In-cylinder Combustion Modeling with Simplified Chemistry

A. Roubaud**, V. Mahulkar, P. Leyland and D. Favrat Laboratory for Industrial Energy systems, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne, Switzerland J.B. Vos CFS engineering, Scientific Park, Lausanne, Switzerland Abstract This paper deals with the simulation of HCCI combustion based on a generic rapid compression machine experiment as a test bed, and using a coupled CFD code-chemical k...

Remote-controlled experiments with cloud chemistry.

As a group of ‘green’ chemists from around the world, much of our work involves inventing or developing cleaner processes for making known chemicals rather than synthesizing compounds for the first time1. Increasingly, such processes involve complex reactors that are expensive and difficult to obtain in some of the countries where we work. So, how can we continue to participate effectively in t...

A simplified green chemistry approach to the Biginelli reaction using !Grindstone Chemistry"

Grindstone Chemistry––a greatly evolved version of Toda"s method of grinding solids together for solvent-free chemical reactions––has been described and its usefulness illustrated by the successful application of this technique to a simplified process for conducting the multi-component Biginelli reaction for the synthesis of physiologically active tetrahydropyrimidinones. ! 2004 Published by El...

Quantifying Measurement Uncertainty in Analytical Chemistry – a Simplified Practical Approach

Following a simple and practical approach can minimize the headaches of calculating the components of measurement uncertainty. Basic requirements for planning an analysis, realistically estimating the magnitude of uncertainty sources, and combining uncertainty components will be presented using examples of analytical chemistry methods.
