An experimental study of the combustion of an aerosol of coarse magnesium particles in microgravity is reported. Particles with sizes between 180–250 mm were aerosolized in a 0.5-L combustion chamber and ignited in a constant-pressure, microgravity environment. Two flame images were produced simultaneously using interference filters separating adjacent MgO and black body radiation bands at 500 ...

Amine libraries and their derivatives are important targets for high throughput synthesis because of their versatility as medicinal agents and agrochemicals. As a part of our efforts towards automated chemical library synthesis, a titanium(IV) isopropoxide mediated solution phase reductive amination protocol was successfully translated to automation on the Trident(TM) library synthesizer of Arg...

In this study, the solution combustion method as a simple, fast, and cost-effective method was utilizedfor the fabrication of spinel nickel aluminate as a stable material to use in the esterification reaction.The effect of fuel amount (urea) as an important parameter of the solution combustion method on thestructure, properties, and performance of the sample was evaluated. The...

However, these other means (e.g., speaker actuation) tend to be bulky, have limited operating range, or have other undesirable side effects. In comparison, liquid fuel modulation is compact, more practical, and can deliver the most energy with the least effort. based control approach recently found to be effective for suppressing combustion instabilities in gas turbines. A control law formulate...
