Dissemination Challenges of Liquefied Petroleum Gas in Rural India: Perspectives from the Field

Negotiating Access: The Social Process of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Cookstove Dissemination Intervention in Himachal Pradesh, India

For decades, governments and aid agencies have disseminated millions of improved cooking devices and fuels to address a variety of environmental, health, and livelihood issues in the developing world. This paper is an ethnographic case study of a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cookstove intervention by a community-based organization, Jagriti, to disseminate LPGs to hill women in the Indian state...

Electroencephalographic studies on liquefied petroleum gas poisoning in rabbits.

KOMURA, S., UEDA, M. and FUJIMURA, K. Electroencephalographic Studies on Liquefied Petroleum Gas Poisoning in Rabbits. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1973, 111 (1), 33-40 -Rabbits were put into a special box which had a gas-exit and an upperpositioned gas-inlet, from which the Japanese Industrial Standard No. 3 Liquefied Petroleum Gas (L.P.G.) was distributed on equal proportion. The changes in the behav...

Feasibility Study of Liquefied Natural Gas Project for the "South-Pars" Gas Field of Iran

A Consequence Analysis of the Explosion of Spherical Tanks Containing Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)

A consequence analysis was performed in one of the gas refineries in Iran to investigate the risks andpotential losses resulted from accidents. Specifically, the consequences of an explosion in LPGspherical tanks were modeled using PHAST and MATLAB software. In this paper, three methods ofcalculation of PHAST software TNT, multi-energy, and BST were used. The results showed th...

Estimation of the Stoichiometric Air-Fuel Ratio in Liquefied Petroleum Gas-Injected Engines

Air-fuel ratio control in gasoline engines has so far relied upon the fact that the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio of gasoline is an identified constant, largely thanks to its consistent chemical composition. In the case of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), chemical composition is subject to high variability due to geological and economic factors, amongst others. The implication of this variability...
