled engine. A 4-stroke research diesel engine was used for the performance analysis. The performance parameters like engine brake power, brake specific fuel consumption, volumetric efficiency and brake thermal efficiency were measured and compared with conventional diesel with different proporti...

Application of Pulsed Detonation Engine for Electric Power Generation

A compact sized PDE with an i.d. of 0.75 in. and length of 1 m was paired with an automotive turbocharger. The turbine-compressor shaft was used to drive a small ac generator by means of speed reduction wheels. The PDE was tested with propane-oxygen mixture at 15 Hz for a period of about 20 s. The turbine spun up to a speed of 127,000 rpm, whilst the generator produced electric power at 27 W an...

JOTS v37n2 - Innovative Rotary Displacer Stirling Engine: Sustainable Power Generation for Private and Fleet Vehicle Applications

The Stirling cycle and related terminology is defined. Selected contemporary research involving the cycle in environmentally friendly applications is cited. Three conventional engine configurations that utilize a reciprocating power piston and crank shaft (the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma) are characterized, in terms of minimum number of components, advantages, and disadvantages. A new type of Stirli...
