Preliminary Experimental Analysis of Alcohol-Kerosene Blend for Commercial Aviation

Teh aim of dis work is to provide insight into alcohol-kerosene fuels and their promising use as an alternative in commercial aviation. A detailed chemical and physical experimental analysis is drawn, wif a focus on teh advantage of teh isopropanol-kerosene blend. Despite reported beneficial isopropanol effects on retarding fuel combustion, knocking prevention, and much lower emissions, few...

Energetic constraints on avian incubation: studies

Field studies were conducted with "three species of passerine, in order to investigate the possibility that an energetic constraint limits reproduction during incubation. Swallows (Hirundo rustiea), Dippers (Cinelus einelus) and Great Tits (Parus nlajor) were studied at sites in Central Scotland. All three species exhibit gynelateral intermittent incubation, so time and energy must be allocated...

Preliminary results on dynamic analysis of a new test rig for wheel-rail contact studies

A new reduced–scale test rig is developed owing to significantly contribute to the applicability of the laboratory tests on rolling contact fatigue (RCF) in wheel-rail material. This paper introduces the dynamic analysis of the test rig, in order to assess the vibration behaviour of the system with respect to contact phenomenon. Finite element modelling (FEM) is used to simulate the mecha...

Ethanol-Kerosene Blends: Fuel Option for Kerosene Wick Stove

In order to solve energy crisis, the search for alternative fuel is extensively important. Alternative fuels selected should be renewable, sustainable and eco-friendly. In India, kerosene is also used as a fuel in cooking stove. Kerosene contains impurities like sulphur, aromatics and hydrocarbons, which causes environmental degradation. In this experimental investigation, blends of ethanol and...
