Heavy-duty over-the-road trucks require periodic active diesel particulate filter regeneration to clean the filter of stored particulate matter. These events require sustained temperatures between 500 and 600°C to complete the regeneration process. Engine operation during typical 65mile/h highway cruise conditions (1200 rpm/7.6 bar) results in temperatures of approximately 350°C, and can reach ...

accelerated deactivation of co/al2o3 catalysts in fischer-tropsch synthesis and the effect of re and ru as the catalytic promoters are reported. 15wt% co/al2o3 catalyst and 1wt% ru and 1.4wt% re  promoted cobalt catalysts have been formulated and extensively characterized. the deactivation of the unpromoted cobalt catalyst and those promoted with re and ru were studied by accelerated method at ...

Increasing oil prices and emission legislation have forced automotive company to investigate new methods technologies reduce the harmful effect produced from motor vehicle, particularly CO2 (Carbon-Dioxide).A lot of studies research been put into in order achieve a zero vehicle with usage electricity rather than fossil fuel, but challenge cost environmental makes an IC engine is still being pre...

The experimental study was conducted to investigate the effects of different opening ranges of waste gate of a turbocharged medium displacement spark ignition engine on improving work parameters such as exhaust emission, torque characteristics and fuel consumption. The object of the experimental tests was an engine with modified intake and exhaust manifolds. The intake and exhaust manifold modi...

Background: Heart valve disease gradually increases the pressure in the heart chambers and impairs heart pumping. It influences on quality of life due to low output, disability, fear, amnesia, anxiety, and depression. Although most of signs and symptoms in patients with heart valve diseases may significantly decrease after valve replacement surgery, there is limited information about the impact...

Although catalyst deactivation rate greatly varies depending on many factors, including the catalyst structure, reactor feed composition, and operating conditions; it is usually inevitable. Since catalyst deactivation modeling has so far been poorly addressed in the literature, in the present study, nine experimental sets of cobalt based Fischer-Tropsch catalysts activity-time data were conside...

Opioid mechanisms are involved in the control of water and NaCl intake and opioid receptors are present in the lateral parabrachial nucleus (LPBN), a site of important inhibitory mechanisms related to the control of sodium appetite. Therefore, in the present study we investigated the effects of opioid receptor activation in the LPBN on 0.3 M NaCl and water intake in rats. Male Holtzman rats wit...

An investigation into in-cylinder swirl and tumble flow characteristics with reduced maximum valve lifts (MVL) is presented. The experimental work was conducted in the modified four-valve optical spark-ignition (SI) test engine with three different MVL. Particle image velocimetry (PIV) was employed for measuring in-cylinder air motion and measurement results were analyzed for examining flow fie...
